Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man is a 1991 action film set in the then future year of 1996, where a former rodeo rider (Don Johnson) and an outlaw biker (Mickey Rourke) get together to find a way to save the Burbank bar of an old friend. The film was directed by Simon Wincer.
The following weapons were used in the film Harley Davidson and the Marlboro Man:
Magnum Research Inc. Mark VII Desert Eagle
Harley Davidson (Mickey Rourke) obtains this .44 Magnum Desert Eagle near the beginning from the thug holding up the gas station. He then gives it to Marlboro (Don Johnson) as a birthday present, who uses it many times throughout the rest of the movie.
Ruger Super Blackhawk
Harley Davidson (Mickey Rourke) obtains this single-action .454 Casull converted Ruger Super Blackhawk near the end of the movie and uses it in the final battle.
Ruger Redhawk
After his Steyr AUG is empty, Alexander (Daniel Baldwin) draws the Ruger Redhawk .44 Magnum revolver and takes Marlboro hostage with it. Harley then wounds Alexander and Marlboro (Don Johnson) picks the revolver up and joins Harley in riddling Alexander with a barrage of bullets.
Smith & Wesson Model 686
Two Smith & Wesson Model 686 .357 Magnum revolvers are obtained by the two armored car guards (Jordan Lund) and (Steve Tannen) then used by both Harley Davidson (Mickey Rourke) and Marlboro (Don Johnson) in a few scenes after.
Glock 17
LAPD officer Virginia Slim (Chelsea Field) carries a Glock 17 as her duty pistol and draws it when she pulls Marlboro over despite Glocks not being approved for LAPD service till 2002. Note: It was hinted in the beginning this film is set in the not too distant future, so it is possible they were using the correct sidearm, for the future time.
Winchester Model 1300 Defender
Harley Davidson (Mickey Rourke) uses a Winchester 1300 Defender during the shootout and later, Jack Daniels (Big John Studd) then uses it in the bar gunfight scene.
Steyr AUG
All the Kevlar Trenchcoat-wearing henchmen including their leader Alexander (Daniel Baldwin) carry Steyr AUG carbine assault rifles with 16" barrels (versus the standard 20").
Heckler and Koch MP5KA4
The Heckler & Koch MP5KA4 is used throughout the film, mainly by Jose (Eloy Casados), who carries two with magazines clamped together.
Ithaca 37
The Ithaca 37 shotguns are held on Harley and Marlboro by thugs of Chance Wilder (Tom Sizemore) when they go to his office building.
Trivia
John Taffin mentions in one of his books ("big bore handguns" or "big bore sixguns") that the Ruger used in the movie was customized by gunsmith Andy Horvath. It seems that someone from the movie's crew read an article by Taffin about his own Ruger, built by Horvath. The producers tried to Borrow Taffin's revolver but he declined and suggested them to contact Horvath. The gunsmith then built several revolvers for the movie and (reportedly) for Don Johnson's and Mickey Rourke's personal use. It is doubtful that the revolvers used in the movie were actually converted to .454 Casull.
