Alien: Resurrection

Alien Resurrection (1997)

Alien Resurrection is the fourth installment in the Alien film franchise. In this 1997 sequel, a clone of Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) joins forces with a mercenary transport crew to fight off Aliens who have infested a military space facility.

The following weapons were used in the movie Alien Resurrection:

Pistols

United Systems Military Sidearm

The standard United Systems Military Sidearm is famously used by Johner (Ron Perlman) in both hands, to dispatch the Alien hanging on the leg of Christie (Gary Dourdan).

Johner (Ron Perlman) dual-wields the handguns to dispatch the Alien hanging on the leg of Christie (Gary Dourdan). When hanging from the ladder with the two handguns mentioned, Pearlman later found out that he had severely cut up the backs of his legs during the filming of the scene.

Zipgun

Call (Winona Ryder) is seen carrying a Zipgun, which she gives to Dr. Wren (J.E. Freeman) at one point.

Arm-Anchored Pistols

For his sidearms, Christie (Gary Dourdan) keeps two on arm-anchors (much like Antonio Banderas in Desperado). After the gym scene, he is only seen with one, with which he threatens Wren with, and tries to kill the Alien hanging on his leg, in his final moments.

"Corral Cowboy Pistol" (M1911A1)

When Johner (Ron Perlman), Christie (Gary Dourdan), and Call (Winona Ryder) are watching a Space Shopping program, one of the objects up for sale is a M1911 clone. It resembles the Colt/Detonics 1911 Hybrid seen in Terminator 2.

Shotguns

Concealed Carry Double-Barreled Pump Action weapon

Vreiss (Dominique Pinon) keeps a double barreled pump action weapon in his wheelchair. The parts of the weapon are concealed within the wheelchair and he is seen assembling it when he sees an Alien in the Ceiling. It later jams after going through the flooded kitchen. It leaves Christie to fend for himself against the Alien hanging on his leg.

Rifles

Shockrifle 'Burner'

The Standard Assault Rifle weapon used by United Systems Military. Its main setting is a Shock setting similar to that of a taser, but without causing physical harm. That setting is used on Ripley 8 (Sigourney Weaver) when she is strangling Wren. Its backup setting allows it to fire solid slugs. This is the setting seen carried by DiStephano right up until the end . The weapon is also very notably dual-wielded by Elgyn (Michael Wincott), but he never gets to use it.

Incinerator 'Flamer' (Assault Rifle Mode)

This is one of the most versatile weapons available to the United Systems Military. It is primarily a Flame thrower unit, but can be used as an Assault Rifle and a Grenade Launcher. The Assault Rifle mode is seen used by Johner (Ron Perlman) at the end of the film when killing the Alien that had birthed from Purvis through Wren's forehead.

Grenade Launchers

Incinerator 'Flamer' (Grenade Launcher Mode)

This is one of the most versatile weapons available to the United Systems Military. It is primarily a Flamethrower unit, but can be used as an Assault Rifle and a Grenade Launcher. The Grenade launcher mode is seen used by Johner in the Flooded Kitchen, it is fired at one Alien, but it dodges it, only for it to destroy the other one.

Concealed Carry Grenade Launcher

Another of Vriess' concealed disassembled weapons (though it is unknown where he stores it) is a pump action grenade launcher. Vriess is seen assembling it after the 'What were you expecting, Santa Claus?' line. It is later used by Christie to destroy the egg trap set by the Aliens, right after escaping the flooded kitchen.

Other

Incinerator 'Flamer' (Flamethrower Mode)

This is one of the most versatile weapons available to the United Systems Military. It is primarily a Flame thrower unit, but can be used as an Assault Rifle and a Grenade Launcher. The Flamethrower mode is seen used by Ripley 8 (Sigourney Weaver) to destroy the previous seven attempts at recreating the Queen.

'Thermos' Gun

The 'Thermos Gun' is snuck through security by Johner (Ron Perlman) with the crass quip 'My own Recipe, way more dangerous'.
