Robert Rodriguez mentioned in the DVD commentary for the film that since they were firing blanks in firearms that were not blank-converted, they would often only be able to get one shot before it jammed. | ||

El Mariachi is the 1992 Mexican language action film that marked the first feature film directed by Robert Rodriguez. The film also marked the beginning of Rodriguez's "Mariachi" trilogy, which includes Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Because of the film's extremely low budget, some guns were actual guns taken from local police station and other were either BB guns or other toy guns.
