The Woman and the Gun (Filipino title: Babae at Baril; lit. "A Girl and a Gun") is a 2019 Filipino thriller-drama film. The film stars Janine Gutierrez as Babae, a department store saleslady who faces oppression and harassment from her superiors, coworkers, customers, and living conditions. After taking a gun she finds in a garbage dump, she starts using it to exert her authority on the people pushing her around, only to discover the consequences and moral dilemmas of threatening people with a dangerous weapon.
The following weapons were used in the film The Woman and the Gun:
Pistols
Beretta 92FS
The Beretta 92FS is briefly seen throughout the movie.

The grip of a 92FS is visible in a box of pistols at the gun store.
Colt M1911A1
A two-toned Colt M1911A1 is briefly seen in a movie. What appears to be a pair of the same guns are also seen in a box of handguns at a gun store.

Revolvers
WinGun 733
The film's titular gun is a WinGun 733, in reality an airsoft gun. The revolver is likely the same prop used in Dead Kids, this connection being made more likely by the fact that both films were produced and released at around the same time and that both films' directors are related to each other and possibly share close communication between their productions (Rae Red is the cousin of Dead Kids director Mikhail Red).

In a flashback, as Miguel (JC Santos) dares Jun (Elijah Canlas) to fight him, the former gives the revolver to the latter to give him a fighting chance.
As Jun desperately tries to pull the revolver's trigger on Miguel, the cylinder opens, revealing some extremely obvious airsoft casings. In this scene, Miguel also states that the revolver's safety is on; this may have resulted from the fact that airsoft revolvers like the WinGun often have safeties as part of their cylinder releases.
Jun aims the revolver at Miguel's thugs.
Steph (Sky Teotico) inspects the revolver after Jun gives it to him. In a later scene, a member of his gang states that "the [revolver's] hammer should be lowered to [engage the] safety". This information is incorrect, though it could be be intentional to show how unknowledgeable his gang is.

Smith & Wesson Model 60
In some scenes, the WinGun changes to a real Smith & Wesson Model 60.
