Revision as of 20:50, 14 January 2014
The following weapons were used in the film Phantoms:
Handguns
Beretta 92F
A Beretta 92F is seen in the hand of the deceased Deputy Paul Henderson (Larry Odien) when the sisters find him at the sheriff's substation. They find the expended shell casings but not the actual slugs, which were shot into Henderson's killer. The absence of his attacker's blood (to say nothing of the bizarre condition of Henderson's corpse) is one of the early mysteries of the film. The Beretta 92F also is carried by Deputy Steve Shanning (Nicky Katt) and is used by Sheriff Bryce Hammond (Ben Affleck) near the climax.
SIG-Sauer P226
Sheriff Bryce Hammond (Ben Affleck) carries a SIG-Sauer P226 as his sidearm throughout the movie, although he later switches to a Beretta 92F.
Smith & Wesson Model 27
Deputy Stu Wargle (Liev Schreiber) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 27 as his sidearm.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 Cruiser
Dr. Jennifer Pailey (Joanna Going), after finding the dead Deputy Henderson, smashes open the sheriff's gun cabinet and appropriates a Mossberg 500 shotgun. Her sister, Lisa (Rose McGowan) rightly points out that a gun didn't do Henderson any good, but Jennifer insists on taking one "For whatever." She proves incapable of loading it properly, despite claiming to "understand the concept," leaving Lisa, who was raised in L.A., to load it for her.
Ithaca 37
When Jennifer smashes open the gun cabinet in the sheriff's station there are two Ithaca 37 shotguns seen. Bryce, Lisa and Stu are seen with the shotgun at various times in the film.
Winchester Model 1912
A Winchester Model 1912 shotgun is seen in the sheriff's gun cabinet.
Winchester Model 1897
A Winchester Model 1897 shotgun is seen in the sheriff's gun cabinet.
Rifles
MGC M16 Replica
The military personnel at the checkpoint outside of Snowfield, Colorado all carry MGC M16 replica rifles that are fitted with M16A2 foregrips and "birdcage" flash hiders to make them look like M16A2s. MGC M16s fitted with replica M203 grenade launchers are also carried by some of the Biological Warfare Unit soldiers, and are also seen in the armory of the unit's transport vehicle.
Ruger AC556 Muzzelite Bullpup
Ruger AC556 assault rifles fitted with Muzzelite Bullpup stocks, laser sights, forward vertical grips, and night-vision scopes are carried by the Biological Warfare Unit soldiers in MOPP suits who accompany the science team into Snowfield. The Rugers used in Phantoms are the same rifles that were originally built for the movie Tank Girl, though they are fitted with different accessories in this film; they were also later re-used in several episodes of Firefly.
Other
Defense Technologies 1315 37mm
Def Tech 1315 37mm launchers are used by Sheriff Bryce Hammond (Ben Affleck) and Dr. Jennifer Pailey (Joanna Going) to fire the bacteria canisters into the shape-changer.
M203 Grenade Launcher
One of the soldiers appears to carry the MGC M16 Replicafitted with an M203 grenade launcher while searching a home.
