Truck Turner (1974)


Truck Turner is a surprisingly little-known 1974 Blaxploitation directed by Jonathan Kaplan and starring Isaac Hayes as the title character, a former pro football player turned bounty hunter. The cast included Yaphet Kotto, Paul Harris, and Star Trek star Nichelle Nichols.


The following weapons were used in the film Truck Turner:


Colt Python

The only gun that Mac 'Truck' Turner (Isaac Hayes) uses is a Colt Python with a 6" barrel.

Colt Detective Special

The Colt Detective Special is by far the most used gun is this film. It is used by pretty much everybody in the movie, most noticeably by Turner's partner, Jerry (Alan Weeks).
