The following guns were used in 3000 Miles to Graceland:


Hand Guns

M1911A1

Thomas Murphy (Kevin Costner) carries a pair of M1911A1s which he wields akimbo during the Casino heist. At one point in the movie, he loses these guns after being arrested, and later recieves a replacement from his friend Jack (Howie Long).

During one scene of the Casino Heist, a Las Vagas Police Officer attacks Murphy and Michael's group with a SIG P226 which breifly changes to an M1911A1.

Just before the warehouse shoot out, Jack (Howie Long) is seen loading a Smith & Wesson Model 686. Michael (Kurt Russell) catches Jack off guard and disarms him. He holds the weapon to Jack and Murphy (Kevin Costner) until SWAT shows up and he drops the weapon.

Beretta M93R

Franklin (Bokeem Woodbine) uses a Beretta M93R during the Casino heist. The weapon appears to be converted to full auto, and Franklin fires it with no concern of innocent bystanders.

SIG-Saur P226

When the group retreats to the elevator, a Las Vegas Police Officer orders the group to stop and then attacks them with a SIG P226. He shoots Franklin (Bokeem Woodbine) several times before Murphy (Kevin Costner) disarms him and shoots him in the head.

Near the end of the movie, Jack briefly draws his own SIG P226 when Michael and Murphy have their standoff in the warehouse.

Smith & Wesson 5946

Michael carries a Smith & Wesson 5946 which he uses to threaten Cybil (Courtney Cox) after she refuses to hand over her car. (Hey, he already gave her a big wad of cash, what else is he gonna do?)

Colt Single Action Army

Murphy gets pulled over by an officer carrying a Single Action Army, which he uses when he challanges Murphy to a quick draw duel.

The front sight has been filed off for a faster draw. The guy playing this sheriff is a quickdraw shooter, and removing the front sights is a pro technique if you can quick draw for real. - Gunmaster45

The lack of a firing pin on the hammer means the revolver has a transfer bar safety and is likely a Ruger Vaquero. This is a very popular revolver to be modified for quick draw competition.

Shotguns

Franchi SPAS 12

Murphy's (Kevin Costner) main weapon during the Casino heist is the Italian Franchi SPAS 12 shotgun. He kills several security guards, reloads mid fight, and proceeds to kill several more guards before discarding the weapon due to it's long reload time.

Mossberg 500

Just before the final shoot out in the warehouse, Murphy (Kevin Costner) is given a short barreled Mossberg 500 with rear and foreward pistol grips. He uses the weapon to shoot Michael (Kurt Russell) after SWAT shows up, and breifly uses it to shoot at the SWAT team members.

Sub Machine Guns

FN P90

Hamilton (Ice-T) uses a pair of FN P90s wielded akimbo during the warehouse shoot out. In one of the more cool looking (and kind of stupid) scenes, Hamilton rides a zip line upside down, spraying both FN P90s at the SWAT officers. He is quickly gunned down, of course, for exposing himself as such an easy target.

Assault Rifles

Ruger Mini-14

The personal security guards of the casino manager are, just like himself, armed with Ruger Mini-14s during the closing scenes of the Casino Heist. Two of the guards exchange fire with Murphy and Michael's group as the retreat to their getaway helicopter.

Custom Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistols

During the casino heist, Gus (David Arquette) and Franklin (Bokeem Woodbine) use strange-looking compact assault rifles. One of these weapons is also used near the end of the movie, when Murphy (Kevin Costner) uses one for the first part of the warehouse shoot out. These weapons are custom-built Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistol "carbines". They were clearly built by fitting Patriot Pistol upper receiver/barrel assembles to the lower receiver/telescoping stocks of some other M16 carbine variants, mostly likely the XM177 or Model 654. The armorers then added M4-style carry handles and 100-round Beta-C magazines. Guns similar to these have also been seen in Congo and Soldier (coincidentally, the latter is another movie that starred Kurt Russell).

(Fake) Colt XM177

Hanson (Christian Slater) and Michael (Kurt Russell) use M16 carbine variants that are mocked up to resemble Colt XM177 during the the casino heist. Michael never fires his weapon at any of the security guards, instead shooting the glass above a group of pursuing guards. Michael then passes his gun to Murphy (Kevin Costner) as the group makes their escape to the helicopter.

All of these rifles are fake XM177 rifles which seem to have been built from other AR variants. The real XM177 has a slab-side receiver, which only Michael's gun has (at least when he's in the elevator). The rifles used by the other robbers have both M16A2-style receivers (forward assist, brass deflector, and M16A2-style rear sight) and Model 715-style receivers (forward assist, brass deflector, and M16A1-style rear sight). This means that they're probably other AR carbine variants with chopped barrels and fake XM177 flash hiders fitted. Most of the Hollywood "XM177s" seen in movies are just like these (see also The Rock, for instance).

Michael's weapon had a slab-side receiver (characteristic of the real XM177), but this gun has an M16A2-style receiver. That means it's some other M16 carbine variant with a chopped barrel and fake XM177 flash hider welded on.

Light Machine Guns

Daewoo K3 (visually modified to resemble M249 Paratrooper SAW)

During the final shoot out in the warehouse, Jack (Howie Long) uses a light machine gun which may appear to resemble an M249 Paratrooper SAW against several SWAT officers. However, this weapon is actually a Daewoo K3 that was visually modified to resemble an M249; this is discerned most easily by looking at the front sight After Jack is gunned down while trying to save Murphy (Kevin Costner), Murphy picks up the K3 and uses it for his last stand.

Misc.

Las Vegas Police Officer's P226/M1911
