The Shadow (1994)

The Shadow is the 1994 film adaptation of the 1930's radio and pulp novel hero. Alec Baldwin stars as Lamont Cranston, who with his ability to cloud men's minds, fights the criminal syndicate in the city as "The Shadow".

The following firearms can be seen in the film The Shadow:


LAR Grizzly Pistol .45 Win Mag

The pistols used by the Shadow (Alec Baldwin) were highly customized .45 Win Mag LAR Grizzly Pistols. The pistols, named Silver Heat, were custom built by L.A.R. Manufacturing Inc., who built four pistols for the film, backdating their Grizzly to look like an oversized M1911 by extending the slide and frame.
