WZ.83 Pallad D

Glock 17

"Grumpy", one of The Joker's henchman in the bank heist, uses a Glock 17 to kill "Dopey" in the vaults. He also uses it to hold up The Joker, suspecting he will kill him as well, only for Joker to tell him he is going to kill the bus driver. This confuses Grumpy until he is hit by a bus that smashes into the building. Several other Glocks are seen in the hands of henchmen and police throughout the film.

Glock 17 (modified)

The Joker (Heath Ledger) uses a Glock 17 modified to fire full-auto like a Glock 18, although it clearly lacks the firing selector switch on the side of the slide. This makes sense because converting a Glock 17 to full-auto is far cheaper than buying a genuine Glock 18, the only downfall being the lack of a semi-automatic mode. His is a tutone Glock with a chrome slide and is fitted with a 33 round magazine. He is seen using it as his main weapon several times in the film. A fun fact, to make the gun sound more impressive, the report of a GE M134 Minigun is used to dub the gunfire of his Glock. Despite the extreme cyclic rate difference (roughly 1300rpm to 4000rpm), this sound fits quite nicely. For someone as bizarre as The Joker, the gun fits him well. The extremly high cyclic rate makes it impractical but deadly, just like him.

Joker (crudely disguised as a nurse) shoots an officer checking the hospital with his Glock, now fitted with a suppressor. Due to such close proximity, a flashpaper gun is used. Note how the gun doesn't cycle. Not to mention that since the converted Glock doesn't have a selector, firing a single shot with the Glock would be difficult to accomplish.

Walther P99

Lau (Chin Han) is seen pulling a Walther P99 from his desk when Batman (Christian Bale) cuts the power in his building and fires several shots at him before all of his men are dispatched and he is captured.

Glock 26 (fictional mock up)

During Harvey Dent's (Aaron Eckhart) introduction in a trial of Sal Maroni (Eric Roberts), the crime family leader, a witness in Maroni's payroll draws a Glock 26 cosmetically changed to look like a different gun and tries to kill Dent with it, only to discover the gun is out of working order. After dissarming the would-be shooter, Dent identifies the gun as a "Carbon fiber... 28 Caliber, made in China." Though, admittedly, this is just movie-talk, and therefore not actually pertaining to the gun.

Blaser 93

These unknown sniper rifles are used by two police snipers as they prepare to engage the hostage takers from a roof top.

Can't say for sure, but they could be HK MSG-90's. Of course, the only limiting factor in those pictures is the muzzle.

When the snipers are shooting at the "clowns", a better shot is shown and it is definately a Blaser 93.

Chinese Type 69 RPG

A Chinese Type 69 copy of the RPG-7 is used by the Joker during the armored car chase scene. He uses it to destroy a police cruiser, but fails to hit the armored car protecting Harvey Dent. When Batman joins the chase, The Joker fires on the armored car again, only to hit the Tumbler inadvertently (he jumped over a civilian car to try to put himself between Dent and the Joker). The Tumbler damaged beyond viability, Batman is forced to switch to his secondary vehicle hidden within the Tumbler, the Batpod.

Remington 870 Short barrel Shotgun

This gun is the Bank Manager's (William Fichtner). During the prologue, he uses it to kill one of the Joker's henchmen when they storm Gotham National Bank. He fires it several more times, at The Joker and his main henchmen, but hits neither. After the Bank Manager is shot, The Joker takes this shotgun, and uses it a few more times later in the film. When he crashes a party held by Bruce Wayne, he fires it into the air to gain the partygoer's attention, and proceeds to aim it at several people before Rachel Dawes is able to distract him. Before the armored car chase, he quickly uses it to kill a traffic cop that stops his semi trailer. During the chase, he fires it several times at Harvey Dent's armored car before switching to his Type 69 RPG.

This weapon is used by The Joker, during his faceoff against Batman in the streets of Gotham. He uses it to fire on several civilian cars while trying to provoke Batman. It is also noted that he nearly shoots himself in the foot with it while stumbling out of the overturned semi. He is also seen firing it in the trailer, and holding it menacingly.

MAC-11

This weapon is used by one of The Joker's henchmen. He fires it upon their break into Gotham National Bank to frighten people. He also hits a security guard in the head with it. He is killed by the Bank Manager, shortly after. In the Prewitt Building scene, other Mac 11's are seen taped to the hands of hostages that are "disguised" as clowns.

  • Are you sure the Clown Hostages were equipped with real guns (that is, in the universe of the movie)? I'm fairly sure at least some of them were equipped with non-guns (that are supposed to be non-guns in the movie), though whether that was for budget or safety reasons, I don't know. It would seem strange to give hostages real guns, though I could see the reason as being to fool the cops.
  • In the universe of the movie, the hostages could have been given empty magazines.
  • That's true, but a lot of them also looked like rubber copies.

  • Looking at the Special Edition outer box, it appears Batman has 3 different guns on each side of his Batpod. He has a lower set of machine guns, which remind me of Browning M1919s, mainly due to the barrel shroud, the big autocannons in the middle, and the grappling hooks on top.
