Desert Heat
Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
The following weapons were used in the film Desert Heat aka Inferno:
Handguns
Springfield Armory Loaded
Eddie Lomax (Jean-Claude Van Damme) carries a customized Springfield Armory Loaded pistol with pearl grips as his sidearm, although the weapon is repeatedly described by other characters in the film (not entirely inaccurately) as a “Colt .45”. After a confrontation in the desert, the pistol ends up on display in Eli's Emporium, a small town's general store.
Springfield Armory Champion
During a confrontation in the desert, Jesse Hogan (Silas Weir Mitchell) pulls a two-tone Springfield Armory Champion.
Glock 17
A Glock 17 is seen in the hands of a drunken biker. It is also used by both Petey Hogan (Jonathan Avildsen, the son of director John G. Avildsen) and various other bikers throughout the film.
Browning Hi-Power Mk. III
Browning Hi-Power Mk. IIIs are used by many of the bikers and gang members in the film. Most likely, some of these are the same guns bought and converted for The Usual Suspects, since Ellis Props & Graphics provided the weapons for that film, as well as this movie.
SIG-Sauer P228 (Modified)
The two-tone SIG-Sauer P228 fitted with a Wilcox Industries UITC "Nightstalker" IR/laser sight from Virtuosity (and also seen in Ghosts of Mars, Money Talks, and Barb Wire) makes a brief appearance in the film, when Jubal Early (Pat Morita) is seen loading up firearms near the end of the film. Its cameo appearance is due to the fact that Ellis Props & Graphics, which provided the guns for Virtuosity, also provided the guns for this film.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 Mariner (Pistol Grip)
Jesse Hogan (Silas Weir Mitchell) uses a Mossberg 500 Mariner shotgun in the film. The weapon features a pistol grip and a shortened barrel. It is the same Mossberg seen in Speed and Virtuosity, due to the fact that Ellis Props & Graphics provided the weapons for those films, as well as this one.
Sawed-Off Side-by-Side Shotgun
Johnny Six Toes (Danny Trejo) is seen with a Sawed-Off 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun.
Rifles & Carbines
Colt Model 723
A Colt Model 723 is one of the weapons inspected by Eddie (Jean-Claude Van Damme). The weapon actually appears to be a Colt 723 upper on a full-auto converted AR-15 SP1 lower.
Ruger AC556
A Ruger AC556 is carried by Ramsey Hogan (Larry Drake).
Norinco Type 56-1
Matt Hogan carries a Chinese Norinco Type 56-1, as do other bikers in the film.
Steyr SSG 69
A Steyr SSG 69 appears to be the sniper rifle used by Eddie.
Submachine Guns
Uzi
The full size Uzi submachine gun is seen in the hands of several characters including Eddie, Matt Hogan (David 'Shark' Fralick) and a gang member.
Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (converted to resemble the MP5A3)
The MP5s that appear in this movie are the elusive "chopped-'n-converted" Heckler & Koch HK94s that frequently appear in films made in the 1980's and 1990's. The weapon is seen in the hands of gang members.
