Double Impact (1991)

Double Impact is a 1991 action film that focuses on a pair of twins who are raised in separate countries and environments after their parents are killed in an ambush. Reunited in Hong Kong, the twins join forces to take down the man responsible for their parents' deaths and stealing their rightful inheritance. Jean-Claude Van Damme portrays both Chad, a French-raised karate instructor fond of short-shorts and the color pink, and Alex, a low level crook raised in Hong Kong and fond of cigars and leather jackets.


The following weapons were used in the film Double Impact:


Handguns

Beretta 92FS

Alex Wagner (Jean-Claude Van Damme) uses a Beretta 92FS during the raid on the warehouse, chambering it upside down after a dive roll into combat. He later draws his second Beretta and dual-wields them for the duration of the warehouse shootout.

Alex racks the slide of the Beretta, and the round that was already in the chamber is lost.

Desert Eagle Mark VII

A Desert Eagle MK VII fitted with a cumbersome 1980s laser sight mounted on top is held by a Triad in the drug factory shootout. Judging by the size of the bore, it was most likely a .357 Magnum version (being the most popular version in movies released in the early 1990s).

Look at the size of the bore. Very small considering the actor isn't a big man either.

Colt M1911A1

A Colt M1911A1 is used by Alex in the abandoned hotel room. Chad claims it will not work, and Alex responds by firing it in excess of ten times into a window.

Alex has a Smith & Wesson Model 60 put to his cheek. Some may ask, how is the trigger back that far and a round not have gone off? Note that the hammer is cocked, and the revolver is now in single-action mode. Therefore, the trigger SHOULD be that far back, and NOT a movie mistake.

Walther P38

A Walther P38 is used by one of the Triad members in the opening shootout.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3s are seen in the hands of Triad members at the drug warehouse, and are also used by Chad during the raid. It is fitted with a telescoping stock, and a slimline forearm.

M16A1

An M16A1 is used by Triad gangsters during the beach hotel attack, some with Vietnamese style short magazines. One is recovered and used by Chad. Distinguishable as an A1 due to the triangular foregrip and old-style pistol grip.
