Broken Arrow is a 1996 action/thriller directed by John Woo and starring John Travolta as USAF stealth bomber pilot Vic Deakins who, with the help of a group of well-financed mercenaries, steals the two hydrogen bombs he is flying. Christian Slater plays Riley Hale, his co-pilot, who survives the hijacking and teams up with a lone park ranger Terry Carmichael (Samantha Mathis) to chase after Deakins and recover the bombs before they are used against a major city.

The following weapons appear in the movie:

Supressed pistol

One of Deakins' mercs uses an unidentified pistol fitted with suppressor to murder a man and a woman who are camping out. "Area secure." he deadpans into his radio.

Beretta Inox

Deakins uses a Beretta Inox to try to kill Hale before he hijacks the stealth bomber. Hale sees Deakins in the reflection of the window drawing the gun and is able to grab the gun, but after a short struggle Deakins ejects Hale, drops the two bombs so they can be recovered by his team and then ejects himself as the plane crashes into a mountain.

The USAF Search and Recovery team that arrive at the crash site are carrying H&K MP5A3s. When they track down the missing nukes to a canyon, they are ambushed by Deakins' men, who have the higher ground and superior weaponry, and are wiped out.

Smith and Wesson model 66

When she goes to arrest Hale for the crime of landing by parachute in a national park, Carmichael uses a 4" barreled Smith and Wesson model 66 with Pachmayr grips. Hale manages to take the gun from her, but hands it back to prove he's on her side. When they are attacked by a Huey gunship, Hale asks Carmichael for her spare ammunition and uses the gun to shoot the helicopter pilot, causing the machine to crash.

Hale uses the weapon again during the Humvee chase, but Deakins windshield is buletproof. During the chase through the copper mine, Hale uses the gun
