Black Widow is a 2021 American spy film directed by Cate Shortland and written by Eric Pearson, Jac Schaeffer (WandaVision), and Ned Benson. The film marks the first solo feature starring Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff, the former S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and Avenger who was part of the Russian "Black Widow" female assassin program. After the events of Captain America: Civil War, while on the run from the US government, Natasha is forced to contact her long-forgotten family. Together, they decide to end their dark past and destroy the Red Room once and for all. Black Widow also is the first feature film of Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and was originally scheduled for release in 2020, but after several delays, was released in July of 2021 in both theaters and on the premium tier of the streaming service Disney+.
The following weapons were used in the film Black Widow:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
Beretta 92FS
During the opening scene set in 1995, S.H.I.E.L.D. agents fire what appear to be Beretta 92FS pistols at Natasha's family's plane as they attempt to escape from the USA. Two Berettas with wooden grips with the Black Widow logo and three pistols with regular black plastic grips are seen on the table in the Red Room during the opening credits.
Beretta 93R
A Beretta 93R pistol with a Black Widow logo on the grip is seen on the table in the Red Room during the opening credits.
Browning Hi-Power
A Browning Hi-Power pistol is seen on the table in the Red Room during the opening credits.
Chiappa Rhino 60DS
Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) is armed with a Chiappa Rhino 60DS, but it is holstered for most of the film. In the Red Room in Dreykov's office, she pulls out a gun and points it at Natasha, but lowers it on her father's orders.
Glock 17
For some unknown reason, several SWAT officers storming the Albany Terminal where Natasha Romanoff is allegedly hiding have two pistols in different holsters. They have Glock 17s holstered on their left legs. At this moment New York sheriff's deputy also aims with a pistol while hiding behind the hood of a police car. One of the convoy's guards is armed with a Glock 17.
Glock 17 (mounted in a CAA Micro RONI)
The four Black Widows are armed with a Glock 17 with 33-round magazine mounted in a CAA Micro RONI with laser sights when they break into the former S.H.I.E.L.D. safe house, where Yelena now lives. They aim solely by the lasers due to the low light level and smoky environment. Despite good training, they never shoot Natasha and Yelena, who quickly knock down one of the Widows and run away from the apartment.
Glock 26
Twin Glock 26 pistols with extended magazines appear as the main weapons of all Black Widows. One of them puts the gun in her holster during the opening credits. Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) and another Black Widow named Ingrid (Nanna Blondell) have holstered pistols during their mission to eliminate a traitor in Tangier, Morocco. Yelena's guns are best seen when she fights Oksana, and Ingrid's when she tries to contact her runaway partner. After escaping Ross' pursuit in New York, Natasha Romanoff (Scarlett Johansson) takes her pistols (or one of them) and goes to a temporary refuge near Sæbø, Norway. Noticing that there is already someone in the RV, she pulls out the gun, but lowers it, since it turns out to be her friend Rick Mason (O-T Fagbenle). After going for gasoline for the generator, she is ambushed by Taskmaster on the bridge, where during a short battle she shoots the attacker several times. Yelena continues to use her pistol later in Budapest. At first, she points it at Natasha during their long-awaited meeting, but, during the fight, they both exchange guns. At some point, Yelena returns her gun, and during a chase through the streets of Budapest, points the gun at the BMW driver (Marcel Dorian), stealing his car. Ingrid and the other Widows continue to carry holstered pistols as they chase Natasha and Yelena. Deciding to rescue her adoptive father from prison in exchange for information about the Red Room, Natasha contacts Rick again to get equipment and transport, however, guns weren't used during the rescue operation. At the meeting place, she takes another pistol out of her bag. Yelena briefly uses the gun in Saint Petersburg homestead until Melina knocks her out. Many Black Widows practice with Glock pistols in the Red Room. Natasha, disguised as Melina, carries her pistols in holsters during her meeting with Dreykov.
FN Five-seveN
The Red Room operatives carry FN Five-seveN pistols in holsters during child kidnapping for the Black Widow program during the opening credits. Due to the opening Ohio sequence taking place in 1995, the pistol is anachronistic by 3 years.
Heckler & Koch P30
Rick Mason (O-T Fagbenle), an independent contractor and Natasha's ally, has a Heckler & Koch P30. It lies on the bedside table in front of the bed and he tries to take the gun but stops when he sees Natasha. Later he leaves the gun for Natasha next to the building's stairs in Budapest. Natasha (Scarlett Johansson) takes the gun and enters an apartment previously used by S.H.I.E.L.D. as a safe house, where Yelena now lives. During a confrontation, she briefly exchanges the pistol with her sister's pistol. During the fight between Natasha and Yelena, the gun falls to the floor and remains there.
Kimber K6s CDP
In the opening scene, Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weisz) picks up what appears to be a Kimber K6s CDP revolver from the kitchen cabinet and quickly puts it in her purse before escaping from their temporary house in Ohio in 1995. This gun is an anachronism since the Kimber K6s was introduced in 2016.
Makarov PM
In the opening scene, at least two Russian soldiers in Cuba in 1995 have holstered Makarov PM pistols. When one of them grabs Yelena (Violet McGraw) by the arm, Natasha (Ever Anderson) kicks him and pulls the pistol out of his holster. She aims at the soldiers and then at her father. At this moment, one soldier grabs a pistol from his holster and aims at her. However, Alexei (David Harbour) manages to calm down his daughter and disarm her. He unloads the gun and drops it to the ground. The pistol stays on the ground until the end of the flashback.
SIG-Sauer P226
What appears to be a suppressed SIG-Sauer P226 pistol is seen on the table in the Red Room during the opening credits.
Tokarev TT
One of the Black Widows recruits fires a Tokarev TT-33 pistol in a closed shooting range during the opening credits. Later four more pistols are seen on the table in the Red Room and two Black Widows take them. The pistol also appears as a secondary weapon for Seventh Circle Prison guards.
Unknown Pistols
In addition to the Glock 17, the SWAT officers who storm the Albany Terminal where Natasha Romanoff is believed to be hiding carry unidentified pistols in their holsters. Ross' operatives also have unidentified holstered pistols.
Submachine Guns
CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1
Almost all Red Room operatives are armed with CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1 with sights. It is first seen during the ambush at Melina's homestead. Many operatives are also armed with machine guns in the Red Room.
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
Several SWAT officers who storm the Albany Terminal together with other officers are armed with a Heckler & Koch MP5A2.
KRISS Vector
Two of Ross' operatives (Jose Miguel Vasquez and Geoffrey D. Williams) are armed with KRISS Vectors with EOTech sights when they storm the Albany Terminal.
SIG-Sauer MPX Air Rifle
Two of Ross' operatives (Robert Pralgo and Josh Henry) armed with SIG-Sauer MPX Air Rifles with EOTech sights and flashlights when they storm the Albany Terminal.
Steyr TMP
Two Steyr TMPs are first seen on the table in the Red Room during the opening credits. Several Steyr TMPs are seen in Yelena Belova's (Florence Pugh) armory in Budapest apartment. After escaping from the Widows, one of them (Simona Zivkovska) continues the pursuit on a motorcycle. In this scene, she switches from the AW-F rifle to a Steyr TMP and shoots at the car that Natasha and Yelena stole from a civilian (Marcel Dorian) until Yelena knocks her off the motorcycle with the torn-off door.
Assault Rifles and Carbines
AK-47
In the opening scene, several Russian soldiers in Cuba in 1995 are armed with an AK-47. One of them holds the assault rifle at the ready when Natasha (Ever Anderson) grabs the pistol from another soldier, but then lowers it. Some Seventh Circle Prison guards are also armed with now obsolete AK-47 during the riot. Another Russian soldier is also armed with an AK-47 (a strange choice given that the film takes place in 2016), in contrast to the rest of the soldiers, which appropriately use AK-74Ms.

Heckler & Koch G36C
The Red Room operatives are armed with the Heckler & Koch G36C during child kidnapping for the Black Widow program during the opening credits. This is an anachronism as the opening credits take place around 1995, while the G36C wasn't produced until 2001. By 2016, operatives instead use the HS Produkt VHS-K2 and CZ Scorpion Evo 3 A1. Several SWAT officers led by U.S. Secretary of State Thaddeus Ross are also armed with Heckler & Koch G36Cs with EOTech sights when they are looking for Natasha to arrest.
HS Produkt VHS-K2
Some Red Room operatives are armed with HS Produkt VHS-K2, replacing the G36C. However, the VHS-K2s are only seen during the attack on Melina's house and in the final act, during Dreykov's evacuation from the collapsing Red Room.
M1 Garand
A certain soldier holds what appears to be a M1 Garand rifle while marching in a ceremonial parade during the opening credits.
M4A1
A US Army soldier holds what appears to be an M4A1 with an M203 grenade launcher during the opening credits. Several SWAT officers are armed with the M4A1 with EOTech sights and flashlights when approaching Albany Terminal. Two Black Widows use M4A1 carbines with ACOG scopes and SureFire M900 vertical grips during the raid on a S.H.I.E.L.D. safehouse in Budapest. Hearing shots in Yelena's apartment, they attack Natasha and her sister, and then, going up the stairs, continue to shoot them.
MGC M16
In the evening in an RV in Norway, when Natasha is watching Moonraker, the MGC M16 replicas in the hands of Drax's guards are visible on the screen of her laptop.
Mosin Nagant M1891 Dragoon
The Black Widows recruits march with Mosin Nagant M1891 Dragoon rifles during the opening credits.
Ruger Mini-14
In the opening scene, Alexei Shostakov (David Harbour) takes a newer version of Ruger Mini-14 with the optic scope and a pack of cartridges from a closet when Natasha's family escapes from their temporary house in Ohio in 1995. Inadvertently, he scatters cartridges, but little Yelena (Violet McGraw) helps him to collect them. However, in all other scenes, an older rifle is used, which can be distinguished by the slanted front sight. Alexei puts the rifle and other things in the car and the family drives to the airfield. There, he pulls the rifle from the trunk and hangs it on his back, preparing the plane for flight, and when the S.H.I.E.L.D. SUVs approach, he takes the rifle and fires several times. Alexei runs after the plane, shooting on the run, and at the last moment jumps onto the wing, from where he continues to fire from his rifle, taking several cars out of the pursuit.
Springfield M1903 "Parade"
The Black Widows recruits march with what appears to be a Springfield M1903 "Parade" rifles during the opening credits.
Shotguns
AA-12
Seventh Circle Prison guards are incorrectly armed with AA-12 shotguns with non-lethal ammo (the KS-23 would be a better choice for Russia). Many of them open fire when a riot breaks out in the prison. A production image shows Natasha (Scarlett Johansson) with an AA-12, but she does not use it in the final cut.
Benelli M3
One of the SWAT officers is armed with a Benelli M3 during the raid on the Albany Terminal.
Sniper Rifles
Accuracy International AW-F
Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) and another Black Widow named Ingrid (Nanna Blondell) track down the fugitive Black Widow Oksana (Michelle Lee) in Tangier, Morocco with suppressed Accuracy International AW-Fs. When Oksana notices the surveillance, she starts to run away and Yelena pulls out the bolt from her rifle (apparently for security reasons) and, leaving it on the roof, runs in pursuit. Ingrid also leaves her rifle on a tripod and discovers Yelena's escape. One of the Black Widows (Simona Zivkovska) spots Natasha and Yelena and starts firing a rifle (but misses) during a raid on the S.H.I.E.L.D. safehouse in Budapest. Then Ingrid goes to intercept, leaving her rifle in the sniper position.
Blaser R93
Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weisz) takes a silenced Blaser R93 sniper rifle from the barn after noticing the approaching people, but upon seeing her family, lowers the rifle and carries it into the house.
Remington 700PSS
The SWAT sniper controls the area through a scope of what appears to be a Remington 700PSS while his teammates storm the Albany Terminal.
Machine Guns
Browning M2HB
A Browning M2HB on an M3 tripod is mounted on the turret of an M1 Abrams main battle tank during the opening credits. A Browning M2HB is mounted on a Humvee seen in a convoy.
DShKM
One of the Seventh Circle Prison guards takes up a machine gun position with a DShKM and starts shooting at Solovyov Air helicopter until Yelena blows up the watchtower with a grenade launcher.
Grenades
M18 Smoke Grenade
A Venezuelan soldier has two M18 Smoke Grenades on his chest rig during the opening credits.
M84 Stun Grenade
Yelena (Florence Pugh) takes one M84 stun grenade from her arsenal and throws it onto the stairs during the Black Widow attack in Budapest. This gives them a few seconds, and she and Natasha escape through the roof.
Model 24 Stielhandgranate
One of the Seventh Circle Prison guards carries what appears to be a Model 24 Stielhandgranate grenade in his pocket.
Grenade Launchers
Defense Technologies 37mm Gas Gun
A Venezuelan soldier is armed with what appears to be a Defense Technologies 37mm Gas Gun during the opening credits.
Heckler & Koch XM25
Yelena (Florence Pugh) takes a Heckler & Koch XM25 grenade launcher from the bag and shoots at the watchtower where the machine gunner is located. It is most likely a mock-up, possibly the same one created for The Expendables 3 which was built around an L85A1.
M203 Grenade Launcher
What appears to be a M203 grenade launcher mounted on a M4A1 rifle is seen in the hands of a US Army soldier during the opening credits. A Red Room operative that Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weisz) disarms carries a CZ Scorpion EVO 3A1 with a M203 grenade launcher attached. Melina then commandeers the weapon and fires the launcher (by firing the Scorpion!).
RPG-7
A soldier shoots an RPG-7 during the opening credits.
Other
Black Widow's Bite
The Black Widow's Bite is an electroshock bracelet used by all Black Widow assassins. The bracelets are not used most of the time in the film. For the first time, Ingrid (Nanna Blondell), whose mind is controlled by Dreykov, uses the Bite to commit suicide due to her injuries. Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weisz), who has betrayed her family, fires a Bite at Yelena in her home as the Red Room operatives arrive.
Hawkeye's Collapsible Recurve Bow
After Dreykov activates the Taskmaster protocol, she examines the recording of the Avengers Civil War (see Captain America: Civil War) at the Leipzig-Halle Airport, specifically the Black Panther and Hawkeye fight, in which Clint uses his unique bow. After that, Taskmaster copies the fighting style of both and uses his own bow in Budapest.
Taskmaster's Collapsible Recurve Bow
Inspired by Hawkeye's fighting style, Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko) creates her own collapsible recurve bow with explosive arrows. She first uses a bow in Norway during an ambush on Natasha Romanoff, but it is unseen. While chasing Natasha and Yelena in Budapest, Taskmaster activates her bow and shoots an exploding arrow under the bottom of their car.
Yelena's Armory
Yelena (Florence Pugh) created her own arsenal in one of the rooms of a S.H.I.E.L.D. safehouse in Budapest. After a small fight, Yelena and Natasha go together to the armory, where Belova takes a wad of money and an M84 stun grenade while discussing the Budapest Operation with her sister.
