The Democratic Terrorist (Den Demokratiske Terroristen) is a 1992 Swedish/German/Moroccan thriller directed by Per Berglund starring Stellan Skarsgård as Swedish spy Carl Hamilton. It was based on the 1987 novel of the same name by Jan Guillou. It was the third and final time Skarsgård would play Carl Hamilton. Despite taking place in Sweden and Germany and starring mostly Swedish and German actors, most of the dialogue is in English.
Carl, seemingly disgraced and dismissed from the Royal Swedish Navy, is tasked with infiltrating a Red Army Faction cell in Hamburg.
The following guns were used in the film The Democratic Terrorist (1992):
As Carl is browsing through the TV while at the GSG9 headquarters, he sees an old news report on the arrest of Andreas Baader and Holger Meins in 1972. A German police officer is seen with a Walther PP while taking a shirt and pants-less Holger Meins into custody.
During their first meeting at the apartment, Carl disarms Friederike of a Walther P38 and throws it away. She is later seen with it again when they talk about committing a robbery together. Monica (Katja Flint) is armed with a Walther P38 while in Stockholm.
Carl takes a SIG-Sauer P225 off a plainclothes police officer who responds to the bank robbery. He unloads it and tosses it in a wastebasket. Carl later identifies it in dialogue as "a SIG-Sauer." Friederike (Susanne Lothar) fires a SIG-Sauer pistol during the apartment assault.
Swedish sailors are seen marching with Carl Gustav M/45B submachine guns with brass catchers in the beginning of the movie when Carl is told about his mission.
GSG 9 officers are armed with Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns. All of them use the original "slimline" handguards and waffle magazines (although a curved magazine is seen briefly in passing.) Carl uses one while training with GSG 9 in the beginning. One of the terrorists is armed with one as well.
During the old news report Carl is watching, on the arrest of Andreas Baader and Holger Meins, a German police officer is seen with Heckler & Koch MP5A2 submachine gun with the original "slimline" handguard and a waffle magazine.
