Anyone ever bought a gun after seeing it in a movie?

Guilty.................

In fairness, I am a Deadpool super fan boy.

I thought the movie was great, but it kept nagging at me, how do two 50ae Desert Eagles add up to 12 rounds?

If a guy repeatedly forgets his spare guns and ammo when going into battle, it's a fair assumption that he might forget to top his mags off

FN-FNC from Heat.



Only problem was, I couldn't find the folding stock version. So, I settled for the full stock version. I later found out that, less of them were imported vs the folding stock version.

Aloha, Mark

Good point, 50ae ammo is spendy, he might have been too low on funds for more than 12.

Dirty Harry did more for the model 29 Smith and Wesson sales than any other single movie has done for a firearm. "Did I fore five shots or six?". Love it!

Just in case you missed watching the movie.

It may sound corny but after seeing Quigley down under, I had to have a Sharps in 45-70. Just so you know the accuracy and long range was not there like in the movie. Saved my money and was able to get one. Over the next year I shot it 8-10 times. Got married and started having kids. Gun got moved further to the back of the safe as I aquired more practical guns. About 2 months ago I sold it due to it being a safe queen and not using it in over 10 years. Dont regret buying it at all it was a fun gun to shoot. Just not very practical.

For me 80s action movies started my love affair with UZI's I have yet to own one but some day I will.

I'm guilty of seeing and wanting (but could never afford):

Desert Eagle with conversions for all 3 calibers.

An Uzi.

Beretta 92fs/M1.

.50 BMG everything

Lots of revolvers and old lever guns n shotguns.

The Professional..
I had to have an SGS compensated 92. And the titanium .50. Well, bullet tooth Tony may have had influence.

Sweet! Now add to that the Desert Eagle that is capable of firing "titanium slugs" from La Femme Nikita, and you've got a collection!

Video game instead of a movie. I've wanted a Steyr AUG since about 1999 from playing counterstrike. Last year i bought one. Zero regrets!

Oh and two baby eagles for the sole reason that they say "made in Isreal" on the side.
