Revision as of 23:54, 14 February 2013
Goldfinger is the third entry in the official James Bond film series. The 1964 sequel follows Bond (Sean Connery) as he assigned to investigate gold smuggling and stumbles upon a plot to destroy the US gold reserves in Fort Knox that appears to be orchestrated by a wealthy magnate who has obsessed with owning the precious metal. The film was the first blockbuster in the series and would set the tone for the majority of the films to follow.
The following weapons were used in the film Goldfinger:
Handguns
Walther PPK
James Bond (Sean Connery) keeps a brown-gripped .32 ACP Walther PPK in his shoulder holster, seen most prominently when a Cuban hitman, "Capungo" (Alf Joint, one of Sean Connery's stunt doubles), tries to grab it during the pre-credits sequence. The film marks the first time Bond does not fire a single round from his trademark weapon. Trivia: Capungo is not the name - it's frequently used as a synonym for the word "hitman" in Spanish-speaking countries, particularly Mexico and Cuba. In the original novel by Ian Fleming Capungo was killed by Bond by just a single kick to his neck.
Luger P08
The South American heroin factory guard Bond knocks out during the pre-credits sequence has a Luger P08 in his holster.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
One of Goldfinger's guards fires a Smith & Wesson Model 10 at Bond and Tilly as they try and escape in Bond's Aston Martin DB5.
Walther P38
When Bond (Sean Connery) first engages Goldfinger's men in a gunfight outside Goldfinger's Geneva factory, he fires a Walther P38 at them rather than his usual PPK, presumably from the under seat concealed firearm drawer (seen in publicity stills and films). Several of Auric Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe)'s guards can be seen carrying Walther P38s as their sidearms, one of which Bond also manages to commandeer before having to hand it back over to Pussy Galore (Honor Blackman).
[[Image:Gf-p38d.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Pussy Galore walks Bond back to his cell with his stolen P38]
Smith & Wesson Model 36
One of the Goldfinger's guards who sits next to Bond in his Aston Martin holds a Smith & Wesson Model 36 on him. In a continuity error, it later becomes a Walther P38.
Smith & Wesson Model 22
While flying to the United States, Bond correctly identifies Pussy Galore's (Honor Blackman) revolver as a Smith & Wesson Model 22 (when he says "Smith & Wesson .45"), also stating that a bullet fired from the gun would pass through him and the plane.
Colt Police Positive
One of Goldfinger's guards with Pussy Galore holds a Colt Police Positive on Bond.
Colt Official Police
During the raid on Fort Knox, Auric Goldfinger (Gert Fröbe) can be seen carrying a Colt Official Police revolver with a gold-plated finish and ivory grips while disguised as a U.S. Army Colonel, even shooting Mr. Ling (Burt Kwouk) with it, to fool Army soldiers during the shootout at the gold depository. Note: In the novel, Goldfinger uses a Gold-plated Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket and killed his victims with one shot through the right eye.
M1911A1
Oddjob (Harold Sakata) uses a suppressed M1911A1 to kill Solo (Martin Benson) while driving him to the airport in the Lincoln. This pistol is also used by US Army soldiers.
Submachine Guns
MP40
Goldfinger's guards carry MP40s, using them in most major gunfights of the film, with even Goldfinger himself using one briefly during the Fort Knox raid. This gun is also being tested on a bulletproof vest in Q's lab. The old lady working as a guard to Goldfinger's facility also carries an MP40.
M1928 Thompson
Some of the U.S. Army soldiers at Fort Knox attack Goldfinger and his men with older M1928 Thompsons with drum magazines and vertical foregrips. Note the switch from M14s (above, likely filmed in U.S.) to WWII era Thompson and carbines, most likely because the Fort Knox set was built in England and at the time (1964) M14s weren't readily available to UK armourers.
M1 Carbine
U.S. Army soldiers can be seen carrying M1 Carbines during the gas raid on Fort Knox. They are WWII Carbines judging by the darker wood walnut stock and lack of a bayonet lug.
M1928A1 Thompson
U.S. Army soldiers carry M1928A1 Thompsons during the gunfight with Goldfinger's men at Fort Knox.
Rifles
Armalite AR-7
Tilly Masterson (Tania Mallet) is seen twice using an Armalite AR-7 rifle to try to shoot Goldfinger. The same model rifle was used by Bond in From Russia with Love.
M14 rifle
U.S. Army soldiers at Fort Knox were seen with M14 rifles slung over their shoulders before Fort Knox was hit with fake knock-out gas by Pussy Galore's crew.
Karabiner 98k
Goldfinger's men carry Karabiner 98k rifles during their raid on Fort Knox.
M1 Garand
A number of U.S. Army soldiers were seen with M1 Garand rifles when they were raiding the gold depository at Fort Knox.
Other
Aston Martin machine guns
Q tells Bond about the machine guns installed underneath the lights of his customized Aston Martin DB5, which Bond uses during a car chase at Goldfinger's factory in Geneva.

Gun Barrel opening sequence
This film was the third and last in which Bond was played not by the main actor in the Gun Barrel sequence; again, it was stuntman Bob Simmons. The sequence is slightly different from what was seen in Dr. No and From Russia with Love but it utilized the same Smith & Wesson revolver barrel. [[Image:Goldfinger_Bob_Simmons.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The last time we can see Bob Simmons as James Bond killing someone with his Walther PPK, but not the last role for Bob Simmons in Bond movies - he also appeared in several cameos later. For example he also appeared as one of the U.S. Army soldiers with M1928 Thompson in this movie.]].
"The Guns of James Bond" Featurette
A short clip originally shown on the BBC and later put into the ultimate edition DVD special features of Dr. No titled "The Guns of James Bond," shows Sean Connery on the set of Goldfinger along with Geoffrey Boothroyd, a Scottish firearms expert who collaborated with Ian Fleming during the novels and convinced Fleming to make the switch from the Beretta to the Walther PPK. Fleming as a token of appreciation, had Major Boothroyd or "Q" named after him.
M1 Carbine
An extra playing the role of a US soldier on the Fort Knox set can be seen with an M1 Carbine.
M1928A1 Thompson
An extra playing the role of a US soldier on the Fort Knox set can be seen walking across the screen holding an M1928 Thompson.
Beretta M1934
Sean Connery can be seen holding a M1934 Beretta in the clip.
Beretta M71
Boothroyd can be seen demonstrating a Beretta Model 71 later in the clip.
Walther PPK
After shooting the Beretta, Boothroyd shoots the Walther PPK to compare it to the previous pistol.
Ruger Blackhawk
After shooting both pistols, Boothroyd shoots his personal favorite, the Ruger Blackhawk in .44 Magnum and describes it as a "man sized gun" but being impractical for Bond due to the barrel length and large recoil.
Walther P38
When demonstrating various types of holsters Boothroyd used a Walther P38 to show how a holster made of soft leather may get caught on the gun.
Unknown Revolvers
When Boothroyd is introducing himself an unknown revolver can be seen in his hand. Shortly after, Boothroyd gives an example of a shoulder holster and an unkown revolver is seen inside.
Diana 5 Air Pistol
In one demonstration Boothroyd uses a Diana 5 air pistol to light up a match on a makeshift shooting range the other side of the room he is in.
