Lock 'n Load With R. Lee Ermey
The following weapons were used in the television series Lock 'n Load With R. Lee Ermey:
Submachine Guns
M1928 Thompson
- In Episode 1: Machine Gun Educations, Gunny blasts away with an M1928 Thompson fitted with a 50-round drum, and somewhat sloppily writes a "G" in the target, for "Gunny". A person at a machine gun shoot is seen firing an M1928 Thompson, fitted with a 30-round magazine.
Walther MPK
- In Episode 1: Machine Gun Educations, a Walther MPK submachine gun is seen on a gun rack.
PPSh-41
- In Episode 1: Machine Gun Educations, a PPSh-41 submachine gun is fired by a person at a machine gun shoot.

MP40
In Episode 1: Machine Gun Educations, Gunny test fires an MP40 submachine gun, and finds it even harder to write a "G" with than the Thompson.
IMI Mini Uzi

IMI Micro Uzi
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny closes the episode with an Uzi pistol in one hand, which on IMFDb we refer also as the Micro Uzi.
Pistols
Glock 18C
- In Episode 4: Pistols, professional pistol competition shooter Jessie Abbate lets Gunny shoot her Glock 18C full auto machine pistol. In most of her competitions Abbate uses a Glock 34 (sometimes kitted out depending on the competition), but since she's sponsored by Glock, it makes sense for her to own more than one model.
Beretta M9
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Marines are seen training with Beretta M9 pistols. Gunny shoots one himself, but as a good old Marine, finds it inferior to the 1911, and denounces it as nothing more than a good target pistol. In the episode, Gunny incorrectly stated that the standard magazine capacity of the M9 is 20 rounds when it should be 15. 20 rounders were designed for the Beretta M93R
Flintlock Pistol
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny test fires a Flintlock Pistol.
Duck Foot Pistol
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny tests a "Duck Foot Pistol", a three barreled percussion cap pistol making an early attempt at a volley gun.
Matchlock Pistol
- In Episode 4: Pistols, the Matchlock Pistol is shown briefly as an animation only. Strangely the chain of pistols doesn't start with this gun, despite this being the first gun on the list.
Wheel-Lock Pistol
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny begins on the history of pistols first with the Wheel-Lock Pistol. The weapon has a noticeable delay time on firing, but despite being historically notorious for being unreliable, the weapon actually proved to perform far better than expected.
Percussion Cap Pistol
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny test fires the Percussion Cap Pistol, which defeats the problem of not firing when the ignition system is wet.
Colt M1911
- In Episode 4: Pistols, the Colt M1911 is introduced as the first truly successful semi-automatic self-loading pistol. Gunny calls it his favorite weapon, as it should be.
Springfield Armory Custom 1911
- In Episode 4: Pistols, we see a Springfield Armory Custom 1911 (Although a box that says Colt Gold Cup National Match is visible in the background) along with a Beretta M9 pistol.
Handgunn
- In Episode 4: Pistols, we briefly see a re-enactor firing a portable cannon known as a "Handgunn" on a firing range.
Revolvers
- In Episode 4: Pistols, the Colt New Army & Navy .38 Colt revolver is introduced as the first successful double/single revolver used by the US military. Gunny shoots a ballistics gel block and the round performs admirably, if not somewhat unimpressive.
Single Action Army
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Single Action Army revolvers (both 5 1/2" Artillery and 4 3/4" Quickdraw models) are test fired by Gunny. The biggest challenge of the episode was when Gunny was asked to shoot on horseback. He ultimately opted to shoot from his motorcycle instead, as it has suspension.
Colt Patterson 1836
- In Episode 4: Pistols, a Colt Patterson 1836 is seen briefly when the Colt 1860 Army is introduced.

You can also see the yellow cylinder block installed behind the cylinder, which is how the Blackhawk is sold. He addresses to his viewers about his use of the Ruger Blackhawk as opposed to the more conventional Smith & Wesson Model 29, using his favorite excuse.
Smith & Wesson Model 500
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny tries out the formidable Smith & Wesson Model 500 revolver, the most powerful production revolver available. After using it to destroy several targets, he decides he needs to own one.
Smith & Wesson Model 629 Classic
- In Episode 4: Pistols, Gunny test fires a Smith & Wesson Model 629 Classic revolver and fires it on a ballistics gel block. The block is thrown off the table by the hard hitting .44 Magnum hollow point, and Gunny is nearly thrown off his chair when the recoil knocks him off balance. Gunny's introduction for this pistol is "Do you feel lucky?" although Dirty Harry's pistol is a standard Smith & Wesson Model 29.
