Revision as of 07:11, 9 March 2010
The Armorers for the movie Dawn of the Dead (1978) was an East Coast outfit called "The Plastics Factory", however other information on them are unavailable.
The following weapons appear in the 1978 film Dawn of the Dead:
Adler-Jager AP-74
- Used by all SWAT members , in particular, the characters of Peter (Ken Foree) and Roger (Scott H. Reiniger) but eventually discarded after raiding the gun store. In one shot, when Peter is unloading his weapon after shooting the zombie kids, we can see the tiny .22lr magazine. The Adler-Jager (also marked Armi-Jager) AP-74 is an inexpensive .22 AR15 clone (that was actually pretty close to an SP1 and much better looking than the .22 M16 clone made by Armscor). The guns were pretty much 'mime' fired, with only the sound effect and blood squibs to indicate that the rifle was fired and is used in place of the M16A1.
Break Top Shotgun
Seen in the hands of Martinez's men in the beginning of the film, also seen later in the hands of "rednecks".
Smith & Wesson Model 10HB
M1911A1
The Head police officer (Fred Baker), Blades, and Peter all use the M1911A1.
FIE Titan Tiger
The FIE Titan Tiger is utilized by Philadelphia SWAT, including Peter and Roger.
While waiting for Roger (Scott H. Reiniger) to return as a zombie Peter (Ken Foree) appears to be holding a chromed FIE Titan Tiger
