Unlike the original ''[[Lethal Weapon]]'' (where a [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92F/FS|Beretta 92F]] was carried), Detective Martin Riggs ([[Mel Gibson]]) carries a [[Beretta 92 pistol series#Beretta 92F/FS|Beretta 92FS]] as his primary sidearm in this film, and as such, uses it frequently throughout the film. In a memorable scene, Riggs empties the magazine of his Beretta into one of the main villain's henchmen while remembering the names of his friends and loved ones. Other LAPD detectives are also seen with Berettas.

Revision as of 03:02, 17 August 2011

The following weapons were used in the film Lethal Weapon 2:

Lethal Weapon 2 (1989) The poster image is obviously reversed as the slide release and take down lever are on the wrong side in the photo. The flip was most likely done for aesthetics (although it led to gun confusion). Note the tipped up slide release lever, meaning that the magazine is empty.



WARNING! POSSIBLE SPOILERS!

Beretta 92FS

Unlike the original Lethal Weapon (where a Beretta 92F was carried), Detective Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) carries a Beretta 92FS as his primary sidearm in this film, and as such, uses it frequently throughout the film. In a memorable scene, Riggs empties the magazine of his Beretta into one of the main villain's henchmen while remembering the names of his friends and loved ones. Other LAPD detectives are also seen with Berettas.

Riggs fires his Beretta at an attacking helicopter.

Smith & Wesson Model 19

The Smith & Wesson Model 19 appears as the primary weapon of Detective Roger Murtaugh (Danny Glover). In his signature Lethal Weapon move, Murtaugh can be seen rolling his neck before taking a shot.

Smith & Wesson 5906

In addition to his Smith & Wesson Model 19, Murtaugh also carries a Smith & Wesson 5906 in a shoulder holster.

As Capt. Murphy (Steve Kahan) talks to him, Murtaugh can be seen carrying his Smith & Wesson Model 19 in a crossdraw holster, and a Smith & Wesson in a shoulder holster.

Murtaugh fires the Smith & Wesson at the South African henchmen during his rescue of Leo at the stilt house.

Beretta 92SB-C

During the raid of the South African residence, Detective Collins (Grand L. Bush) can be seen wielding a Beretta 92SB-C. Not a 92FS Centurion or a 92FS Compact, as they weren't released until 1992, and since this film was released in 1989, it would have to be a 92SB Compact Version. It is also noted as a 92SB-C by its rounded trigger guard.

Heckler & Koch MP5K

The Heckler & Koch MP5K appears in the film as one of the weapons used by the main villain's henchmen, first seen in the South African embassy being carried under a coat via a shoulder sling, then again aboard the cargo vessel Alba Varden during the final battle.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3

The Heckler & Koch MP5A3 appears in the film as another weapon used by the main villain's henchmen, first during the raid on Riggs' beachfront mobile home (seen with and without brass catchers), then again during the final battle aboard the Alba Varden. Two MP5A3s are commandeered and used by Riggs and Murtaugh.
