Saw is a 2004 American horror film directed by James Wan and written by Wan and Leigh Whannell. It is the first installment in the Saw franchise (despite the fact that exists a short film with the same name, directed and starred by Leigh Whannell). The plot focuses on two men who awake to find themselves chained in a large dilapidated bathroom, with one being ordered to kill the other or his family will die. At the same time, the police, led by a detective David Tapp (Danny Glover), investigate a series of gruesome murders. All this is the plan of a serial killer, nicknamed Jigsaw, who has his own philosophy explaining all his actions. He believes that one who does not value life is not worthy of it.Saw was released in theaters in the United States on October 29, 2004, by Lionsgate Films, and a sequel, titled Saw II, was released in 2005.
The following weapons were used in the film Saw:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
Beretta 92FS
A Beretta 92FS is used by Detective Tapp (Danny Glover) after his dismissal (this is most likely his personal weapon). He loads the magazine after hearing gunfire in Gordon's apartment and runs there. He uses the gun during the gunfight with Zep Hindle (Michael Emerson) and later when he pursues Zep through the sewers.
Beretta 92FS Inox
Detective Steven Sing (Ken Leung) carries a Beretta 92FS Inox as a service sidearm in the flashback. After figuring out the location of the killer's hideout, Sing loads the gun and sets off with a colleague. Steven pulls out the gun only to fire off a "Drill Chair" trap and save hostage Jeff Ridenhour (Ned Bellamy), since he is mostly armed with a shotgun.
Smith & Wesson Model 686
A Smith & Wesson Model 686 is found lying on the floor next to the dead body (Tobin Bell) in the room. An unknown person through a Panasonic RN305 recorder explains Lawrence Gordon's (Cary Elwes) task: he has to kill Adam if he wants to see his family again. A little later, Gordon finds a bullet in his pocket. When Lawrence's nerves are running out, he inserts a bullet into the cylinder and shoots Adam in the shoulder, after which he leaves the gun on the floor.
Wilson Combat "Protector"
Zep Hindle (Michael Emerson) is armed with a two-tone Wilson Combat "Protector" throughout the film. He threatens Diana (Makenzie Vega) and Alison Gordon (Monica Potter) with a gun, forcing them to talk on the phone. Once released, Alison attacks Zep, temporarily taking possession of the gun. Zep also uses it in the gunfight with Detective Tapp. Adam (Leigh Whannell) briefly picks it up after killing Zep in the final act and tries point it at Jigsaw but gets shocked by a remote and drops it. Like Gordon's revolver, the "Protector" stays in the bathroom after the events of the film.
Zastava CZ99
The Zastava CZ99 appears as Detective David Tapp's (Danny Glover) primary service weapon in the flashback. At first, the gun lies holstered on the table while Tapp searches for evidence on the tape. After locating the killer's hideout, the detective takes the holster and goes with his partner to the abandoned mannequin factory, where he uses the gun during the search and confrontation with the dangerous inhabitant.
Shotguns
12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotguns
While pursuing Jigsaw (Tobin Bell), Detective Sing (Ken Leung) is killed when he steps on a trip wire that is connected to four loaded 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotguns that are mounted on the archway above him.
Ithaca 37 Deer Slayer Police Special
During the mannequin factory raid in the flashback, Detective Steven Sing (Ken Leung) is mostly armed with a Ithaca 37 Deer Slayer Police Special shotgun. He orders the hooded killer to surrender, but when he activates the "Drill Chair" trap, Steven throws the shotgun to Detective Tapp (Danny Glover) to save hostage Jeff Ridenhour (Ned Bellamy). In pursuit of the fleeing suspect, Sing takes the shotgun from his wounded partner and chases the fugitive down the hallway, managin to shoot him in the back.
Winchester 1300
When the camera zooms in on one of the shotgun's triggers, the shotgun turns into a Winchester 1300 due a continuity error.
Trivia
At the police station, a police officer can be seen carrying a holster with an almost invisible pistol. Several of Sing and Tapp's colleagues leaving the police station after a workday can also be seen with holstered pistols.
