Talk:Headhunters
Hi 'Pawelm', thanks for starting this page! I saw the movie here in Holland a few weeks ago and I was going to put it on IMFDB, but you beat me with a few days hahaha Two remarks; (1) I would change the name of the page from the original name to the international name 'Headhunters', just like on www.imdb.com. And (2) I seem to remember further guns, especially in the security guard's house; a Mini-Uzi, some kind of big revolver and several airgun pistols. Did not buy the DVD because of your entry on IMFDB, look forward to your further work, --PeeWee055 13:23, 10 June 2012 (CDT)
Sure thing, I'll try to update the page soon. BTW, I'm not sure if that stainless handgun is a Taurus? It seems to differ slightly from real life models (or at least I see it that way).
See what you mean; in the bedroom photo there's a second pait of slide serrations on the front and in the fridge image, the grips look funny. Still, I would stick with the Taurus for lack of better alternatives. Take care, --PeeWee055 14:46, 10 June 2012 (CDT)
- I just saw this movie last night in the USA on Netflix. I don't have the ability to capture any still frames from this movie since I do not have my own copy. Like the contributor above, I can recall there being a submachine gun, possibly a Mini-Uzi, although I am not sure on this, and what I suspect was a .357 Magnum Colt Python revolver with an 8-inch (20 cm) barrel; both of which were at the security guard's house. I did not notice any airguns in this movie. Perhaps I missed those, but I do recall seeing the farmer being armed with a traditional-looking, 12 gauge, double-barrel-side-by-side shotgun.

Legality of guns in Norway
As I was watching this movie, I could only wonder about the security guard's gun collection, particularly his submachine gun. I live in the USA, and I realize that many other nations have far greater restrictions on legal gun ownership than what the USA has. Perhaps Norway is one such nation. Although I am guessing that law-abiding citizens of Norway can legally purchase at least some types of long guns, and at least some types of handguns, can they also legally purchase automatic weapons with the right permits, or "connections," or whatever? Or, would it be more likely that the security guard either obtained his submachine gun illegally? My guess on this would be that he did, either by purchasing it outright from a "black market" gun dealer from somewhere in Norway or elsewhere, or by modifying a semi-automatic-only, long-barrel, legal version of his gun to fire full-automatic and have a short barrel. I also noticed that the antagonist in this movie was armed with just a tactical knife and something else (I will not mention what this was here to avoid the creation of too many spoilers.) at first, while the protagonist was armed at first with one of the security guard's handguns, so perhaps this was somewhat reflective of the legal realities of gun ownership in Norway. As soon as I saw the antagonist's weapon, the "never bring a knife to a gunfight" idiom came to mind, but I also realized that warriors often have to go to battle with the weapons which they have rather than lose a window of strategic opportunity.

Unknown revolver
Ove pulls out a revolver with an eight inch barrel and gold accents. It appears to have a full length underlug and a S&W-style cylinder release. Given the size, and the fact the he has a stash of .38 SPL ammo, I would guess it's a .357. --Funkychinaman (talk) 14:22, 5 April 2013 (EDT)
