The following guns were used in the film Payback:

Payback: The Director's Cut (1999)

Smith & Wesson Model 27

Porter (Mel Gibson) uses a blued Smith & Wesson Model 27 4" with S&W factory combat grips for the majority of the film after buying it in a pawn shop. It is not a Smith & Wesson Model 29 as previously mentioned, as the diameter of the muzzle and cylinder chambers is clearly too small to be .44 Magnum.

Smith & Wesson Model 27 6" - .357 Magnum.

The pawn shop owner hands Porter a Smith & Wesson Model 27 from off the rack. His lack of gun safety is pretty obvious as he hands him the gun with the hammer cocked and his finger on the trigger.

Left: Porter swings open the cylinder and spins it. A ratcheting sound effect is heard even though there is nothing for the cylinder to ratchet against. Right: Porter examining the gun barrell.

Porter hands the shop owner the Model 27 back to make a purchase. Without a background check or a pistol permit, it is doubtful he would have actually made the purchase.

Porter searches his wife's house with his Model 27.

A Model 27 with regular grips is seen in Detective Hicks' (Bill Duke) holster.

Porter holds his Model 27 on Val in the hotel room.

Porter shoots Val in Rosie's (Maria Bello) house.

Porter uses a pillow to muffle the gunshot as he executes Val. This is movie fiction, as a pillow would not properly suppress a handgun, especially a revolver.

Porter holds his Model 27 on the Detectives before handing it to them outside the "Outfit's" building.

Arthur Stegman (David Paymer) holds a Model 27 on Porter in the back of a Taxi cab before he takes it from him.

Porter fires the Model 27 in an awkward akimbo stance along with a Beretta 92FS at the Triads.

Porter fires the two guns through the floor of the Triad van. You can see he is simply dry-firing the gun as no muzzle flash is seen, likely a safety procaution for firing blanks at such close proximity.

A close up of the guns firing, with excellent shots of the gun's markings.

Porter rolls out from under the van and shoots the Triad driver.

Porter holds the Model 27 on Pearl (Lucy Liu).

The gun clicks empty.

Internal Affiars officers show off Porter's original Model 27 to Det. Hicks (Bill Duke) and Det. Leary (Jack Conley) after Porter left the gun (covered with their fingerprints) at the scene of Val's murder, along with one of their badges.

Colt Python

Lynn Porter (Deborah Kara Unger) uses a stainless Colt Python to shoot Porter (Mel Gibson) in the back after she and Val Resnick (Gregg Henry) decide to take the Triad's stolen money for themselves.

Colt Python - .357 Magnum.

Lynn shoots Porter in the back with the Colt Python. Although she blinks on the first shot, she does a good job of keeping her eyes open for the other five.

Val tries to comfort Lynn as she holds her Colt Python. Nice work following rule number three, finger off the trigger.

Beretta 92FS

Val Resnick (Gregg Henry) carries a Beretta 92FS pistol as his main sidearm, which Porter (Mel Gibson) takes from him and uses for the rest of the film.

Beretta 92FS - 9mm.

Val surrenders his Beretta 92FS when being stripped by an employee at "The Outfit".

Porter fires his Beretta 92FS akimbo with a Smith & Wesson Model 27 at the Triads.

Porter unloads on the Triads.

Porter rolls out from under the van and guns down the Triad driver.

Rosie (Maria Bello) holding Porter's Beretta 92FS.

Porter guns down two thugs in the bathroom with his Beretta 92FS.

Even though Porter had fired his Beretta 92FS multiple times during the final gunfight, the hammer is strangely down in this shot.

Porter fires his Beretta 92FS at the fleeing Outfit members.

Walther PP

Val Resnick (Gregg Henry) carries a Walther PP as secondary sidearm.

Walther PP - .32 ACP.

Val surrenders his Walther PP to an Outfit employee.

Smith & Wesson Model 49 "Bodyguard"

Val Resnick (Gregg Henry) carries Smith & Wesson Model 49 "Bodyguard" in an ankle holster.

Smith & Wesson Model 38 - .38spl. Aluminum framed version of Model 49.

An Outfit employee removed Val's Smith & Wesson Model 49 "Bodyguard".

The employee remarks on the ankle gun.

Walther PPK

Pearl (Lucy Liu) carries a Walther PPK with pearl grips (possibly in relation with her name) as her sidearm.

Walther PPK - .32 ACP.

Pearl fires her Walther PPK at Porter through the floor of the Triad van. Luckily for Porter, she is the worste shot in the world, and misses him at a 2ft distance with only the distance of a van to cover.

Pearl holds her Walther PPK on Porter.

The gun clicks empty instead of locking back like it should have on the last shot. Then again, maybe it misfired and Porter got really lucky.

SIG-Sauer P220

The Triad van driver is seen firing a SIG-Sauer P220 through the floor of the van at Porter (Mel Gibson). Earlier in the film Porter is seen taking a SIG P220 from one of Carter's (William Devane) guards after knocking him out with a roll of pennies and then using it to kill him. They are noted as the P220 model by their lack of double stack bulges on the frame, and their .45-sized muzzle diameters.

SIG-Sauer P220 - .45 ACP.

Porter shoots Carter with one of his guard's SIG-Sauer P220 pistols.

The Triad van driver fires his SIG-Sauer P220 at Porter under the van.

The Triad driver is shot by Porter. Note the lack of bulges in the frame.

One of the Outfit members at the end of the film tries to exit the car and shoot at Porter while armed with a SIG-Sauer P220. The actor playing this thug appears to be Patrick Kilpatrick.

M3 "Grease Gun"

When Porter (Mel Gibson) is attacked by the Triad gang members, two of them are seen firing M3 "Grease Guns". They clearly have external charging handles, helping to identify them as older M3s, not M3A1s.

M3A1 "Grease Gun" - .45 ACP.

One of the Triad gang members fires his M3 "Grease Gun" at the taxi cab.

The two Triads unload their M3 "Grease Guns".

Remington 870 Sawed-Off

Radioman (Kwame Amoaku) tries to save Arthur Stegman (David Paymer) with a sawed-off Remington 870 shotgun before being mowed down by the Triads. Based on the sling swivel on the pistol grip, it is assumed this gun was professional sawed down by a film armorer.

File:Rem870SO1.jpg

Remington 870 Sawed-Off - 12 Gauge.

Radioman holds his sawed-off Remington 870 on Porter when he disarms Stegman in the back seat of the taxi.
