Favorite Movie Shotgun?

[.455_Hunter]

What's your favorite shotgun or shotgun scene from the big screen?

For me, it the custom PGO Ithaca 37 used by Corporal Hicks of the Colonial Marines in Aliens.

Romancing the stone. Bus shootout and jungle chase/shootout with left handed sawed off Remington 870 with about a 15 shot capacity.

 

[ColtPythonElite]

Walking Tall.....Buford Pussers son, Mike, (Leif Garrett) walking into the hospital carrying a pump gun so he could protect Buford...I remember sitting in the front seat of a 1965 Plymouth Fury with my parents at a drive-in the first time I saw that movie.

The ones that blow the victims through walls and windows and down hallways while leaving the shooter unmoved by recoil. Those are my favorites.

Yes- I forgot about that! Made me want one real bad as a broke HS Senior.

Winchester Model 12 (take that @Showman lol) in The Untouchables.

 

[herrwalther]

Winchester 1887. Made popular by the Terminator 2 film where Arnold does a one handed flip while on motorcycle. And yes I still want one. Even if it is a knock off and not a real Winchester. When every shotgun around is a pump or semi-auto, a lever action just looks cool to me. I would not be stupid enough to try cocking and firing it with one hand though.

[Bandit67]

Clint Eastwood
W. Richards 10 gauge double barrel
Unforgiven

 

[earlthegoat2]

Jean-Claude Van Damme in Hard Target with the Mossberg 590 Marinecote Mariner.

 

[PapaG]

The Remington (58, I believe) with suppressor in No County for old Men. Javier Bardem was the scariest bad guy ever.

 

[Steve Milbocker]

Like the ones Doc Rock talks about like when Robert Duvall takes the guy out through the wall in Open Range

Jean-Claude Van Damme in Hard Target with the Mossberg 590 Marinecote Mariner.

There’s some great marinecote action in “Sneakers” also.

 

[armedwalleye]

The takedown Model 12 in "Bullitt".

 

[gpb]

Winchester Model 1911SL. "The Dentist", W. C. Fields.

 

[glockgod]

El Dorado,James Caans sawed and shortened double barrel complete with holster. The perfect gun for a man that can't shoot.
Favorite lines "He was limping when he left". "HE WAS LIMPING WHEN HE GOT HERE!!"
Good John Wayne Flick with lots of good one liners.

 

[entropy]

No one has mentioned Mad Max's shorty SxS?

 

[Speedo66]

I liked Katy Jurado with hers in Peckinpah's "Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid".

 

[Hartkopf]

Winchester 1887. Made popular by the Terminator 2 film where Arnold does a one handed flip while on motorcycle. I would not be stupid enough to try cocking and firing it with one hand though.

Only attempt if you are a 400 pound, crazy strong cyborg from the future.

That was my favorite movie shotgun as well. It was always magically loaded with slugs too!

Hollywood has much to answer for... on the other hand... If I'm ever downrange of someone with a shotgun I sure hope they're only "shotgun learning" was either on TV or at the movies...

And yes the scene in Open Range where a bad guy is hit through a thin wooden wall and is blown five feet away has to be either a high point or a low point (depends on your point of view...) of movie BS...

A sobering thought... if you're ever the guest of honor at a self defense trial knowing that many actually believe the mis-information they've seen on popular TV (and that some of those fine folks might actually be on your jury....) is the kind of stuff that might keep you up at night if you stop and think about it...

 

[Corpral_Agarn]

always had a thing for the Winchester 1897.

here it is in the wild bunch:

.

I think Hollywood has a WHOLE lot to answer for! I blame much of society's current problems squarely on Hollywood!!

Please keep on topic.

Kind of a hands-down #1 for me has always been Henry (or Rico) Fardan's '97 Winchester from *The Professionals*.


#2... Doc's High Standard from *The Getaway*.


American rack-backs.... The original "Slide-for-life".
