That poster in the police office is insulting and stupid, as it says "All CIVILIAN assault weapons should be banned", and then shows four civilian guns that are considered "assault weapons". - Gunmaster45

Type 56-1

Note: Not an AK-47 as originally thought, not with the folding stock, and considering the fact that the sight was most likely hooded, it must be a Type 56-1.

I don't think it's a Type 56. The Type 56-2 (which is the version with the side-folding stock) has a different stock design than that. The Type 56 also retains the smooth receiver cover of the older AK-47 models (as opposed to the strengthened ribbed design of the AKM), but that rifle looks like it might have a ribbed one. East German MPiKMs do have stocks that look like that and ribbed receiver covers, so I'm guessing it might be one of those. I would need to see the front sight, as well as the receiver, in better detail to figure out whether it's a Type 56.
It's either an East German or Romanian side folding stock. It has to be an AKM, not a Type 56, because the side folding stocks don't fit on the Chinese receivers. MoviePropMaster2008

AKM

This one is a Type 56 with the "pig sticker" removed (though the front sight still has the mount for it). -MT2008
Are you sure? I thought it was an AKM because of the slanted muzzle. --AdAstra2009 02:59, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Plenty of Chinese Type 56s have slant muzzle breaks. Look at the picture on my user page and you can see that my own Chinese AK has one. If it has the wider .75" front sight, it's a Type 56. Also, the mounting for the pig sticker beneath the front sight is unique to the Type 56. -MT2008

AWB Poster

^BOO! - Gunmaster45
Haha lol agreed! Even though they are cops and have to deal with getting shot at every day. But still: 16 inch barrels and 15 round magazines? Come on. -Gunman69 06:25, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Reminds me of a poster I saw in 16 Blocks showing an infant handling an M1911A1 and spouting some anti-gun statistics about the rate of children getting killed from playing with guns. I decided to exclude it from the article due to the controversy the AWB poster in this film has created. Orca1 9904 14:47, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
Actually, you can see that poster right next to the AWB poster in that screenshot. Orca1 9904 14:48, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
I wish someone would say to them "I don't know if you know this, but there is this really cool thing called the Second Amendment!" -Gunman69 03:52, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
A little fun fact, despite the posters claim that "A Child a day is killed by a handgun" and other bullshit claims of the period that stated 10 children a day die from all forms a gun violence, FBI records state that less than 100 kids die from gun violence each year. A sad number yet still far below that claimed by the anti-gun groups. Apparently the gun control movement is fond of large numbers of dead children so long as it serves their goal. By the way, thank you to whoever pulled this off of the main article. -Anonymous
Those AWB posters appear in all of Richard Donner's films. I guess since he makes films with lots of gun violence, those posters will make it all better. - Predator20 23:05, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
The other thing you'll see in Donner's films are posters about how evil wearing fur is. He used to have posters attacking South Africa and apartheid until the goverment got rid of that policy and freed Mandella. Then those posters went away. Donner is an idiot. Or perhaps the posters are more the idea of his wife Laura. --Jcordell 03:48, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
In the film Assassins an anti-NRA poster is seen several times on the side of a bus and a woman wearing a fur coat has a red circle with a line through it painted on the back. Donner is really not very subtle. -Anonymous
No Donner isn't very subtle. On the LW4 dvd commentary, he says he puts those in his films to "put the message out". He also said he couldn't understand why he would get complaints from real police officers about the ban NRA posters. --Predator20 15:22, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
How the hell could someone make a Lethal Weapon movie while being anti-gun? The movie contradicts the AWB message. That's just silly. In a bad way.--Oliveira 15:29, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Beretta 92FS

I figured Martin Riggs got another Beretta 92FS for the final battle, because he doesn't use the Laser Sight after his gun was dis-assembled.

But, I suppose it's possible to simply put the gun back together again, Although, I doubt the gun was recovered after the House burnt down.
