Deacons for Defense (2003)

Deacons for Defense is a 2003 Showtime movie that was inspired by a true story of a group of African American citizens of Bogalusa, Louisiana, who took up arms to protect themselves from the KKK and the local law. The film stars Forest Whitaker, Jonathan Silverman and Ossie Davis and was directed by Bill Duke. Although set in the Deep South, the movie was actually shot in Ontario using many Canadian actors.


The following weapons were used in the film Deacons for Defense:


Handguns

Smith & Wesson Model 10

Bogalusa policemen carry Smith & Wesson Model 10s as their service weapons.

Chief Neely (Beau Starr) and another officer (uncredited) with their S&W 10s.

Luger P08

Marcus Clay (Forest Whitaker) is seen with a Luger P08. Since Marcus is a World War II veteran who served in the European theater, it's possible this is a war trophy he picked up.

Luger P08 - 9x19mm. This is blank adapted movie gun.
