Superman II (1980)

Superman II is the 1980 sequel to 1978's Superman: The Movie. The sequel finds the Man of Steel having to battle three Kryptonian criminals who have escaped a space prison and are intent on conquering Earth. Both Superman: The Movie and its sequel were filmed simultaneously, but production conflicts led to director Richard Donner departing before completing the second film. Superman II was subsequently finished and released with new scenes under the direction of Richard Lester. In 2006, Richard Donner and editor Michael Thau collaborated to restore as much of Donner's original vision as possible with newly discovered footage. This version of the film was released on video under the title: "Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut". Many alternate sequences were restored (and a few excised) as well as the appearance of Superman's father Jor-El (Marlon Brando).


The following weapons were used in the film Superman II:

Shotguns

Coach Shotgun

Dwayne (Peter Whitman), the young deputy who confronts the supervillains, aims a Coach-style shotgun at General Zod (Terence Stamp). After he superheats the barrels with his heat vision, Zod takes the shotgun away and fires a blast into his chest to no ill effect. Zod then comments, "A weapon of some sort."

Zod superheats Deputy Dwayne's 12 Gauge Sawed off Double Barreled Shotgun.
Zod fires at himself several times (just once in the Richard Donner cut). Note how only smoke is seen coming out instead of a muzzle flash. (Likely this was done because even blanks are still very dangerous when fired at close range.)

12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun

In the Theatrical Cut, Joey aims his 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun at Zod and his friends until Zod moves him around.
