Lethal Weapon (1987)
The following weapons were used in the movie Lethal Weapon:
Beretta 92
The Beretta 92 is the primary weapon of Detective Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson). Next to Bruce Willis in the Die Hard films, Riggs is probably one of the most consistent and well-known on-screen users of this weapon.
Smith & Wession Model 19
The Smith & Wesson Model 19 is the primary weapon of Detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover). In a famous scene in the movie which is repeated in the second film, Murtaugh rolls his neck before dispatching one of the main villains with a single shot from his Model 19. At one point, Murtaugh gives his revolver to Riggs and challenges him to prove his sincerety in his claims of being suicidal. Riggs then places the barrel in his mouth and slowly squeezes the trigger, Murtaugh blocking the hammer with his finger at the last moment being the only thing that keeps the weapon from firing.
H&K MP5A3
After fighting their way out of the Shadow Company hideout, Riggs comandeers an MP5A3 fitted with a scope from one of the slain Shadow Company henchmen and uses it in a running shootout with Mr. Joshua (Gary Busey) on a crowded L.A. freeway. General Peter McAllister (Mitchell Ryan) also uses one when he captures Riggs earlier in the film.
H&K G3SG/1
In the scene where Riggs and Murtaugh attempt to rescue Murtaugh's daughter Rianne Murtaugh (Traci Wolfe) from Shadow Company, Riggs provides cover for Murtaugh using an H&K G3SG/1, a sniper variant of the G3 assault rifle. He succeeds in taking out several Shadow Company goons and is about to shoot Mr. Joshua when General McAllister interferes and captures him, later seen carrying the rifle across his back while escorting the captured Riggs.
Colt M733
During the ill-fated attempt to rescue Rianne from Shadow Company, at least one of the Shadow Company henchmen can be seen carrying a M733 carbine, using it to shoot Murtaugh's station wagon to pieces and force him to surrender. Mr. Joshua is also seen using one fitted with a scope atop the carry handle; first to assassinate Michael Hunsacker (Tom Atkins) from a helicopter at the funeral of his daughter, then during a running shootout with Riggs on an L.A. freeway, and finally when he reaches Murtaugh's house and starts shooting the place apart.
Smoke Grenade
During the attempt to rescue Rianne, Murtaugh pulls out what appears to be an HE-Frag hand grenade, claiming that he'll kill everyone present including himself and his daughter if she's not released. Mr. Joshua however calls his bluff and shoots him in the shoulder. Murtaugh then weakly tosses it at the Shadow Company goons making them scurry for cover, but it reveals itself to be a smoke grenade disguised as a frag grenade, and is also the signal for Riggs to open fire with his sniper rifle.
Walther PPK
While following up on a lead, Riggs and Murtaugh are jumped by a hoodlum brandishing a shotgun. After Murtaugh wounds him and tries to cuff him, the man pulls a Walther PPK out of his coat, to which Riggs reacts by fatally shooting him, the hoodlum's death further assured when he falls into a plastic-covered swimming pool.
Remington 870
While following up on a lead, Riggs and Murtaugh are jumped by a hoodlum brandishing a Remington 870 shotgun. Murtaugh is able to disable him with a shot to the leg with his revolver.
M67 Grenade
When attempting to flee from the protagonists, General McAllister's car flips and bursts into flames after Murtaugh shoots and kills the driver. In addition to heroin, the car also contains several M67 hand grenades which are eventually detonated by the fire, killing the General.
