Miracle Mile is a 1988 thriller written and directed by Steve De Jarnatt that stars Anthony Edwards as a musician who, shortly after meeting the love of his life, randomly answers a ringing pay phone. He hears that the government has launched a pre-emptive nuclear strike on the Soviet Union and that now he only has 70 minutes before the Soviet missles arrive to destroy Los Angeles. The majority of the film occurs in real time and takes place on the "Miracle Mile" section of Wilshire Boulevard in Los Angeles.
The following firearms were used in the film Miracle Mile:
Colt Python
Fred the Cook (Robert DoQui) threatens Harry Washello (Anthony Edwards) with a snub-nosed Colt Python when the latter tells him and others about the impending nuclear strike. Harry later takes it and uses it for the rest of the movie, on one occasion, giving it to Julie (Mare Winningham). LAPD officers that stop Harry and Wilson (Mykelti Williamson) at a gas station use full size Pythons. When Wilson drenches one of the officers (Cynthia Phillips) with gasoline, she tries to shoot him, but the shot sets her on fire.
Sawed-off Double Barrel Shotgun
The nightwatchman (Edward Bunker) uses an unknown 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun when Harry and Wilson goes to his gas station.
Mossberg Model 464
Lucy Peters (Lou Hancock) draws a Mossberg Model 464 on Harry when he enters her apartment looking for Julie.
Smith & Wesson Model 629
An irate man that chases Harry through the street used a Smith & Wesson Model 629. It appears that another man uses one to shoot a TV presenter and his cameraman.
Uzi
Two girls credited as the "Beverley Hills Chicks" (Jenette Goldstein and Victoria Powells) carry Uzis when they go to catch a helicopter to escape the impending blast.
Ithaca 37
What appears to be a Ithaca 37 shotgun is sitting in the police car that Harry and Wilson take.
