Revision as of 18:31, 9 October 2013
Octopussy is the 13th entry in the official James Bond film series. The 1983 installment follows James Bond (Roger Moore) as he travels to India and West Germany while investigating the death of a "00" agent who was in possession of a rare Fabergé egg. Of note is the switch from Bond's traditional Walther PPK to the then-new Walther P5 and for one of the earliest appearances of the Steyr AUG. Octopussy was also released the same year Sean Connery returned to the role of Bond in the rival film Never Say Never Again.
The following weapons were used in the film Octopussy:
Handguns
Colt Government Model
During the opening sequence, a bearded, hefty, lascivious cigar-smoking South American V.I.P. (Brian Coburn) (suspiciously a Fidel Castro look-alike), and Bond (Roger Moore) is seen with holstered Colt Covernment Model pistols. After getting caught trying to plant a bomb inside the hangar, Bond's gun is taken by the South American Officer (Michael Halphie) who holds it to his back and takes him into custody.
Astra Cub
Prominently featured in opening credits is an Astra Cub pocket pistol with pearl grips. It is also the sidearm of Octopussy (Maud Adams) during the attack on Kamal Khan's palace.
Makarov (PM)
Opening credits features the Makarov pistol appearing to fire laser light.
Walther P5
The Walther P5 is the sidearm of James Bond (Roger Moore) in this film, despite having told Q that he "mislaid my PPK". The P5's use was to appease Walther, who wanted to promote the new pistol. Interesting to note is that the P5 was the same pistol used by Sean Connery in Never Say Never Again, the rival film version of Bond released the same year as Octopussy.
Walther Model PPK
Bond's trusted Walther Model PPK is briefly seen in the opening credits.
Tula Tokarev (TT)
General Orlov (Steven Berkoff) draws his holstered Tokarev pistol and uses it to smash the Fabergé egg Bond brought with him to India.
Smith & Wesson Model 39-2
