The Hebrew Hammer

The Hebrew Hammer (2003)

The Hebrew Hammer is a 2003 comedy and blaxploitation spoof written and directed by Jonathan Kesselman and starring Adam Goldberg, Judy Greer, Mario Van Peebles and Andy Dick. Goldberg stars in the film as Mordechai Jefferson Carver, the Hebrew Hammer, who must stop the evil new Santa Claus (Andy Dick) from destroying Hanukkah. The film features cameos from Melvin Van Peebles (as his character from Sweet Sweetback's Baadasssss Song) and former New York City mayor Ed Koch.

The following guns were used in the movie The Hebrew Hammer.

Beretta 92FS Inox

Mordechai Jefferson Carver, the Hebrew Hammer's (Adam Goldberg) primary side arm throughout the film is a Beretta 92FS Inox. It appears to be a replica, possibly a Reck Miami 92F, since it never fires, and when he does fire, he switches to different guns.

Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose

Esther Bloomenbergensteinenthal (Judy Greer) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub Nose throughout the film. A member of the Kwanza Liberation Front draws the same gun on Mordechai when he visits the KLF Headquarters.

Note the adjustable sights.

Benelli M3

After walking into a Skinhead bar, Mordechai pulls a pair of Benelli M3 shotguns out of his coat. They also show up when Mordechai goes to the Kwanzaa Liberation Front headquarters to meet Mohammed Ali Paula Abdul Rahim. Since they're never fired, these may be Airsoft or replicas.
