Revision as of 04:23, 7 August 2007
The following guns were used in the film Desperado
Guitar Case MAC-10
Campa (Carlos Gallardo) shows up to the firefight with a pair of guitar case machine guns. Robert Rodriguez has commented that the guitar case machine guns were built from MAC-10s.
Guitar Case Rocket Launcher
Quino (Albert Michel Jr.) brings a rocket launcher inside of a guitar case to greet Bucho's men.
Ruger P90
El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) packs matching Ruger P90s. Tavo (Tito Larriva) fires a Ruger P90 at El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) as he flees the shootout at the Tarasco bar. It's likely that it's one of Banderas's P90s simply being reused in a different scene. The Ruger P90 is also the pistol Tavo (Tito Larriva) uses to but a bullet through Quentin Tarantino's head.
1911
Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida) is seen with a 1911 early in the film.
Wildey
El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) carries a scoped Wildey Magnum pistol in his guitar case.
Sawn-Off Shotgun
El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) can also be seen firing a sawn-off shotgun, according to Robert Rodriguez the gun itself was made of rubber.
Desert Eagle
Tavo (Tito Larriva) fires a black Desert Eagle of unknown caliber at El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) as he flees the shootout at the Tarasco bar. Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida) also begins to kill his own men with the same black Desert Eagle. El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) later kills one of Bucho's henchmen on the roof of Carolina's (Salma Hayek) bookstore who is holding the same black Desert Eagle.
Beretta 93R
Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida) seems to have a taste for exotic pistols, the Beretta 93R he carries is a very rare version of Beretta's popular 92FS model capable of 3-round burst fire. Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida) passes his 93R to Zamira (Angel Aviles) who makes use of its burst fire capability in the attack on Navajas (Danny Trejo). The Beretta 93R is later reused by one of Bucho's henchmen who fires at El Mariachi as he jumps from the roof of Carolina's (Selma Hayek) book store.
Codpiece Revolver
Although we never see the codpiece revolver fire it's one of the few firearms in the film with dialogue devoted to it. This same codpiece revolver was later reused by Robert Rodriguez in From Dusk Till Dawn.
Unknown Revolver
The Tarasco bartender (Cheech Marin) fires a suppressed revolver of unknown make and model.
MAC-10
Most of Bucho's (Joaquim de Almeida) men are armed with suppressed MAC-10 machine pistols that are most prominently featured in the Tarasco bar shootout. You will recognize the scene between El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas) and Empty Gun Man (Diego Sandoval) as inspiration for a similar scene between Agent Smith (Hugo Weaving) and Neo (Keanu Reeves) in The Matrix.
Colt M733
We see Bucho's (Joaquim de Almeida) men carry and fire the same Colt Commando M733 rifle in several scenes. It's relatively safe to assume the rifle we see is a Colt M733 and not an M4 because the M4 was only officially adopted by the US Military 2 years prior to the films production. Supplies of the M4 would still have been short.
Beretta 92
Empty Gun Man (Diego Sandoval) brings a suppressed Beretta 92 to the Tarasco bar shootout.
