Masterminds (2016)

Masterminds is a 2016 comedy starring Zach Galifianakis as David Scott Ghantt, an armored car guard who decides to pull off a heist of some bank money he is transporting. The film was based on an actual incident in 1997. The cast included Kristen Wiig, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones, SNL veterans who would also co-star in the 2016 remake of the film Ghostbusters.


The following weapons were used in the film Masterminds:


Handguns

Smith & Wesson Model 15

David Scott Ghantt (Zach Galifianakis) foolishly tries to put the revolver in the small of his back ("Mexican Carry"-style) before it goes off. (This would not be likely to happen, due to the heavy double action trigger pull)

Ruger Security Six

A Ruger Security Six revolver with wood target grips is carried by armored car guard Kelly Campbell (Kristen Wiig). It is later one of the guns seen on the weapons cache table. She is shown to be quite accurate with it.
