Revision as of 01:40, 1 December 2021 by PyramidHead(talk | contribs)(I can't find any evidence for the existence of an "M2A1" flamethrower, let alone one that is a variant of the M1A1 Flamethrower. Changing this ID to the M2 Flamethrower, which is more closely resembles.)
Deal of the Century is a 1983 satire starring Chevy Chase as an arms dealer who finds himself employed by an American defense contractor to convince a South American dictator to purchase an unmanned flying arms platform with questionable reliability. The film was directed by William Friedkin (The French Connection) and the cast includes Sigourney Weaver and Gregory Hines.
The following weapons were used in the film Deal of the Century:
The Heckler & Koch HK91 is a rifle that arms dealer Eddie Muntz (Chevy Chase) tries to sell to some South American rebels. The particular rifle he tries to sell has an attached scope and even a bottle opener!
Colt M16A1
The rebels that come to deal with Eddie at the lake bed are armed with M16A1 rifles. Soldiers on the government helicopters that engage the rebels also use the M16A1.
Submachine Guns
IMI Uzi
One of the rebels supplied by Eddie is armed with a full-size Uzi.
Handguns
Colt M1911A1
A military officer pulls an M1911A1 when Muntz appears to threaten Gen. Cordosa (William Marquez). It's also carried by a rebel driver.
