Close-up of the scope manufacturer logo, which is an upside-down "NE".The scope seems to be a Norconia 6x42, which can be found for ~$80 on Ebay. Kudos to the shooter.

Closer look of the inscription on the scope and the NORCONIA Germany inscription.

Beretta?

The Beretta's grip appears to be too big? Is it a replica? --Ben41 (talk) 20:52, 30 January 2015 (EST)

Could be a Beretta 96. Hi, My Name Is GameZone (talk) 23:48, 30 January 2015 (EST)

Beretta 92FS Brigadier - 9x19mm

This Beretta's pistol is Beretta 92FS Brigadier? --KINKI'boy (talk) 15:47, 31 January 2015 (JST)

The official handguns for the Guardia Civil were Astra until the late 70s when they switched to Llama (mostly M-82s) and foreign manufacturers like Beretta and HK (P7 & P8). I do not know the exact gun they used at that time (2007), but for an ordinary patrol guard (distinguishable by his uniform) I think a standard Beretta - even if a little outdated - is realistic. Could be a Brigadier though, but the slides do not seem large enough. As for the Beretta 96, I highly doubt it, since the .40 S&W is still considered an exotic caliber here in Europe. Only a few special units within the police and the military use it. The staffing caliber is the 9mm. Given the budget of the movie, and the kind of scope mounted, it is also possible that the gun is a prop. -- Sebastian2A (talk) 08:42, 31 January 2015 (EST)(talk)
