Based off the infamous criminal couple of the 1930s, Bonnie and Clyde follows the life of Bonnie Parker (Holliday Grainger) and Clyde Barrow (Emile Hirsch) and their rampage thoughout the states. The TV miniseries aired in December 2013 on A&E, the History Channel, and Lifetime.
The following firearms were seen in the television miniseries Bonnie and Clyde :
Pistols
Colt Mk IV Series 70
Clyde Barrow's preferred weapon, the M1911A1, is represented in the series by the anachronistic Colt Mk IV Series 70, carried by Clyde (Emile Hirsch) during the gang's robberies and murders. Texas Ranger Frank Hamer (William Hurt) and Dallas County Deputy Ted Hinton (Austin Hébert) also carry holstered Colt Mk IV Series 70 pistols. Hinton dual-wields his during the final ambush in Louisiana.
Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket
In her garter belt, Bonnie Parker (Holliday Grainger) smuggles a nickel Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket with pearl grips to Clyde (Emile Hirsch) while he is imprisoned in Waco. In real life, the weapon was a .32-caliber revolver.
Revolvers
Colt Detective Special
Bonnie Parker (Holliday Grainger) carries an anachronistic post-war Colt Detective Special as her primary weapon in the film. The anachronism is evident since her Detective Special has a smooth cylinder latch and longer ejector rod. An early 1930s-era Detective Special should have a checked cylinder latch and a short ejector rod.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
The Smith & Wesson Model 10, at this time known as a "Military & Police," is carried by Ponder, Texas police officers and Dallas County Deputy Ted Hinton (Austin Hébert) before Hinton begins carrying the Colt Mk IV Series 70. This also appears to be the revolver that John Bucher (Doc Whitney) has in his safe while he is being robbed.
Colt Official Police HB
A heavy-barreled Colt Official Police (previously identified as a Colt New Service) is part of the gang's collection. Clyde (Emile Hirsch) hands one to Bonnie (Holliday Grainger) during their first photo session, and Marvin "Buck" Barrow (Lane Garrison) pulls one out of his nightstand when he goes to join his brother. Buck's wife Blanche (Sarah Hyland) also carries Buck's Official Police. The revolver is an anachronistic post-war Heavy Barrel model, evident by the ramped front sight and single screw on the side of the frame.
Submachine Guns
Thompson M1928
The M1928 Thompson submachine gun is seen in the hands of both criminals and police. Clyde (Emile Hirsch), Bonnie (Holliday Grainger), Buck (Lane Garrison), and Raymond Hamilton (Desmond Phillips) all use the Thompson during robberies and gunfights with police. Platte City police officers and one of the Dallas County deputies, likely meant to be Bob Alcorn, fire Thompsons back at the Barrow Gang.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1906
Before becoming outlaws, both Clyde (Emile Hirsch) and Buck (Lane Garrison) plink with .22-caliber Winchester Model 1906 pump-action rifles.
Winchester Model 1892
An Eastham prison farm guard carries a Winchester Model 1892 rifle.
Browning Automatic Rifle
The Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR), Clyde Barrow's preferred weapon in real life, makes a number of appearances in the series, carried by Clyde (Emile Hirsch) and Bonnie (Holliday Grainger). Dallas County Deputy Ted Hinton (Austin Hébert) also uses a BAR while tracking the gang. The series depicts the gang's frequent robbery of military armories for their high-powered weapons. (The real-life Clyde had actually cut-down the barrel of a BAR and welded together three magazines for his custom "scattergun" to fire sixty .30-06 rounds without reloading.)
Colt Monitor
Frank Hamer (William Hurt), the ex-Texas Ranger tracking the Barrow Gang, carries the Colt R80 Monitor, a Colt-manufactured variant of the BAR with a Cutts compensator.
Remington Model 8
Frank Hamer (William Hurt) carries the Remington Model 8 while engaging the Barrow Gang outside of Dexter, Iowa. The real life Hamer did use a Remington Model 8 in his pursuit of the gang, but he wasn't at Dexfield Park during the ambush nor was he even chasing the gang yet at this time.
Unknown Rifle
During the Dexfield Park gunfight, Hinton (Austin Hébert) fires at the escaping Barrow Gang with an unidentified rifle.
Shotguns
Winchester Model 1912 Riot
Many lawmen, including Frank Hamer (William Hurt), carry Winchester Model 1912 Riot shotguns.
Unknown Double Barreled Hammerless Shotgun
Many officers of the Texas prison system carry hammerless double-barreled shotguns, including prison transporter Bud Russell (Jason Kirkpatrick) and Eastham prison guard Herman the "high rider"(Michael Ortiz). Raymond Hamilton (Desmond Phillips) eventually takes the shotgun from Herman.
Colt Model 1878 Double-Barreled Shotgun
During the Grand Prairie, Texas bank robbery, Bonnie (Holliday Grainger) takes a sawed-off Colt Model 1878 double-barreled shotgun from the bank president and uses it during the robbery.
Remington Model 10
Barrow Gang members Ralph Fults (Aaron Jay Rome), Bonnie Parker (Holliday Grainger), and Clyde Barrow (Emile Hirsch) are all seen using a sawed-off Remington Model 10 shotgun. In real life, Clyde's preferred shotgun was a sawed-off 16-gauge Remington Model 11 semi-automatic shotgun.
Winchester Model 1897 Riot
During the Dexfield Park ambush, Clyde (Emile Hirsch) and Bonnie (Holliday Grainger) arm themselves with Winchester Model 1897 Riot shotguns when fighting back against the police.
