In 1978 I was told by my grand dad that the secret to rifle accuracy is, a quality bullet, fired down a quality barrel..... How has that changed?

O'Connell's (Brendan Fraser) gun roll (I want one! fingerscrossed) contained -

Colt M1911A1 pistol
Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 revolver (x2)
Winchester Model 1897 shotgun (disassembled)
A knife, and a balisong.
Bandoleer's of shotgun ammo and dynamite


As to Charlotte's question - no idea - some variation on the ubiquitous 'Hollywood' magazine?

Two from 90's Michael Mann Classic "Heat"

In the drive-in ambush what was the rifle with which Val Kilmer provided cover from the roof?

In the bank shoot out what rifle did Al Pacino carry?

And from TV series The Sopranos:
What gun did Carmela grab, and from where, when she heard a suspicious noise in the house, while entertaining Father Phil?

and yes, I should get out more!

"In where eagles dare, what is the magazine capacity of the 'Schmeisser' / MP40 in the scene on the staircase" Clearly very , very large! Or is there a numerical answer?
