The film received a South Korean adaptation in 2022.

The following weapons were used in the film Remember (2015):

Handguns

Glock 17

Zev Guttman (Christopher Plummer) ends up purchasing a Glock 17 from the gun store in Ohio. John Kurlander (Dean Norris) also carries one as a sidearm. In one scene, Zev's bag containing the Glock 17 is inspected by a security guard in Idaho. Although Zev is initially nervous at the guard finding the gun, Idaho is a permitless carry state, so the guard instead reacts positively and states that the Glock "reminds me of my first gun" before sending him on his way.

Zev: "Glock? It is... German, no?"
Gun Shop Owner: "Well, you're in the right neighborhood- manufactured in Austria".

The Gun Shop Owner (James Cade) shows Zev a nickel Kimar Lady K as an example of small carry weapon. According to dialogue, it is chambered in .22 LR and likely meant to represent a .22 LR Walther PPK.

"Look, I'm not trying to give you the hard sell, but $500 more, you can get yourself a gun with real stopping power."

Gun Store

The gun store in Ohio contains numerous firearms (most of which are likely airsoft/replicas).

"We got everything. SIG-Sauers, 1911s, Glocks, single-action, double-action."
Multiple firearms are seen in the gun store. The left side has racks with multiple Winchester Model 1894s, AK-47s with Romanian-style wooden foregrips, multiple M1 Garands, several unidentifiable rifles and shotguns, and a few M14-style rifles. In the corridor behind the owner are two SA80 series rifles, a TAR-21, and a two full-sized Uzis.
The pistol case contains at least one SIG-Sauer P226 and Colt Single Action Army along with multiple other pistols and revolvers. To the owner's left is a large-caliber rifle of some sort.

Behind the Gun Shop Owner are more M1 Garands and an AK, several 20" barrel AR-15-style rifles, and several StG 58-style FN FALs.
