Tavo (Tito Larriva ) fires a Ruger P90 at El Mariachi (Antonio Banderas ) as he flees the shootout at the Tarasco bar.

The Ruger P90 is also the pistol Tavo (Tito Larriva ) uses to put a bullet through The Pick Up Guy's (Quentin Tarantino ) head.

Beretta M93R Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida ) seems to have a taste for exotic pistols, the Beretta M93R he carries is a very rare version of Beretta's popular 92FS model capable of 3-round burst fire. Bucho (Joaquim de Almeida ) Beretta M93R is taken by Zamira (Angel Aviles ) who makes use of its burst fire capability in the attack on Navajas (Danny Trejo ).

Error creating thumbnail: File missing Rodriguez's infamous Codpiece Revolver. Unknown Revolver The Tarasco bartender (Cheech Marin ) uses a suppressed revolver which looks like a Smith & Wesson, possibly a Model 15. In reality, very few revolvers can be sound suppressed because of the gap between the cylinder and barrel. The 1895 Russian Nagant revolver is one of the rare revolvers that can be sound suppressed. Upon firing, the cylinder moves forward and seal with the barrel, leaving no gap. You can see it here .
