Mesrine is a two-part 2008 French-Canadian film directed by Jean-François Richet and starring Vincent Cassel.
Part One is Known as Killer Instinct (L'instinct de mort in the original French title), while Part Two is known as Public Enemy Number 1 (L'ennemi public n° 1 in the original French title).
Killer Instinct's script was based on the autobiographical book L'instinct de mort by French gangster Jacques Mesrine, and details his rise in the Paris criminal underworld after serving in the army in Algeria. The movie follows his early exploits in Paris, and later in Canada.

After this event he turns into a murderer, not for the Government but for his own gain. Mesrine has an almost identical pistol upon his arrival back from in Paris, his new one seems to be nickle plated though, not blued like the one in this picture.Error creating thumbnail: File missingHis own pistol is turned against him by his new boss, Guido (played by Gérard Depardieu) who lifted it from him when they hugged for the first time. This is the pistol that Mesrine uses throughout most of the rest of the movie.
I am still trying to confirm these weapons - if anyone has any ideas please write below!

It is only seen very briefly, and only in this one scene. Anybody know this weapon?File:Mesrineroadblock2.jpgIn the United States he is finally caught by Sheriffs who set up a roadblock. They carry a number of shotguns and revolvers. Anyone know this one?File:Mesrinesrevolver1.jpgAfter they have been stopped by the roadblock, Mesrine's girlfriend reaches for a small revolver. He wisely disarms her and throws the weapon down into the floor of the car.
