The following guns were used in the film The Rundown:
(Also released under the title "Welcome to the Jungle")
Remington 870 shotguns are used by Hatcher's (Christopher Walken) men. Beck (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) later wields two akimbo (one with wood furniture, one with synthetic) during the shootout at the end of the film, pumping the actions in various manners to chamber the guns.

In real life, the recoil tends to launch the pump back and cause even more recoil, but blanks don't produce enough "kick" to do this, making firing these shotguns easier in the film.Error creating thumbnail: File missingBeck pumps the Remington 870s against a wooden crate, which wouldn't grab the pumps enough to properly chamber them. Likely they edited out any problems and kept rolling. Surely the weapons coordinator for the film was pleased to see how poorly these shotguns were treated. Note the scratches on the wooden pump.File:RundownRem870-5.jpgBeck firing the wood furniture 870.File:RundownRem870-6.jpgReversed shot.Error creating thumbnail: File missingBeck twirls the shotguns under his arms to pump the actions. While cool looking in the film, this is not as easy in real life (know from experiance).Error creating thumbnail: File missingBeck then twirls the guns back to the ready position. Without turning the safeties on, the weight of the guns would cause both triggers to pull, firing the guns early. We never see him turn the safeties on so this is another cool but unlikely action.Error creating thumbnail: File missingBeck holds the two shotguns together to pump the action.Error creating thumbnail: File missingBeck shoulders the two shotguns together and fires. Talk about recoil!
Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2
Browning Automatic Rifles are used by Hatcher's men throughout the film, despite their obsoletion to more modern assault rifles.
Hatcher's men use scoped M14 Rifles during the final shootout in the town. These are semiautomatic M14As or M1As since they are missing the auto fire selector switch. Beck (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) at one point takes one of these rifles and fires it one-handed, despite the 9lb weight.
