Jigsaw (also known as Saw VIII) is a 2017 American horror film directed by Michael and Peter Spierig and written by Josh Stolberg and Peter Goldfinger. It is the eighth installment in the Saw franchise. The film stars Matt Passmore, Tobin Bell, Callum Keith Rennie, Clé Bennett, Hannah Emily Anderson, Laura Vandervoort, and Paul Braunstein and was released in the United States on October 27, 2017, by Lionsgate.

10 years after Jigsaw's death, the police detain Edgar Munsen (Josiah Black), who warns them about a new game. After that, the police begin to find the dead bodies of the participants in the new game. As the investigation progresses, suspicions grow, as Detective Haloran is confident that the new accomplice himself works in the police. At this time, five players are trying to survive in a new series of deadly tests.

2010's Saw 3D was originally deemed the final installment of the series, before Lionsgate commissioned the production of Jigsaw from a pitch by Stolberg and Goldfinger. It will be followed by a ninth installment, Spiral, in 2021.

The following weapons were used in the film Jigsaw:

Handguns

Glock 17

Unlike other police officers, Detective Brad Halloran (Callum Keith Rennie) carries a Glock 17 as his duty gun throughout the film. First, he, along with the other cops, shoot criminal Edgar Munsen, which gives Logan a reason to accuse him of Munsen's death. After that, the gun is seen in Halloran's hands during the raid on Bonneville's studio and during the confrontation with Logan and Eleanor in the night barn. SWAT officers also carry Glock 17 pistols in leg holsters, notably during the aforementioned police raid.

Shotguns

Double Barreled Shotgun (Sawed Off)

Jigsaw (Tobin Bell) uses a Sawed-Off Double Barrel Shotgun in the final test of the barn game, taking part in person. He loads the cartridge while explaining the rules (at the same time shocking all the viewers by his appearance), and then puts the gun on the rack. Anna (Laura Vandervoort) immediately grabs it, planing to shoot Ryan (Paul Braunstein), but the gun shoots backwards, killing her. Horrified, Ryan discovers that the phrase "buckshot is your key to freedom" was verbatim, retrieving the destroyed key to the shackles.
