Hidden Assassin is a 1995 independent action film starring Dolph Lundgren, John Ashton and Maruschka Detmers directed by Ted Kotcheff, whose previous works include First Blood and Uncommon Valor. Released theatrically in most European markets as "The Shooter," the film was retitled when it was purchased by Miramax for an American home video release. Originally due to be filmed in Paris, filming was shifted to Prague, partly for cost reasons. There are two versions, a 89 minute American edit, and a 104 minute international edit.

Handguns
SIG-Sauer P228
Most of the characters, including Michael Dane (Dolph Lundgren) and Alex Reed (John Ashton) use SIG-Sauer P228 pistols in the film. There are some continuity errors where the P228 switches with an Astra A-100 however.

A henchman (Michael Rogers) uses a Desert Eagle Mark VII until it is taken away by Simone Rosset (Maruschka Detmers). She uses it and then gives it to Michael Dane.
Smith & Wesson Model 19
Prague police carry Smith & Wesson Model 19's as their service weapons. Simone's friend Marcus (Petr Drozda) also carries one, until it is taken away by Michael Dane. Michael uses it when tracking Simone on a train.
Astra 300
Belgado (Pablo Scola) uses a nickel-plated Astra 300 at the end of the film.
