Da 5 Bloods (2020)

Da 5 Bloods is a 2020 Netflix original film directed by Spike Lee and centers around four black Vietnam War veterans who return to the country in search of a fallen comrade and a secret cache of buried gold. Note: The screenshots seen here will be of varying sizes due to the change in aspect ratio in several sequences of the film as Spike Lee used 16mm film for the Vietnam-era flashbacks and the modern-era sequences were recorded in the digital format. In addition, the primary actors portray their younger selves in the Vietnam War flashbacks, the argument being that as we age, we see ourselves in our memories as we currently are and not as we actually looked.

The following weapons were used in the film Da 5 Bloods:

Handguns

Colt M1911A1

The Colt M1911A1 is carried by "Stormin'" Norman Earl Holloway (Chadwick Boseman). The pistol is also seen used by Paul (Delroy Lindo), Otis (Clarke Peters), and Melvin (Isiah Whitlock Jr.).
