I would also like to add that you can't go wrong with a classic....Buffalo Bill's Desert Eagle in Silence of the Lambs....you can't go wrong with a big giant pistol.

Okay, it may have been a crap movie, but God's (Bill Paxton) sniper rifle from Navy Seals.

     I like the Big F***ing swiss army THING from "The Fifth Element".  Machine gun, smart bullets, darts, net launcher, flame thrower, ice blaster, missile launcher...  and the little red button.  (or is all that over the top?) Boom.

Oh yeah, whatever guns they used in Enemy At the Gates, the Nazi and Soviet sniper rifles, were really cool.

Not really a movie, but I always liked the Tachyon Wave Motion Gun from Star Blazers.  And I like the laser gun / missile launcher Peter Strauss used in Spacehunter: Adventures in the Forbidden Zone (I still think that title sounds like something you'd see on Skinamax).  I'm partial to a good ol' fashion laser gun myself.  I want one.  I want one real bad.

I haven't seen the movie, but offhand I'd bet the German rifle was a Mauser, probably 9 mm.   I've shot an 8 mm mauser, and it'll go through a 4 foot diameter (dried out) log at 25 feet.  Damned nasty & fun.

German Gun: Mauser 98K with  6x or 4x scope. Russian Maisan-Nagant 7.62mm with 6x scope.
....Desert Eagle.Hit with the first shot, cause the follow ups take time , due to recoil recovery(Even with a gas operated system).
.... Hand of god's gun? Barrett .50 cal. Major boom Tube! Same as used in "Robocop".
....Quiggly's 45-110 Sharps. You can get a remake from Navy Arms. Sweet!

Guess I came in late on this thread. Every single one I could think of has been mentioned - the pulse rifle, Savini's crotch revolver, the Runaway gun, even the Wave Motion Gun.

Oh wait a minute, there is the Death Star's planet-destroying primary weapon. That, and the guitar-case bazooka from Desperado.

I have to admit, while there are some really cool pistols, rifles and other small weapons, the weapons of mass destruction have always appealed to me - the super lasers, the nukes, the N2 mines, etc.

The Wave Motion Gun has been a favourite of mine since I was a kid. I think the big production involved in firing it is part of its appeal.

I've always been real fond of the Starburst gun from the Logan's Run movie.  took me a few years, but i was able to track down a kit of the gun and rigged it to make that cool flame starburst.

Damn, I forgot about Desperado.  Kampa and Quino have the coolest guns ("bring your guitars").  My favorite place to keep a gun would have to be a guitar case.

Hey, look, a guy with a guitar.  I wonder if he'll play for... oh s**t!

Forgot about Arnold too:

Plasma Rifle with 40 watt range
Uzi 9 mm
.45 Long slide with Laser sighting.

Nothing stopping you from grabbing a copy now...

>I would also like to add that you can't go wrong with a classic....Buffalo Bill's

My father owns two of them, .50 caliber magnums. He bought a black one when he heard they weren't going to be available anymore, then when he had the chance, he bought a satin finish one, which is the version he really wanted in the first place. He has a permit and carries it with him.

>Also, anything with a silencer because of the cool noise.......

I've been told that silencers don't actually sound like that. Someone told me that they'll muffle the noise enough that people out on the street aren't going to notice it, but not so much that you could shoot someone in one room without the people in the next room hearing it.

My favorite gun would have to be the .44 magnum Automag from Sudden Impact. That version was made special for the movie because the 8" barrel normally didn't have the (I'm not sure this is the proper term for it) 'fluting' on it. That only came on the 6" models. I think I read that Clint got to keep it too.

Next would have to be the portable railguns from Eraser, followed by the Cobra Assault Cannon.

Just found my old DOOM II cd a few weeks back and played it through.  That was a lot of fun,,

I've been told that silencers don't actually sound like that. Someone told me that they'll muffle the noise enough that people out on the street aren't going to notice it, but not so much that you could shoot someone in one room without the people in the next room hearing it.

It'd be cool to have a movie that someone relied on a silencer working how they'd seen in a movie, only to have it work 'right' and totally surprise them.

I'm often curious about how much we 'know' outside of our direct experience is really based on T.V and movies and it's *wrong*.  I think a movie where characters try to do something based on 'common knowledge' cultivated from movies and it turns out reality doesn't work like that would be pretty funny.

Does anyone who's never exploded a hand-grenade or shot a shotgun *really* know what would happen?  I know from movies, but that means I probably don't and  were I to really try the pull the pin on a grenade and throw it based on that, I would probably be very surprised.

Reminds me of the scene in From Dusk 'Til Dawn, when the characters are formulating their plan and offering what confused semi-facts about vampires they know.

Harvey Keitel: "Has anyone here read a real book on vampires, or are we just remembering what we saw in some movie?"

Tom Savini: "Does a Time Life book count?"

That always makes me laugh.
