The Exterminator is a 1980 action film directed by James Glickenhaus. The story tells about John Eastland (Robert Ginty), a Vietnam veteran turned vigilante.
The following weapons are seen in the movie The Exterminator:
The main weapon used by John Eastland (Robert Ginty) in his vigilante business is a Smith & Wesson Model 29 revolver. This revolver is correctly identified as ".44 Magnum" in the movie.
A revolver is seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box (except the forementioned Smith & Wesson Model 29). It is supposed to be a Smith & Wesson Model 10HB with 3" barrel but this is only a guess based on the shape and lenght of the ejector rod. This revolver was not used in action.
Det. James Dalton (Christopher George) carries a service revolver that is never seen clear enough to be identified. Various detectives and police officers also carry holstered revolvers.
The food warehouse owner (this character is supposedly credited as Mr. Hoffman (John L. Fitzgerald)) is seen with a Colt Python (supposedly 3" barrel) revolver in one scene.
In the opening scene one of Vietcong fighters carries a pistol that resembles M1911A1 (its slide seems to be longer than typical M1911). John Eastland (Robert Ginty) captures this pistol and uses it himself. An M1911-style pistol is also seen in Eastland's weapon box (it can be the same Colt MK IV Series 70 that appeares later in James Dalton's weapon box). This pistol was not used in action.
A Luger P08 is seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box. Due to the lenght of the barrel, it is a Marine version of the pistol with a 150 mm barrel (shorter than Artillery model with a 200 mm barrel). It was not used in action.
A Colt MK IV Series 70 pistol is one of Det. James Dalton's (Christopher George) weapons. Dalton carries it in the final scene (then this pistol switches to a revolver).
An original M16 is used by John Eastland (Robert Ginty) during the attack on Ghetto Ghouls clubhouse. It can be identified due to the 3-prong flash hider.
In the opening scene Michael Jefferson (Steve James) carries an M60 machine gun. M60s are also seen in hands of other US Army soldiers and Vietcong fighters.
Two unidentified items (red number 6) are seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box. They resemble rifle grenade launchers, like German Schiessbecher or Russian Dyakonov rifle mortar.
Three unidentified items (red number 7) are seen in John Eastland's (Robert Ginty) weapon box. They resemble small anti-personnel mines, like Russian POMZ-2.
