In keeping with the recent movie themed threads in the clubhouse....What are you favorite movie guns or guns in movies that are really cool looking? I don't recall this being discussed before and a search didn't turn up anything but if I'm wrong and missed it, my bad feel free to delete. I know I'll make JD happy with my choice. Ever seen Faceoff? Airport scene near the beginning of the movie where they captured Caster Troy. He changes his jacket and you see two Gold Plated, compensated 1911s with six inch slides. OHHH YEAH!!!
1. AMT Longslide from Terminator 1 2. The twin Berettas from Equilibrium 3. Lara Croft's gun from Tomb Raider (HK Match .45 - I've shot it, and it's a very good gun) 4. M-41 Pulse Rifle from the movie Aliens (they sell the kits to make one - all you need is a Thompson carbine and a Remington M870 shotgun that is cut down)
Seen this firearm in lots of flicks I want one of the 100+ shot snubnose revolvers that is deadly accurate at 1000 yrs. We've all seen them.
I'm gonna have to go ahead and put my name on the Sharps 1874 Long Range Rifle from Quigley Down Under. The Sharps 1874 used in the movie has a 34" barrel (4"s longer than a standard 30" barrel) converted to fire a .45-110 mettalic cartridge with a 540 grain paper-patch bullet. It is uses double set triggers, the back trigger making the front lighter, and is fitted with a ladder-elavated Vernier peep sight and a Lyman Beach front sight.
All excellent choices. In the interests of keeping the choice kinda unique, how about the Detonics service pistols from Runaway, with Tom Selleck.
Bolt Action pistol from Blade Runner with two barrels...one firing the bolt action bullet and the other some form of other rifled round...possibly .223 from the clip it uses.
Yeah...that one really cannot be beat. The sniper rife in Shooter (Chey Tac?) is prolly second for me.
I have most of the weapons I have seen on screen that I might like to have in my collection ( in one form or another ) but one that I really think is going to be added in the near future is this one: The Hand of God Pistol from the Remake of 3:10 to Yuma
+100... on the Troy's 24K Goldplated Springfield Armory Custom Distinguished Limited (PC9404) Hands down... Terminator 2 was a great showcase for the minigun too...
