MacGyver (1985-1992)

MacGyver was an television adventure series that aired on ABC from 1985 to 1992 and starred Richard Dean Anderson as the title character, a government troubleshooter who uses his wits as well as everyday items to get himself out of precarious situations. The show was also notable for the main character's aversion to shooting guns (attributed to a tragic childhood incident). While the character never was operating weapons (save for the pilot episode), that didn't preclude him from using them in a non-lethal manner. The series would continue in several made for television films and was subsequently "rebooted" in 2016 with a new CBS television adaptation.

The following weapons were used in the television series MacGyver:

Pistols

M1911A1

The M1911A1 is used by several characters in the series.

M1911A1 .45 ACP

An enemy officer uses the M1911A1 in "The Gauntlet" (S1E04).

Terry Andrews (Michael McGuire) uses the M1911A1 in "Last Stand" (S1E07).

Colonel Antunnez (Gregory Sierra) uses the pistol in "Jack of Lies" (S2E06).

Custom M1911

Appears in "Strictly Business" (S6E19), it is Murdoc's (Michael Des Barres) main carry pistol through-out the episode. This M1911 is distinguishable with chrome finish, black controls (slide stop and safety), black spur hammer, brown/wood grips with emblem, slightly angular trigger guard, harsh angular slide top and slightly protruding barrel.

It first appears in the beggining sequence when Murdoc goes to a hearing with HIT top executives. Though first he is asked to remove all weapons and Murdoc lays the M1911 on the hood of his car. He uses the gun again at MacGyver's houseboat. He first keeps it in his holster and takes it out when Mac gets out of the trap. After blowing up Mac's rental car with FIM-43 Redeye, Murdoc chases Mac to the forest with the M1911 at hand. He later is seen screwing a suppressor on to it in order to shoot a lock and enter a cabin without alarming Suzanne Walker. He withdraws when he hears the little girl using a secret entrance to cabin. Once he manages to get alone with MacGyver, he has a camera setup where the pull of the M1911's trigger will activate the camera and take a photo of MacGyver's death. After foiled by distraction by Amy and chairshot from MacGyver, Murdoc fires at the two of them. He is last seen with the pistol holding Suzanne Walker hostage with it.

Taurus PT92AFS

A (sometimes suppressed) Taurus PT92AFS was used by Nicolas Von Leer (Kai Wulff) in "Eye of Osiris" (S6E14). The Taurus was a pistol more readily available to Canadian armorers, so when the production moved to Vancouver in later seasons, it became the gun of choice for most villains and their underlings during seasons 4-7, taking over H&K P9S's duty from season 1-3.

Heckler & Koch P9S

The Heckler & Koch P9S is used by several characters in the series, notably in Season 1's "Last Stand" and "To Be A Man". It frequently appears as the gun of choice of most villians and their underlings during seasons 1-3. It is substituted by the Taurus PT92 and/or Beretta 92F during seasons 4-7.

Beretta 92F

The Beretta 92F is used throughout the series

• "D.O.A.: MacGyver" (S2E21) - used by amnesiatic MacGyver. His amnesia prevents him from remembering that he detests handling guns.

• "Halloween Knights" (S5E06) - Wielded by a freelance assassin named Hank Gregg (Scott J. Ateah), who is used as a guinea pig for Nicholas Helman's "Death Row" trap gauntlet to test it's effectiveness against a skilled assassin on par with Murdoc.

• "Strictly Business" (S6E19) - When Murdoc sets off a metal detector at HIT hearing early in the episode, he told to remove the rest of his hidden weapons. One of these weapons is a Beretta 92F.

Due to weak video quality murking the details, it's kinda hard to tell it's Browning Hi-Power. The shape of the gun is easier to tell in motion that with screen captures.

Colt Detective Special has multiple appearances:

• "Pilot" (S1E01) - once MacGyver finally reaches Dr. Carl Steubens (Paul Stewart) and Dr. Sidney Marlowe (Olaf Pooley), the former reaches out to a drawer and pulls out a nickel Colt Detective Special. Rashly acting Barbara Spencer (Darlanne Fluegel) rushes at Steubens, trying to grab the gun, and gets shot. Startled Steubens drops his guard and next MacGyver rushes in and succeeds in disarming him.
• "Halloween Knights" (S5E06). Unknown assilant uses a Colt Detective Special to shoot the rear wheel of MacGyver's old Chevrolet pick-up truck. Even though the assilant turns out to be Murdoc, it cannot be confirmed that his actor - Michael Des Barres - is firing the revolver.

However, she is stopped by Murdoc from doing anything rash. Murdoc ends up smooth talking Suzanne into giving the shotgun to him.

When Suzanne and Amy try to escape with a car, Amy - distrusting Murdoc - runs to MacGyver to warn him. Suzanne rushes to get the shotgun left behind by Murdoc.

Rifles/Carbines

Valmet M71S

In "Pilot" (S1E01), Central Asian soldiers as well as MacGyver are seen using the Valmet M71S, in place of AK-47. All of these rifles appear to have 30-round .223 pre-ban metal magazines. Based on the shape of the stock, these are plastic handguard/resin-stock variants. Valmet didn't produce Valmet M71 with plastic handguard/resin stock in orange color, which would mean that the handguards and stocks have been painted over with orange color.

S1E01 - Hostile sentries playing around with their rifles leaning against a rock. You can see funky shaped stock on the right rifle.

S1E01 - MacGyver trying to avoid detection while donning a enemy uniform and a AK.

AKM (semi-auto import clone)

Has multiple appearances in the series

• "Pilot" (S1E01) - When MacGyver (Richard Dean Anderson) goes to seek a missile hidden in a tent, a noticeable continuity error occurs, as the Valmet M71 he carried in previous scene has changed to a AKM. Though since this a mid-1980s American production, this gun would more likely to be semi-auto import like Maadi ARM than an actual AKM. He later uses the AKM as part of a MacGyver'ed distraction to allow MacGyver to get the captured fighter pilot escape from a cage.
  Most peculiarly, MacGyver - who is later established as a very anti-gun person - opens fire towards the chasing sentries to fend them off. The reason for the uncharacteristically casual way he handles firearms in the pilot episode is exactly because this is the pilot episode. So details like MacGyver's backstory and aversion of firearms were merely in flux, depending on whatever the show would get picked up by a tv network or not.
  The AKM is confirmed to be a live firing variant, as the rifle ejects casings and muzzle flash is ocassionally caught on film. He later gives the AKM to prisoner while he starts to work on the escape plan.

• "Gauntlet" (S1E04) - Wielded by Arabic soldiers

Maadi ARM - 7.62x39mm. This Egyptian clone of AKM is often seen in American movies.

S1E01 - MacGyver strolling alongside a tent. Continuity gaffe here, as in previous scene, he carried a Valmet M71 and not a AKM

S1E01 - The cursed image of MacGyver willfully firing an AKM towards chasing sentries. This being the pilot episode, MacGyver's aversion of firearms was not yet established. Yellow circle to point a ejecting casing.

In "Pilot" (S1E01), the downed US pilot uses the AKM rifle as MacGyver devises their escape.

An enemy soldier wields the rifle in "The Gauntlet" (S1E04). Previously identified as Norinco Type 56, but the rifle obviously has the AKM's slant cut muzzle brake

Mauser 98 Sporter

Appears in "Widowmaker" (S3E08). Having lost the M9 Flamethrower, Murdoc (Michael Des Barres) goes to his pick-up truck to get some gear, including what appears to be a scoped Mauser 98 Sporter with a custom stock. Murdoc eventually catches up to MacGyver and Nikki, with MacGyver up a telephone circuit trying to send an SOS with his usual MacGyvering. Murdoc tries to shoot Mac, but Mac by chance slips a bit an Murdoc misses. Mac and Nikki flee going up the mountain and Murdoc gives chase. Murdoc catches up to them at the top, but Mac and Nikki have descended down the Widowmaker's cliffs. Murdoc has discards the rifle off-screen, as it would be too cumbersome to use in close quarters.

Makes a quick appearance in episode "Cleo Rocks" (S4E09) when Penny Parker (Teri Hatcher) is looking through file photos of Murdoc.

It is wielded by Murdoc (Michael Des Barres) who launches an all-out attack on MacGyver and Nikki Carpenter when they are talking their problems at a forest cabin near the Widowmaker mountain. Murdoc breaks in the cabin and attacks MacGyver and Nikki, engulfing the entire cabin in flames and burning it down. MacGyver and Nikki manage to escape by using a thick mattress to block the flames/liquid fuel. When MacGyver and Nikki set off Murdoc's booby-trap on Nikki's SUV, Murdoc goes to investigate. MacGyver disables the flamethrower by perforating the propellent tanks with a makeshift arc-welder, causing it to catch on fire and forcing Murdoc to abandon it as the propellent tanks explode.

FIM-43 Redeye

Appears in "Strictly Business" (S6E19). As MacGyver is travelling on road to wilderness by car, Murdoc (Michael Des Barres) ambushes him by using his pick-up truck as a road-block and armed with a FIM-43 that's decked with additional parts. Murdoc fires the launcher and blows up MacGyver's car and badly injures him.

This FIM-43 is decked out with an additional see-thru plastic blast shield in front and oversized pear seal in rear. It could be that these parts were added to protect the actor Michael Des Barres from the pyrotechnics of the prop. It could also be to make the rocket launcher more unique looking.
