Yup, it’s the only gun I’ve ever owned or fired that actually left a bruise on my shoulder. I still like it though, it was one of those “good” sort of pains ?
I bought the HK USP Match, before the movie came out. Never have bothered to see Tomb Raider.

Not a gun but I bought the pig of a knife from The Hunted with Benicio Del Toro and Tommy Lee Jones. The guns I bought are from being on this fuckin forum. Thanks! My wife hates this place!
Ohhh if im being honest then I always have a 50 Caliber Hawken around too because of Jeremiah Johnson And a Colt SP1 because of the Green Berets...LOL
Too many James Bomd 007 movies. I bought a Walther PPK/S. ....hated that POS too.
You break it, you buy it....don't know what else to say.
Don't even know what went wrong! I just paid her to choke me while I braided her hair! Nothing weird!!

I have to admit that I bought a P99 after Brosnan switched away from the PPK.
Guilty.
Sold it a couple decades later, got lonely , and bought an 1863 rolling block repro.
I packed an M16A1 for four years. After sixteen years, my first re-entry into the AR-15 world as a civilian was an M15-A2 because of Blackhawk Down. Had to say I wanted a couple of guns from the movies, but never got around to buying them. S&W mod. 29 in .44 Mag. The Schofields from 3:10 to Yuma.
Bond shot the .32. Much more comfortable to shoot. Cheers, Sirhr
You should try a light alloy framed Bersa 95 in .380
That thing will hurt more than shooting a .40 S&W
Yep. For whatever reason the PPK was giving me some pretty gnarly sharp pain. Totally unexpected for a steel-frame .380.
Yes, the LCP in 9mm is less worse than the Bersa 95 in .380
I think the reason is the fixed barrel to frame in both the Bersa 95 and the PPK Great for accuracy, not great for recoil.
I will admit. A nice stainless Marlin big loop Guide gun in 45-70 is a very tempting movie gun.
There's only one I'd like to have because of a movie, but couldn't afford it, and couldn't afford to feed it either.
Can't post a pic, but it's Jesse Ventura with "old painless".

I want Mark Wahlburg’s rifle in “Shooter” so I can hit a tuna can at one mile... in .308 of course??

Marlin 1895. After Unintended Consequences, I just had to a 45-70.
Damn micro-groove rifling doesn't stabilize anything. Bore is .0025 oversize.

In the TV series, Blacklist, season 2, James Spader started using a Browning Hi Power. I liked the looks of it and started researching it. I liked what I read about it and decided to find one. I called every single LGS in the Sparks/Reno area and the last one I called (naturally most expensive prices there) had one. I went down and it was a MK. III., in 9mm, manufactured in Oct. 2014. I bought it in Jan. 2016. So, while it sat on the shelf for over a year, he still charged me the MSRP. However, after trying it out, I absolutely loved it! It is my fave pistol and I bought a new CS skeletonized hammer and sear for it. It was not biting the web of my hand, but it was irritating it whenever I handled it. Now, no problem. I am one of those rare birds who likes the "mousetrap" magazines. The trigger is just fine by me.
Add white linen pants, and you've got a winner! He didn't have the Bren for all seasons though.
Hi,
Still looking for an all matching number PSG-1....

I didnt outright buy one after that movie, but I would have to say I was influenced.
I picked one of those up for 50 bucks, long before the movie came out.
Belay that last, it was a 6.5x55 Swedish Mauser.
When they were all over in every second rate hardware chain store sitting in a cardboard soap barrel for next to nothing
...
Here's one that I've always wanted that rounds out the 3 Star fandons.
Zat'nik'tel from Stargate. 1 shot stuns with great pain (while dancing the watoosie like my dad said), 2 shots kills, 3 shots target vaporizes.
I’ve wanted a top break revolver like The Schofield from unforgiven or the rhino Harley Quinn used in justice league. That could possibly be because Margot Robbie though.
The Schofield pistols are a thing of beauty
Uberti makes some excellent reproductions that are smooth, amazing shooters.
The Russian version has an extra finger stabilizing notch for shooting on the run or ride.

I got one and then next thing I knew 2 more showed up in my safe.
I've been obsessed over the .50AE Desert Eagle since seeing it in the original Resident Evil 2.
So go buy one.
Then buy the 10" barrel for it
Then buy the scope rings and the custom side cut holster
Shoot it a few times and then put it back in your safe to fondle.
It's a great gun, but a bit on the overly huge side for most things.
