Hard Hunted is a 1992 action movie, the story revolving around a stolen nuclear detonator hidden inside a jade statue. In order to prevent this device from falling into the hands of crime lord Kane, the US government sends a team of beautiful but lethal female agents to retrieve the device.
Interesting trivia is that the leading female actors are ex-Playmates and that two male actors are sons of well-known actors. Dona Speir (Donna) was Playmate in March 1984 and Roberta Vasquez (Nicole) in November 1984. Tony Peck (Lucas) is the son of Gregory Peck and Geoffrey Moore (Kane) is the son of Roger Moore.
The following weapons can be seen in the movie Hard Hunted:
Nicole (Roberta Vasquez) uses a Davis P-32 during the gyrocopter attack in Arizona. It might also be the (identical looking) P-380 version but for the sake of identification a P-32 is assumed.
The Beretta 92FS is used by one of Kane’s thugs plus by Donna and Cole (Buzzy Kerbox) at the remote Pacific island where both are being kept in captivity.
Shane (Michael J. Shane) carries a chrome Dan Wesson Model 15-VH and uses it during the gunfight at the Molokai airport plus at the beach club to impress Becky.
A crew member of Kane’s yacht (uncredited actor) carries an unidentified pistol when he’s shot after discovering a thief stealing valuables from the yacht’s vault.
Radio host Ava (Ava Cadell) removes an unidentified pocket pistol from her lingerie before she begins her show. The grooves on the slide and rear sight can be clues.
A Heckler & Koch SP89, converted to automatic, is used by a thug at the Molokai airport (uncredited actor), assassins Coyote (Richard Cansino) and Wiley (Chu Chu Malave) plus by Nicole at the remote island.
An unidentified submachine gun, visually resembling the Sa. Vz.61 Skorpion, is used by Bruce (Bruce Penhall) during the shootout at the Molokai airport.
The pilot of the plane taking Donna to a secret location (uncredited actor) carries both an M33 as well as a M26 hand grenade. She takes the M33 off him and threatens to destroy the plane with it.
When Edy and Lucas are being attacked at the marina, Edy unscrews one of her high heels and Lucas throws it at attackers. It turns out to be some sort of grenade, inclusive an old-style red warning light…
The gyrocopter that Raven flies around in is equipped with several fake weapons. Next to the obvious fake missiles (seen moving along a string when launched!), there’s a machine gun in the front. At first sight it looks like a Browning AN/M2 but because of the limited space, it’s probably some metal tube with holes in it.
Several alternative covers for this movie circulate on the internet, most prominently (variations on) below two versions. The cover on the left seems most accurate, with Nicole (left) carrying the above mentioned unidentified submachine gun and Donna (right) carrying a Smith & Wesson 3913 “Ladysmith”.
The cover on the right, however, seems to bear no relation to this movie at all. Donna (left) is for some reason is carrying a Steyr AUG A1 (does not appear in the movie) but the lady on the right (with crossbow and unidentified pocket pistol) seems to be a character from another Andy Sidaris movie.
