Licence to Kill
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Licence to Kill is the 16th entry in the official James Bond film series. The 1989 sequel (which was the first not to bear the title of an Ian Fleming novel or short story) finds Bond on a personal mission to take down the drug lord responsible for an attack on his CIA friend Felix Leiter and his wife. Licence to Kill co-stars Carey Lowell, Robert Davi, Benicio del Toro, Talisa Soto, and Wayne Newton and was the final Bond film directed by John Glen and the final film to star Timothy Dalton as Agent 007.
The following weapons were used in the film Licence to Kill:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Pistols
Walther PPK
James Bond (Timothy Dalton) carries his usual Walther PPK as his weapon of choice throughout the film. However, this particular PPK is a WWII-era German Waffenamt variant (it should be noted that the PPK used in Licence To Kill was sourced from Stembridge Gun Rentals instead of Bapty and Co. since the movie was filmed entirely in the US and Mexico). This is most likely the same PPK Dalton had carried in the previous film, The Living Daylights.
Walther P5
During the tour of Sanchez' drug lab, Dario (Benicio del Toro) pulls a Walther P5 on Bond. A P5 was used by Bond in Octopussy.
Taurus PT92
During the pre-credits sequence, Felix Leiter (David Hedison) hands James Bond (Timothy Dalton) a Taurus PT92 "just in case". Bond uses it during the shootout against the henchmen that open fire, using it moments later to shoot the Jeep's left front tire. Milton Krest (Anthony Zerbe) uses a PT92 after Bond uses a spear gun to impale a diver and jumps off. The film's armorer states clearly its a Taurus PT92 and not a Beretta 92FS.
Heckler & Koch P9S
Braun (Guy De Saint Cyr) is armed with a Heckler & Koch P9S. He is later seen carrying it on the Wave Krest.
Beretta 950 Jetfire
Pam (Carey Lowell) carries a stainless steel Beretta 950 Jetfire as her sidearm throughout the film, giving one to Bond, and grabbing a spare one out of her purse when Bond leaves to check the hotel room. She also notably uses her Jetfire when she meets Professor Joe Butcher (Wayne Newton) when she goes to "study" with him.
Browning Hi-Power
Col. Heller (Don Stroud) carries a Browning Hi-Power throughout the film. Another appears to be used by one of Sanchez's men.
Revolvers
Ruger Security Six
Ed Killifer (Everett McGill) draws a stainless steel Ruger Security Six on Bond in Krest's warehouse.
Smith & Wesson Model 19
Bill, one of the security guards at Milton Krest's warehouse, carries a Smith & Wesson Model 19 revolver.
Smith & Wesson Model 19 (Snub)
Kwang (Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa) appears to pull a Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose when Heller and the military close in. Franz Sanchez (Robert Davi) also carries a Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snubnose that he fires at Kwang. The snubnose also appears to be the revolver carried by MI6 agents at the Hemingway House when Bond escapes.
Smith & Wesson Model 15
When Bond hijacks the seaplane full of money, one of the pilots pulls a Smith & Wesson Model 15 on Bond and attempts to shoot him with it (instead shooting a package of money), but Bond knocks it out of the pilot's hand. Seen in the holsters of Florida Keys police officers.
Smith & Wesson Model 66
Dario (Benicio del Toro) grabs a Smith & Wesson Model 66 from one of his henchmen in the bar and uses it to fire at Bond and Pam as they get away on the boat. These appear to be the revolvers carried by Miami police officers as well.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch HK94A3 (Chopped and Converted)
Many of Sanchez's henchmen are armed with H&K HK94A3s chopped and converted to resemble MP5A3 submachine guns. Dario (Benicio del Toro) carries one while in the jeep in the pre-credits sequence. The guard (Carl Ciarfalio) at Milton Krest's warehouse carries one, as do several of Sanchez's men during the final car chase. The majority of the film was produced in both the US and Mexico and the production crew sourced their weapons from Stembridge Gun Rentals instead of Bapty and Co (the traditional armorers for the James Bond movies).
IMI Micro Uzi
Perez (Alejandro Bracho) and Sanchez (Robert Davi) himself use Micro Uzis. Interestingly, in the truck chase, if you listen to the bullet impacts, they plink out some phrases from the James Bond theme song. Sanchez uses his micro Uzi to "cut overhead" after Truman-Lodge (Anthony Starke) sarcastically congratulated him on an "eighty-million dollar write-off".
Assault Rifles
Colt Commando Carbine
Felix Leiter and DEA agents Hawkins (Grand L. Bush) and Mullens (Rafer Johnson) during the pre-credits sequence, are armed with Colt Commando Carbines.
Colt M16A1
M16A1 rifles are held by DEA agents and SWAT officers that escort the prison van carrying Sanchez. The soldiers in the fictional country of Isthmus also carry M16A1 rifles. These rifles are fitted with M16A2 handguards. What appears to be a scoped M16 is used by an MI6 agent when Bond escapes from custody at the Hemingway House.
IMI Galil AR
An IMI Galil is seen in the hands of an Isthmus soldier.
Shotguns
Remington 870
Ed Killifer (Everett McGill), the DEA agent that Sanchez bribed to get him out of custody, carries a Remington 870 shotgun in the prison van, using it to knock the driver out and take control of the van and run it off a bridge. They were also seen carried by Bank of Isthmus City security guards during the scene that introduces Truman Lodge.
Mossberg 500 Cruiser
CIA agent Pam Bouvier (Carey Lowell) uses a sawed-off Mossberg 500 Cruiser during the bar fight. It blows a hole in the wall somehow big enough for a human to fit through.
Machine Guns
Browning M1919A4
A Browning M1919A4 is seen mounted on an M5 Stuart tank ordered to open fire on a hideout.
Launchers
FIM-43 Redeye
What are referred to as "Stingers" in the film appear to be FIM-43 Redeye launchers in reality. During the final car chase, Perez (Alejandro Bracho), one of Sanchez's henchmen, attempts to use the FIM-43 Redeye to try and kill Bond, but Bond dodges the missile by tilting his tanker on its left side wheels. Sanchez later attempts to use one to take down Pam's plane . The "Stinger" is incorrectly portrayed as a conventional rocket launcher, with the ability to be reloaded with rockets (the actual Stinger system is a single use weapon). This launcher also is erroneously depicted as a standard hard-launch missile launcher, instead of a soft-launch (where the missile is pneumatically ejected a safe distance and then ignites its motor).
Other
Spear Gun
A spear gun is used by Bond and Krest's men during the plane chase in the Florida Keys.
"Signature Camera Gun"
Q makes Bond a customized Camera Gun to assassinate Sanchez, which can only be fired by him thanks to the fingerprint recognition mechanism built into the pistol grip (explaining why the Chinese Intelligence agents cannot get it to work). Q identified the gun's "film" as .220 high-velocity. The palm print identification in the grip was also used in the Bond film Skyfall.
