Before the excellent 2004 Thomas Jane movie, there was this low budget 1989 "B movie" starring Dolph Lundgren, who also portraying Frank Castle.
The following weapons were used in this movie:
M1911
- The vast majority of characters all carry the M1911 to the exclusion of almost all other pistols.
Uzi
- Yakuza member on the boat is seen with a full sized Uzi.
Micro Uzi
- Used by a lot of the Yakuza killers
Franchi SPAS-12
- Dolph Lundgren uses one at the amusement park
M60
- In the Casino scene, Frank Castle uses an M60, with a long barreled 40mm grenade launcher mounted underneath(!!). Talk about making your primary weapon as heavy as possible! It's not an M203, but some mocked up launcher (see photos).
Mossberg 500
- Frank Castle fires this shotgun at the docks. Amazing how a 7 shot tube can fire 18 shots without reloading.....
Acetylene "non" gun
- Common in movies where they could not use real guns (like in places with noise restrictions, around small children, or close to an actor's head). Also New York City also has draconian anti gun laws, thus these FAKE guns which fire a 'poof' of acetylene flash and smoke are used instead of real blank firing guns in many instances. (Most noticeable in the movie the Siege when used by Denzel Washington). These fake guns look a little similar to major models of handguns (Beretta 92, Glock, M1911) but something about them always looks a little 'off'.
(More to come)
