Crying Freeman
Crying Freeman is the 1995 live film version of the Japanese anime series of the same name. It stars Mark Dacascos as the titular Triad hitman who falls in love with an artist who witnesses one of his hits. The film was French produced and filmed in British Columbia.
The following weapons were used in the film Crying Freeman:
Handguns
Taurus PT92CS (modified)
The Freeman Yo Hinomura's (Mark Dacascos') sidearm throughout the movie is a Taurus PT92CS fitted with a custom-built compensator.
Beretta 92F
Beretta 92F pistols are used throughout the movie by Triad and Yakuza henchmen, and also by Koh (Byron Mann) near the end of the film.
Glock 19
Detectives Forge (Rae Dawn Chong) and Netah (Tchéky Karyo) carry Glock 19s as sidearms, as do many of the gangsters throughout the movie.
Smith & Wesson 3913 "Ladysmith"
Lady Hanada (Yôko Shimada) carries a Smith & Wesson 3913 "Ladysmith" as her main sidearm.
COP 357 Derringer
During the final confrontation with the Yakuza, Koh (Byron Mann) conceals a COP 357 Derringer up his sleeve. Although this pistol holds only four rounds, he fires at least eight times without reloading.
Walther PPK
The Freeman's first victim tries to pull a concealed Walther PPK (with a stainless finish) from an ankle holster before he is killed.
AMG AutoMag
During the final confrontation with the Yakuza, Ryuji Hanada (Masaya Katô) pulls a blued AMC .44 AutoMag on the Freeman and Koh, but never uses it.
Shotguns
Remington 870
During the confrontation with the Yakuza at the boss' house, Koh (Byron Mann) kills one mobster with his COP 357 Derringer and takes his Remington 870. The 870 used is fitted with a Butler Creek tactical forend, heat shield, door breacher, and pistol grip stock. This exact same shotgun was later seen briefly in Remington 870 (which had the same armorers).
Mossberg 500
During the final shootout, Yo Hinomura (Mark Dacascos) wields a custom short-barreled Mossberg 500 shotgun fitted with a forward pistol grip, rear pistol grip, heat shield, door breacher, and a shell holder. This exact same shotgun also appeared in Reindeer Games, 3000 Miles to Graceland, Smokin' Aces 2: Assassins' Ball, Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever, etc. (all of which had the same armorers as this movie).
Submachine Guns
Unknown SMG
Throughout the movie, Yakuza and Triad gangsters are seen using two different versions of an unusual and crude-looking machine pistol (versions with both long and short barrels appear in the movie). This SMG has appeared in many movies and TV shows filmed in British Columbia, including The X-Files, M.A.N.T.I.S., Timecop, Viper, and Smallville (among others), but IMFDB has yet to identify these weapons.
(Mock-up) Heckler & Koch MP5K
Several gangsters also use mock-ups of the Heckler & Koch MP5K built on what appear to be Kimel AP-9 assault pistols; these guns also appeared in other movies and TV shows filmed in British Columbia during the 1990s, such as The X-Files and M.A.N.T.I.S..
Rifles
Norinco NDM-86
During the hit on Mako (Shido Shimazaki), Koh (Byron Mann) uses a Norinco NDM-86.
M16 (SP1) w/ Cobray CM203
During the final major shootout, the Freeman (Mark Dacascos) arms himself with an M16 (SP1) fitted with a Cobray CM203 37mm Launcher (which is used as an M203 stand-in, its usual role). He fires multiple grenades from the launcher without reloading.
