Talk:Escape from L.A.
Underway
I started capping this from my DVD but the source really is utterly shit. I can't believe they get away with selling this stuff.
Going to cap from a HD source later instead, consider this a 'reservation' of sorts, I guess. --Joffeloff 15:01, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Hmm
Not sure what prompted people to assume that this was a Kongsberg but there's nothing there to say it is one as opposed to a pre-A1 1911 that I can see. --Joffeloff 00:10, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Since Ellis Mercantile supplied the weapons to Escape From LA and I was the gunsmith there at that time. The .45 Pistol was a blued US Army marked 1911 that was in the holster. - Phoenixent
- Good, so can we remove that Kongsberg m/1914 already? MoviePropMaster2008 04:39, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- I just put it here for keepings in case there was something I missed. I changed the article to say 1911 already. --Joffeloff 13:04, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Kongsberg m/1914
Seen in the pistol holster of the Surgeon-General of Beverly Hills (Bruce Campbell). Snake later takes this pistol from him after shooting him with a small blowdart.
Galil lookalike
- Would it be possible that this is an RK-62? --AdAstra2009 02:24, 2 December 2009 (UTC)
Shotgun?
Saw the movie again today and during the motorcycle scene Snake uses what appears to be an Ithaca shotgun, I noticed it isn't on the page, seems pretty hard to miss. The henchman escorting Snake to the stadium wield double barrel shotguns as well. - Diego Wolfwood
Coreburner
The Coreburner was originally made for the 1995 movie "Automatic". It was used by the Mercenaries, and didn't have the scope or shoulder-stock. In the movie, the large tube under the barrel was a grenade launcher that could fire different types of grenades. The rifle had an led camcorder monitor on top, and one of the rifles had a camera in it for a scene showing the image on the monitor as it was aimed around a corner. Krel.
- That's interesting, because IMFDB's own Steve Karnes built the Coreburner while he was the gunsmith at Ellis Mercantile, and I don't remember him saying it was made for Automatic. -MT2008 09:37, 12 March 2011 (MSK)
