Crying Freeman is the 1995 live action feature film adaptation of the Japanese anime series of the same name that stars Mark Dacascos as the titular Triad hitman who falls in love with an artist who witnesses one of his hits. The film was French produced and filmed in British Columbia.
The following weapons were used in the film Crying Freeman:
During the final confrontation with the Yakuza, Koh (Byron Mann) conceals a COP 357 Derringer up his sleeve. Although this pistol holds only four rounds, he fires at least eight times without reloading.
Walther PPK
The Freeman's first victim tries to pull a concealed Walther PPK (with a stainless finish) from an ankle holster before he is killed.
AMG AutoMag
During the final confrontation with the Yakuza, Ryuji Hanada (Masaya Katô) pulls a blued AMC .44 AutoMag on the Freeman and Koh, but never uses it.
Smith & Wesson 5904
During the final shootout one of the Yakuza can be seen with the Smith & Wesson 5904
Shotguns
Remington 870
During the confrontation with the Yakuza at the boss' house, Koh (Byron Mann) kills one mobster with his COP 357 Derringer and takes his Remington 870. The 870 used is fitted with a Butler Creek tactical forend, heat shield, door breacher, and pistol grip stock. This exact same shotgun was previously used in Timecop and later seen briefly in Reindeer Games (which had the same armorers).
Throughout the movie, Yakuza and Triad gangsters are seen using both long- and short-barreled versions of the M91S machine pistol. These custom-built weapons have been featured in several films and TV shows produced in British Columbia.
(Mock-up) Heckler & Koch MP5K
Several gangsters also use mock-ups of the Heckler & Koch MP5K built on what appear to be Kimel AP-9 assault pistols; these guns also appeared in other movies and TV shows filmed in British Columbia during the 1990s, such as M.A.N.T.I.S. and The X-Files.
UZI
Some Yakuza gangsters use UZIs during the final shootout. UZI also can be seen in Freeman's armory
During the final major shootout, the Freeman (Mark Dacascos) arms himself with an M16 (SP1) fitted with a Cobray CM203 37mm Launcher (which is used as an M203 stand-in, its usual role). He fires multiple grenades from the launcher without reloading.
