We will be in touch
I’ve got a funny relationship with Guns, I find the engineering clever and like the history of them, but there’s no way people should be allowed to have them just to have a play.
I have the same with nuclear bombs. The engineering and physics behind them is fascinating but any thought of application is horrifying and the perfect example just cause you can doesn't mean you should.
Watching the Terminator clip I just discovered Ms Connor was a Donny lass.
Oh and yes the "Jackal" gun was interesting but a bugger to reload.
What the f*** is that Mickey?
It’s me Bren gun!
"The fact that you've got "Replica" written down the side of your guns,
and the fact that I've got "Desert Eagle point five O"written on the side of mine...
Should precipitate your balls into shrinking, along with your presence.
Now... **** off."
Terry Crews and his automatic shotgun definitely worth a mention... Not going to call the Expendables a great movie but it does some things brilliantly, and the scenes where it gets lets loose and it cuts to the other characters' reactions are just perfect. Statham's face, like "Frankly this movie is ridiculous and hyperviolent and I am comfortable with my place in that but that is excessive"
Maybe not a favourite gun as such but one of the most devastating clips of what a bloody big gun will do is the boat rescue scene from act of valour where the 50 cal machine gun opens up and pretty much tears the jungle apart.
Similar scene with the machine gun in the latest dredd
My godfather helped make the leg holster in Robocop so that's pretty special, however, Aliens has the 3 best firearms in my book.

A correct answer, but just from the wrong film...
But yeah, Aliens and/or Blade Runner probably win this.
Also worthy of a mention:
Callahan Fullbore Autolock
It is my very favourite gun. This is the best gun made by man. It has sentimental value - I call her Vera.
Other alternative
Colt or Springfield 1911. Any singlestack frame.
@db- strange fact, the Vera prop was originally made for an Eddie Murphy film in the early '00s. Wonder where it'd been since.
Have to admit I also like it when all the guns are blatantly just nerf guns spraypainted black or green.
Yeah, Vera is brilliant in Firefly!
Always liked the sentry guns in Aliens as mentioned earlier.
The 'Ruger' in Rollerball was impressive...

I’d like to add the Smith & Wesson Model 500 .50-Cal. Magnum (Dirty Harry). Took care of the perps.
That's one crazy gun! The roller ball one.
Predators had some cool hardware, Adrien Brody/Royce’s AA12 auto-shotgun with drum mag, and Alice Braga/Isabella’s Blaser R93 Sniper Rifle fitted with an Elcan DigitalHunter scope are pretty nifty...
Although the custom Beretta 92FS Inox carried by Hanzo (Louis Ozawa Changchien) has the coolest-looking muzzle flash caused by the custom compensator built by armorer Steve Karnes (AKA Phoenixent)
That; and the ‘sick stick’.
Not sure if strictly a firearm, but utterly terrifying all the same
Are bullwhips ‘legal carry’?
Martini Henry’s at the ready chaps!

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to you His Most Holy Majesty's bolter
For you absolutely need to explode every Xenos / Heretic in the room.
Also comes in squad automatic weapon version...
tuco at the gun shop
Mainly because John Malkovic is ace in this film 🙂
I'd probably go with the smart gun from Aliens, posted on the previous page. I think it was made from an MG42 light machine gun attached to a steadycam rig. The pulse rifle was made from a Thompson SMG, with I think a SPAS-12 donating the parts for the underbarrel grenade launcher.

Please, no. It was a Smith & Wesson model 29 in .44 Magnum, with a long barrel and was the most powerful handgun in the world. Would likely take your head clean off.
Also, Donk, the .50BMG is a fricking terrifying round, but the sheer awesome firepower on those SWCC boats in Act of Valour came from the 7.62x51 fed GAU-17 miniguns. The noise and the sheer volume of lead they put out is just overwhelming.
