The Dark Knight (2008)


WZ.83 Pallad D

One of the Joker's henchmen named "Happy" uses a 40mm grenade launcher to break a window and to fire a grappling hook to the bank's roof. They are later seen used once more by his men to fire a line between two buildings to take down a GCPD helicopter.

Beretta 92SB-C

A Beretta 92SB-C equipped with a suppressor is used by one of The Joker's henchmen, "Happy" during the bank heist to kill "Dopey". An officer is also seen pointing his 92SB-C at The Joker when he takes Detective Stephens (Keith Szarabajka) hostage with a shard of glass, demanding to get his one phone call.

Glock 17

"Grumpy", one of The Joker's henchmen in the bank heist, uses a Glock 17 to kill "Happy" in the vault. He also uses it to hold up The Joker, suspecting he will kill him as well, only for Joker to tell him he is going to kill the bus driver. This confuses Grumpy until he is hit by a bus that smashes into the building. Several other Glocks are seen in the hands of Lau's henchmen and Gotham City police throughout the film.

Glock 17 (Converted to full-auto)

The Joker (Heath Ledger) uses a Glock 17 that has been converted to full-auto, as the gun lacks the Glock 18's firing selector switch on the side of the slide. His Glock is fitted with a stainless slide and a G18's standard 33 round magazine. He is seen using it as his main weapon several times in the film. For someone as bizarre as The Joker, the gun fits him well as it is very rare, destructive, stylish although in some ways impractical. The extremely high cyclic rate makes it difficult to control, although in the hands of an experienced shooter, it is all the more deadly. The armorer referred to the gun as a Glock 18, but this is less of a mouthful then "Glock 17 converted to full-auto to resemble a Glock 18". Not to mention, he likely assumed no one would know the difference anyway. The armorer also mentioned how three Glocks were used, including two converted Glock 17s and one flashpaper model for close shooting scenes where blanks are harmful. Trivia: To make the Joker's Glock sound more impressive, the sound editors mixed in the report of a GE M134 Minigun. Despite the extreme cyclic rate difference (roughly 1300rpm to 4000rpm), this sound fits quite nicely.

Glock 26 (fictional mock up)

During Harvey Dent's (Aaron Eckhart) cross-examination in a trial of mobster Sal Maroni (Eric Roberts), the witness Al Rossi(Michael Vieau) draws a Glock 26 cosmetically changed to look like a different gun. He pulls the trigger, but the gun misfires. After dissarming Rossi, Dent identifies the gun as a "Carbon fiber... 28 Caliber, made in China." Though, admittedly, this is just movie-talk, and therefore not actually pertaining to the gun.

Blaser 93

Blaser 93 sniper rifles are used by the GCPD SWAT snipers over looking the building The Joker is in from the neighboring rooftop. While the poor light makes them kind of hard to see, the basic shape of the rifle and the obvious straight pull bolt-action makes it easy to identify.

M1 Garand

The Joker (Heath Ledger) and his men use M1 Garand rifles during the assassination attempt on the Mayor while disguised as the honor guard who carry out the 3-volley salute during the funeral of Commissioner Loeb (Colin McFarlane). Since funeral procession guns are blank converted or fitted with blank adapters (they could lack both but these guns clearly fire in semi-automatic), the guns are either following the movie myth that blanks and live rounds both work in live guns, or they removed the adapters and are firing live rounds into the air for the first two volleys!

  • Note: Theoretically, (however unlikely) the rifles might be unmodified Garands firing grenade-launching blanks during the first two volleys.

Norinco Type 69 RPG

A Chinese Norinco Type 69 copy of the RPG-7 is used by the Joker during the armored car chase scene. He uses it to destroy a police cruiser, but fails to hit the armored car protecting Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart). When Batman (Christian Bale) joins the chase, The Joker fires on the armored car again, only to hit the Tumbler inadvertently (after Batman bridges his Tumbler in front of the van). The Tumbler damaged beyond viability, Batman is forced to switch to his secondary vehicle hidden within the Tumbler, the Batpod. The SWAT officer riding shotgun referred to this rocket propelled grenade launcher as a "bazooka", which meant that this officer probably did not have any prior military experience before joining GCPD.

Remington 870 Sawed-off

During the bank robbery, the Bank Manager (William Fichtner) uses a sawed-off Remington 870 shotgun to kill "Chuckles" and fires at Joker and Grumpy, firing five shots in total. Grumpy asks Joker if he is out and when he jumps up to fire, an unexpected sixth round grazes him before Joker shoots him. After he kills his remaining men, Joker takes the shotgun for himself. He is later seen using it to gun down a traffic cop who walks up to his semi-truck and to fire at the SWAT van transporting Harvey Dent before switching to his RPG. Multiple times in the film he is seen firing the gun with one hand, which in reality would produce more recoil than shown. Since blanks produce little to no recoil, this factor doesn't present a problem in movie guns.

Double Barrel Shotgun

A Double Barrel Shotgun is seen wielded by one of The Joker's henchmen at the fundraiser. Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) disarms the henchman of the shotgun and then disassembles the gun. This gun was likely selected because it is arguably one of the simplest guns to disassemble of many.

  • It looks like a Colt Police Positive . - Kenny99 00:39, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
No way, it's too huge. Might be a S&W M29 Performance Center. -MT2008
That's true it does have a full underlug but I'm not sure if its a Performance center gun

no. its the Colt Anaconda, possbile the raging bull

It's a medium or large-frame DA, Smith & Wesson type, with a full-lug barrel, a ventilated rib, and a high (S&W-type) ramped front sight. This all indicates either a Taurus or Rossi. The barrel contour and the shape of the vents under the rib are wrong for a Raging Bull .454, so it's more likely one of the .357s, the Taurus 669 or the Rossi 851.eon

The Joker's Grenades

The Joker, a "man of simple tastes", favors his explosives. Mainly grenades. During the bank robbery, he brings a duffle bag filled with grenades including Mk 2 hand grenades, M26 hand grenades, and M67 hand grenades, which he primes in the bank goers' hands so they are forced to hold the primer handles on. No indication is made that these go off when the lobby is gassed following the Joker's escape. Later when facing the major mob bosses during their meeting, he manages to stop Gambol from attacking by revealing many of these grenades attached to the inside of his jacket, all stringed to the ring attached to his finger.

Batpod

The Batpod is an autonomous vehicle salvaged from the Tumbler. It is equipped with mini-rocket launchers, machine guns and even two grappling hooks, notably used to bring down (or, actually up) The Joker's semi. The mini-rocket launchers are used to clear automobiles immediately after the Batpod breaks off the Tumbler and to remove minor obstacles such as the alley garbage container. The grappling hook guns are first fired at the engine compartment of the semi and then trailing cables are secured around two street posts and then shot again to become anchored to the street. Note that this feat is next to impossible unless the initial hooks actually grab onto the semi's chassis. If they only hook onto the radiator, it would have come off instead of lifting the entire vehicle.
