Don't Be a Menace to South Central While Drinking Your Juice in the Hood is a 1996 comedy which lampoons the "growing up in the ghetto" sub-genre of African-American cinema. The films mocked by this movie include (most notably) Boyz N The Hood, Menace II Society, Juice, and Higher Learning. The film was written by its two stars, brothers Shawn Wayans and Marlon Wayans, and their older brother Keenen Ivory Wayans also makes several appearances.
The following weapons were used in this movie:
Handguns
Desert Eagle Mark VII
Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) carries an IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII as his main weapon throughout the movie. His Desert Eagle is fitted with a scope and a BA-2 laser pointer under the barrel. Frequently, Loc Dog fires the Desert Eagle with the sideways "gangsta grip" that is stereotypically associated with gangbangers in cinema.
Glock 17
The Glock 17 is by far the most common pistol in the movie, used by gangbangers, police officers, and many other characters. Both Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) and Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) handle Glock 17s in several scenes.
Beretta 92F
When "The Man" (Benjamin N. Everitt) kills the Korean couple that manages the convenience store (in a scene spoofing the opening of Menace II Society), he uses a Beretta 92F. Due to a continuity error, the Beretta becomes a Glock 17 when he tosses his weapon to Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) in order to frame him for the murder. The Beretta 92F is also used by a thief who is seen pulling a "jack move" on an ice cream truck and later an old lady's walker.
Sphinx AT 2000
In a deleted scene (which appears only in certain versions of the movie), a girl at the party draws a Sphinx AT 2000 on Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) after he tries to get her phone number by threatening her with his Desert Eagle.
SIG "Non Gun"
At the end of the movie, Grandma (Helen Martin) pops out of a garbage dumpster wearing face paint and firing two flashpaper SIG-Sauer "Non Guns" (spoofing Dead Presidents).
Mauser C96
A Mauser C96 is seen in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') closet arsenal.
Submachine Guns/Semi-Auto Assault Pistols
Intratec TEC-9
Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) keeps two Intratec TEC-9s in his closet arsenal. He takes one of the TEC-9s off the door and asks Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) whether he should wear it with his high tops, or a Micro Uzi with his low tops. Later in the movie, another TEC-9 is seen being loaded by one of Toothpick's (Darrel Heath's) gangbangers (though the TEC-9 used in this scene appears to be a rubber prop, not a blank-adapted firearm). A TEC-9 is also held by Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) on the poster, though he never handles the TEC-9 in the movie itself.
IMI Micro Uzi
Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) has a Micro Uzi in his closet arsenal. He takes it off the door and asks Ashtray (Shawn Wayans) whether he should wear a TEC-9 with his high tops, or the Micro Uzi (which he refers to simply as an "Uzi") with his low tops.
IMI Uzi
An IMI Uzi is seen in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') closet arsenal.
Heckler & Koch MP5SD3
A Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 is seen in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') closet arsenal.
Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW
Toothpick (Darrel Heath) can be seen loading a Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW with the folding stock removed prior to the drive-by at the end of the movie, which is also seen in the hands of one of his thugs. The MP5K-PDW used in this scene is a Tokyo Marui airsoft gun - when Toothpick cocks the weapon, the ejection port does not move (as it would on a real MP5 variant). Also, when the shooting starts, Toothpick has changed over to a real Heckler & Koch SP89 (firing blanks).
Heckler & Koch SP89
Toothpick (Darrel Heath) uses a Heckler & Koch SP89 as his primary weapon during both drive-by scenes. It replaces an airsoft MP5K-PDW that he is seen loading prior to the shooting.
RPB M11
An RPB M11, a semi-automatic MAC-11 clone, is used by one of Toothpick's (Darrel Heath's) gangbangers during the drive-by shooting at the end of the movie.
Steyr SPP
A Steyr SPP is used by one of Toothpick's (Darrel Heath's) gangbangers during the drive-by shooting at the end of the movie.
Rifles
Colt AR-15 A2
A Colt AR-15 A2 semi-automatic rifle is seen hanging from the wall in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') bedroom, amongst the many firearms in his sizable arsenal. It is possible that this might be an M16A2, but there do not appear to be any real NFA weapons in this movie (only semi-automatic assault weapon clones).
Norinco MAK-90
One of the weapons seen hanging from the wall in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') bedroom is a Norinco MAK-90 semi-automatic rifle, the "post-ban" civilian version of the Chinese Norinco Type 56 (AK-47).
Norinco Type 84S
Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') bedroom also contains a Norinco Type 84 assault rifle.
Heckler & Koch HK91A3
A Heckler & Koch HK91A3 is seen in Loc Dog's (Marlon Wayans') closet arsenal.
Remington Model 700
The white supremacist who kills Malik (Omar Epps) (in a scene spoofing Higher Learning) uses a Remington Model 700 with a scope and synthetic stock.
Shotguns
Unknown Double-Barrel Shotgun
Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) keeps an unknown model sawed-off double-barrel shotgun in his room, hanging from his wall along with other firearms.
Mossberg 590
Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) has a Mossberg 590 with a heat shield and a pistol grip (from a Remington 870) in his room.
Heavy Weapons
RPG-7
During one scene (mocking Boyz N The Hood), Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) and Toothpick (Darrel Heath) square off against each other by pulling out larger and larger weapons. When Toothpick points a Glock 17 at Loc Dog and Ashtray, Loc Dog flashes his Desert Eagle at Toothpick, and then Toothpick points an RPG-7 at Loc Dog. Besides the fact that the RPG-7 seems to be a replica (similar to those used in Red Dawn), what is notable is that the fake rocket-propelled grenade has been inserted into the wrong end of the launcher tube!
Comedy Weapons
Because Don't Be a Menace is a slapstick comedy, there are several scenes in the movie in which characters are seen using comedic weapons other than firearms. These weapons are included here solely for completion's sake (and laughs).
Loc Dog's Nuclear Bomb
During one scene (mocking Boyz N The Hood), Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) and Toothpick (Darrel Heath) square off against each other by pulling out larger and larger weapons. When Toothpick points a Glock 17 at Loc Dog and Ashtray, Loc Dog flashes his Desert Eagle at Toothpick, and then Toothpick points an RPG-7 at Loc Dog. In response, Loc Dog opens the back of his mail truck and reveals that he has a nuclear bomb, along with the detonator for the bomb.
Slingshot
When Toothpick (Darrel Heath) and his gangbangers are loading weapons prior to the drive-by scene, Toothpick is seen preparing a slingshot.
Super Soaker
When Toothpick (Darrel Heath) and his gangbangers are loading weapons prior to the drive-by scene, one of the gangbangers pumps up a Super Soaker. The Super Soaker is also held by Loc Dog (Marlon Wayans) on the poster, though he never uses it in the movie itself.
