Righteous Kill (2008)

Righteous Kill is a 2008 crime thriller that reunited actors Robert De Niro and Al Pacino onscreen for the first time since 1995's Heat. In the film, De Niro and Pacino star as NYPD detectives who investigate a series of murders whose victims turn out to be notorious criminals. In the course of their investigation, the detectives come to the realization that the prime suspect may be one of their own.

The following weapons were used in the film Righteous Kill:


WARNING! SPOILERS AHEAD!


Glock 19

One of the standard issue firearms for the NYPD in real life, "Turk" (Robert De Niro) and "Rooster" (Al Pacino) carry the 2nd generation Glock 19 as their standard sidearms. Detectives Perez (John Leguizamo) and Riley (Donnie Wahlberg) also carry the Glock.

Glock 26

One of the weapons approved for off-duty carry by the NYPD in real life, Detective Karen Corelli (Carla Gugino) can be seen carrying a subcompact Glock 26 near the end of the film, which she gives to Turk. Turk is seen using it in the ending scene at Spider's (50 Cent) club, when he holds it on before the other detectives run in.

A 9mm Smith & Wesson 5906 pistol is among the guns fired on the firing range. This is one of the early third generations with a hooked trigger guard and a regular (non-Novak LoMount) rear sight.

Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW

Olympic Arms K23B

Similar to the weapon used in The Departed, Turk and Rooster use Olympic Arms K23B machine guns while practicing their marksmanship at the range. One of them has an A2 receiver like it should, the other has an A1 receiver. You can tell it is a K23B because its Handguard is far too short, and too smooth to be a Colt.

Colt M1911A1

A stainless Colt M1911A1 is used to shoot the skateboarding drug dealer Rambo at the film's beginning. He also uses a stainless steel one to kill a rapist who was acquitted on a technicality. Both of the M1911A1s used had suppressors attached to the guns to silence them. Charles Randall also uses this weapon.
