Mad Max: Fury Road is the fourth film in the Mad Max film series and the first to star Tom Hardy as Max Rockatansky. In the film, Max becomes involved with the plans of Imperator Furiosa (Charlize Theron), who intends to make her escape from the tyrannical warlord Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) after liberating his captive "breeders" - young women whom he holds prisoner in the hopes of producing a healthy male heir. Unlike the previous three films, Fury Road was shot almost entirely on location in Namibia, rather than Australia.

Also unlike the previous three films, where firearms were a scarce commodity and rarely used, Fury Road features a large number of firearms that are used liberally by many of the characters. This is partially explained by the existence of Joe's "satellite" domains, The Bullet Farm and Gas Town, run by his lieutenants the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) and the People Eater (John Howard), respectively, which allow Joe's forces to manufacture ammunition and explosives, rather than having to hoard what little remains of either.

The following weapons were used in the film Mad Max: Fury Road:

WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!

Pistols

Browning Hi-Power

Max Rockatansky (Tom Hardy) obtains a Browning Hi-Power after killing the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) and his men in the Green Place, keeping it as his personal sidearm for the remainder of the film. He later uses it to shoot at Slit (Josh Helman) at the start of the final chase.

Browning Hi-Power - 9x19mm

Glock 17

A 2nd Generation Glock 17 is featured as the most prominent weapon in the War Rig's extensive arsenal. It is used by Max, Furiosa, and one of Immortan Joe's wives, Toast the Knowing (Zoë Kravitz), for most of the film. Shortly after the brutal fight between Max and Furiosa, the Glock is briefly portrayed as a 3rd Generation model, implying that two distinct, non-identical props were used for the film.

Glock 17 (2nd Generation) - 9x19mm

Glock 17 (3rd Generation) - 9x19mm

The Glock 17 revealed after Furiosa smashes the ornamental skulls concealing it along the War Rig's trailer.

During the struggle for control of the Glock, the pistol's magazine is accidentally ejected and lands right in front of Nux, who then desperately attempts to reach for it.

After the magazine gets ejected during Max' and Furiosa's fight, Furiosa attempts to shoot Max in the head with the Glock only for the Glock's chambered round to temporarily disorientate Max and ricochet off the trailer.

Max manages to load the Glock 17 again, fires several rounds into the sand, and threatens Furiosa with the Glock. Note that the Glock 17 hear is the 3rd Generation model even though it was the 2nd Generation Model earlier in the screenshot above. This is a continuity error.

Taurus PT99AF

Furiosa's personal sidearm is a blued Taurus PT99AF, which is confiscated by Max after he joins her and the wives. During the final chase, Immortan Joe draws and fires a stainless steel PT99AF at Max.

Luger P08

Another weapon included in the War Rig's arsenal is a Luger P08, which Max confiscates and uses against the Rock Riders and one of Immortan Joe's Imperators during the last leg of the initial chase. It is also fired by one of the Vuvalini (played by Joy Smithers) at the People Eater's limousine during the final chase scene.

Mauser C96

Another weapon Max confiscates while on the War Rig is a Mauser C96. The People Eater also carries a C96 as his personal weapon, which he attempts to use on Max during the final chase.

Colt M1911A1

During the film's final chase sequence, the War Boy Slit (Josh Helman) is armed with a Colt M1911A1, which he fires at Max and the War Rig.

Unknown Derringer

Before proceeding with his lone search for the War Rig in the Green Place, the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) loads what appears to be a single-shot derringer of some kind, with a bullet extracted from a gap between his teeth.

While counting their remaining bullets after the first chase, Toast (Zoe Kravitz) holds up a small derringer (calling it a "little pinky"), announcing in a falsely cheery voice that they have "a raunchy" twenty-nine shells for it.

Revolvers

Colt Anaconda

Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne) keeps a Colt Anaconda as one of his personal sidearms, and brandishes it during the first and last chase scenes.

Colt Single Action Army

The Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) is shown to keep a pair a Colt Single Action Army revolvers in holsters strapped to his upper arms. Whilst searching for the War Rig in the Green Place, he fires two long-barreled "Buntline Special" models fitted with adjustable rear sights before switching to an IMI Uzi. The People Eater's (John Howard) custom limousine rig incorporates the grip and frame of a stainless steel Single Action Army into its gear lever.

Ruger Vaquero

Both Immortan Joe and his eldest son, Rictus Erectus (Nathan Jones), carry Ruger Vaqueros with stainless steel bodies and ivory grips as personal sidearms. Nux (Nicholas Hoult) is given Joe's Vaquero when the latter orders him to kill Furiosa and stop the War Rig during the last leg of the initial chase, but drops it after tripping and nearly falling from its trailer less than a minute later.

Ruger Vaquero - .45 LC

Webley .455 Mk IV

A Webley .455 Mk IV is yet another weapon in the War Rig's arsenal. It is initially confiscated by Max after he joins Furiosa and the wives, but is later used by Furiosa to gun down one of Immortan Joe's War Boys near the end of the first chase.

Smith & Wesson Model 30

Max also confiscates what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 30 after deciding to ride with Furiosa and the wives on the War Rig. He later uses it to shoot and kill the Rock Rider Chief (Stephen Dunlevy) towards the climax of the film's first chase.

Smith & Wesson Model 30 - .32 S&W

Enfield No. 2

One of the weapons in the War Rig's arsenal is an Enfield No. 2, which Max confiscates after joining Furiosa and Immortan Joe's wives in their journey to the Green Place. The Bullet Farmer's custom Howe & Howe Ripsaw vehicle, dubbed the Peacemaker, incorporates the grip and frame of an Enfield into its spotlight.

Enfield No. 2 Mk I. - .38 S&W

Submachine Guns

Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDW

After being blinded by Furiosa in the Green Place, the Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter) wields and fires two Heckler & Koch MP5K-PDWs fitted with Brügger & Thomet folding stocks and Aimpoint M68 reflex sights mounted on Weaver rails.

Shotguns

12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun

Miss Giddy (Jennifer Hagen), the elderly Wordburger and caretaker of the Five Wives, threatens Immortan Joe with a full-length 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun after he realizes Furiosa has smuggled them out of the Citadel. One of the Vuvalini women is armed with a double barreled shotgun as well.

Immortan Joe proceeds to quickly push Miss Giddy's shotgun upwards, causing the shotgun to accidentally go off and send a round into the room's ceiling.

Republic Arms Musler

Another weapon on the War Rig is a Republic Arms Musler shotgun modified with a pistol grip and vertical foregrip attached to its forward action, likely adapted to Furiosa's mechanical arm. Max confiscates it after he joins her and the Five Wives before giving it back to her to use against the Rock Riders when they give chase. It is later used by Keeper of the Seeds (Melissa Jaffer) during the final chase, before it is snatched by a Gastown Polecat. One of the Imperators accompanying Immortan Joe near the end of the initial chase sequence is armed with a Musler as well, albeit without the vertical foregrip.

The shotgun can be seen resting next to the driver set of the War Rig during the confrontation between the Buzzards and the Way Boys.

"Here we go, girls!"
The Keeper of the Seeds racks the shotgun before the start of the final battle.

Sawed-off Double Barreled Shotgun

As in the original Mad Max films, Max's personal weapon is a Sawed-off Double Barreled Shotgun. It is taken from him by the War Boys early on in the film and given to Nux, who uses in an attempt to kill Furiosa during the first chase sequence, but misses. Max takes the shotgun back after Nux's car crashes in the sandstorm and attempts to use its remaining cartridge to blow Nux's wrist off in order to separate the chained tether between them, only for it to end up being a dud. He then uses it to threaten Furiosa and the Five Wives for water and a pair of bolt cutters. In the subsequent fight between him and Furiosa, the shotgun is dropped and later picked up by Toast the Knowing after Max tries to drive away with the War Rig. Max confiscates it shortly afterwards and, sadly, never uses it again.

After Max cleans the sand off the shotgun shells, he proceeds to snap the shotgun shut.

Max attempts to amputate Nux's left hand only for the shotgun to malfunction, emitting sparks and smoke in the process.

Izhmash AKM

After using up the ammo for his MP5-PDWs in his blind shooting spree, the Bullet Farmer switches to a pair of Izhmash AKMs(according to the graphic novel prequel, the Farmer's previous name was "Major Kalashnikov").

Izhmash AKM - 7.62x39mm.

SKS

An SKS rifle is another weapon on the War Rig. It lacks both a bayonet and cleaning rod, and features a pair of Weaver rails for mounting a scope as well as a wooded grip extension affixed to its forend, presumably to give Furiosa (Charlize Theron) a better grip on it with her mechanical left arm. She uses it during the last leg of the first chase, gunning down several Rock Riders and one of Immortan Joe's Imperators. Afterwards, she attaches a long-range scope to the SKS and uses it as a sniping weapon, first to kill two pursuing Imperators and later to shoot out the Bullet Farmer's spotlight in the Green Place after Max fails to do so, blinding the Farmer in the process. Toast the Knowing (Zoe Kravitz) is seen handling the SKS as well, once to reload it during the first chase and again when sorting the War Rig's available weapons and ammunition.

SKS - 7.62x39mm.

Traditions Kentucky Rifle

Some of the Vuvalini women use Traditions Kentucky Rifles, a modern version of the Kentucky Flintlock Rifle that utilizes with a caplock mechanism rather than a flintlock. During the final chase, Max takes a half-loaded Kentucky rifle from one of the Vuvalini and fires it at a Polecat trying to get to the War Rig's cab, spearing him with its ramrod.

Traditions Kentucky Rifle - .50 caliber.

Automatic Weapon

Rictus Erectus (Nathan Jones) also is seen wielding an automatic weapon that resembles a heavy machine gun (complete with something like spade grips and a tank machine gun trigger), but apparently firing shotgun ammunition.

The Bullet Farmer

The Bullet Farmer (Richard Carter), who styles himself the "Judge, Jury and Executioner" of The Bullet Farm, wears a headdress of bullets (which appear to be 7.62 caliber) in parody of a British Judge's wig. He has also replaced some of his teeth with bullets, which can be extracted and loaded into his weapons. After the Farmer is killed, Max brings a sack of weapons and ammo back to Furiosa and the Wives, with the headdress draped over his shoulder.
