Handguns

Beretta Model 70

A Beretta Model 70 is Shûji Kamimura's (Jô Shishido) firearm of choice. One of Shimazu's thugs fires a Beretta Model 70 during the final shootout. Shun Shiozaki (Jerry Fujio) holds suppressed Beretta Model 70 on the movie poster and promo shots, but not in the actual film. Note that the Beretta has a cross-bolt safety that was used only for a short time before is was replaced with a thumb-activated frame-mounted safety that is seen on most Model 70s.

Luger P08

Miyoshi (Akio Miyabe) uses a heavily customized Luger P08 throughout the movie. It's obviously a replica, likely a Japanese Modelgun.

Miyoshi aims his Luger during the final shootout. It's impossible to attach a scope in such a way on a real Luger, as it would prevent the action from properly working.

FN Model 1910

A suppressed FN Model 1910-style pistol appears in the hands of one of Shimazu's thugs (Hiroshi Chô). Another one of Shimazu's thugs fires a similar pistol during the final shootout. It is likely the same prop being reused. The screen gun has raised sights that don't exist on the authentic FN Model 1910, so, it's most likely a Japanese Modelgun replica.

Howa M300

During firing scenes, Shûji's Stirling Model 20 turns into a Howa M300. One of Shimazu's thugs fires a Howa M300 during the final shootout. Miyoshi (Akio Miyabe) fires a Howa M300 to check the bulletproof glass. It is wrongly stated to be chambered in .45 caliber during this scene.
