Gun Identification
 

I'm posting here because I had this identified as a Winchester 1200/1300 and someone disputed it because of the forearm.
And I guess other people can post here if they can't identify something else.

I don't think it's a Mossberg because of the trigger guard.

It's not a Winchester or a Mossberg. The shotgun is a Smith & Wesson Model 916.

Smith made shotguns?

Smith & Wesson made the Model 916 here in the United States. When it became a large failure due to quality problems it was dropped in 1972. Smith & Wesson then contracted Howa Industries in Japan to make the Model 3000 pump shotgun and the Model 1000 semi-auto shotgun. Those models were built with the intention to displace Remington from the law enforcement market. The Model 3000 was a Remington 870 clone well built but 870 accessories did not interchange with the 3000. When Smith & Wesson was not able to displace Remington the project was dropped. So ended S&W move to make shotguns.

Well now I know what shotgun was used in 1968 Tunnel Rats. Thanks!

And whoever debunked it based on its pump forend needs a better version of differentiation, since shotgun pumps can be switched out. You can base it on the safety location, trigger guard, magazine tube cap, and far better methods.

If that's the only differentiating factor, then it can be. :) There are some forearms which are very distinctive and as far as I know, never used on another manufacturer's shotgun. I would probably never see a mossberg style forearm on a Remington because they don't fit (I know, I've tried) You can try to custom fit a forearm, but it's a pain because you need to alter the contours on the inside of the piece. :D

Well while we're at it I got two more from the same page.

And the snubnose in the middle.

Looks like a Mauser of some sort. I initially thought K98, but the fore stock looks too short.

The revolver is a H&R Model 632 Revolver in .32 caliber.

It could be a K98k with a sporting stock. Not every gun is fit for only one type of stock.

Im wondering, is there a way to telling the difference between a m48 and k98 without looking for stamps on the reciever or what not? m48s are way more common around here and im betting a few have made there way into movies. Fired one today and can say if i wasn't reading the big "m48" and seeing star stamped in i wouldnt be able to tell.

Anyone know what kind of gun this is.
Someone suggested a S&W bodyguard but the shallow where the hammer normally is located is still there.

I know hoe to tell the difference if i actually get to pick it up, not from looking at it on a screen though. Mitchells has a bad rep though...

Anyone know what this is.
Flying Dane had it as a Remington 870 but after looking at it I don't think it is.

That's definately a pistol gripped Mossberg 500.

Some of the sweepers in the movie use pistol-grip 870s, but yeah, John's right, the one used by Dominic Purcell's character is most definitely a 'berg 500.

I just did a massive overhaul of that page (if your wondering why it's one of my favorite movies of all time)
http://www.imfdb.org/images/thumb/c/...ellisearch.jpg
Turns out that most of the shotguns are actually Benelli M3's. (aside from Dominic's and one of the sweepers)

I need to watch this movie some time. I watched most of Ultraviolet on sci-fi, while it wasn't oscar worthy, it was kind of cool. I've heard good things about this movie though, so I might rent it sometime to watch.

Yeah definitely watch it.
It's like A brave new world, 1984, and the matrix thrown together.
Also has an awesome soundtrack.

Anyone know what kind of rifle that is?

First one on here

-edit nevermind Gunmaster45 told me

How bout this?
http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Image:Grsc1.jpg

:D No problem. If I had to guess on that gun, I'd say it is a Mauser 1934 Humpback pistol, but I'll see what everyone else thinks.

I agree with GM45 it is a Mauser Pocket Pistol either a 1914 or 1934. It hard to tell which model at that angle.

Almost certainly a Mauser 1934 - incidentally, quite a popular private-purchase pistol for Japanese officers.

I got a couple from the 1978 dawn of the dead.

& take a guess at this one, someone said a S&W model 10 but I doubt that is correct.

The shotgun in the first pic is a Mossberg 500 - you can tell by the lifter. The rifle is a Marlin 336 by the receiver. The revolver could be a Model 10, can't tell by those pictures.

Hmm I didn't suspect the Mossberg at first because the trigger guard had sort of a sharp trapezoid shape to it.
Maybe it was a trick of the light.

Okay guys, here's one for you. I'm screencapping Face/Off, so I'm wondering what the sniper rifle is Castor Troy (Nicolas Cage) uses during the opening scene.

Here's two of the three shots:

http://i31.tinypic.com/2vkzwxj.jpg
^ This shot shows the safety switch located inside the trigger guard. This scratched the Remington 700/M40 rifles, since the have a flick safety to the left of the reciever tang.

http://i28.tinypic.com/23uen3n.jpg
^ This is the best shot we see of it, so it's all I can give you.


So, any ideas?

I'm seeing a lot of examples of the Remington 700 that do not have this safety, and a similar trigger guard/ overall build. I wouldn't rule it out just yet.

That's not the safety, that's the release for the floorplate. It's a Remington 700 alright, all the non-detachable mag models have it.

Yeah I figured it had something to do with the mag release/floorplate too, when I say "do not have this safety" I was referring to the flick safety GM mentioned. Anyhow, like I said, 700.

Ah, I see. I'm glad I posed this on here, now I know. Now I can start making Face/Off sooner. Another iffie:

Some type of side-folding AKMS, but the stock style doesn't look like an MPi-KMS. Any of the AK pros know?

There's a gun just like that one in "Executive Decision", which I documented on the page for that film. I think it may be an AKM fitted with a Vz. 58 side-folder stock, which is not a simple fit, but one that at least a few people I've seen on the AK Forum managed to accomplish.

That's the page I saw the same gun on before! I knew there was another movie with this AKMS in it, but I couldn't remember. Thanks for the help.

Here's one:

http://i29.tinypic.com/30hq05t.jpg

The Smith & Wesson Auto 9mm used by Sasha Hassler ([[Gina Gershon]]), I have no idea what it is. It is compact (so this rules out the full sized 5906 and the subcompact 6906), and has a bobbed hammer (but is compact and not subcompact which ruled out the 669). I'm not sure what type of S&W it is, I figured you guys could help.

One last thing. The Colt Commandos used by the police on the river. While I'm sure they are civilian Colt Sporter 1s or 2s converted, the selector switch is clearly on full auto. This would imply the lower is not a civilian version, since civie ARs don't even have a full-auto selection. Does this mean they have GAU/5 lowers?

Here's a shot:
http://i27.tinypic.com/11hs9rd.jpg

The 69 series are compact guns, not subcompact. There is no size in between the 59 and 69 series guns. However it still isn't a 6906 because it appears to have a single stack frame. If this is so, it's a 3913.

It's too big to be a 3913 and the front of the frame isn't shaped right. And I know they isn't a specific size order, but it is easier for me to refer to the smallest as sub-compact, and go up from there.

The 3913's barrel is smaller and much more triangular-shaped than that. I'll take a look at my 1993 Smith & Wesson catalog tomorrow.

I think that you think that the modern model is the only one, but it's not. The new ones have polygonal frames, but older, more realistic 3913s look like this:

Add in the fact that Gina Gershon is a woman, and therefore more than likely has smaller hands, and the gun is the perfect size for a 3913.

Here's more shots to help you narrow it down:
