Airguns on film

[treetop]

skan swift is used in the film bourn supremisey when the guy is watching pamala landy from a sky scraper

are you sure its a Skan... and a Swift...

I do know for definite that mr Skan built a Walther WA 2000 look alike..
He never did say what for or where it went...

iIn the film it was definitely meant to look like the WA2000, so maybe a Skan but it could also a ironwood 22lr or 1 of the many airsoft copys that have been custom made...

as in...http://www.ironwooddesigns.com/2aprod/11022prod.html

Father Ted - Weihrauch HW35 masquerading as a police sniper rifle. I think Father Jack finds himself in the cross-hairs.

There's a 1980s French romantic comedy film with a nightwatchman guarding a building site, armed with a Original Diana 45 rifle. Good movie, can't remember what it was called!

Some kind of Daisy lever-action in 'Matinee', a Cuban missile crisis movie about a 'B'-movie film-maker.

Norman Wisdom gets shot in the 'derriere' by a posh kid using a BSA Cadet Major in one of his late 1950's comedies.

I think in one of the Avengers episodes (60,s but in colour)they used an Original 5 with a grey body?

Like this? Original 5 And here. Saw that episode and with the help of the collective genius of the BBS identified it and I bought this from Henry Krank this week


Good luck, Phil

Just found a news paper cutting from the Daily Mail, dated February 15th 2001,
the Walther LP53 that James Bond used in the photo shoot for "From Russia With Love," sold at auction for..£14,100!!! That is equivalent to £17,000
today.

The barrel of a GAT pop-out pistol is used to kill a woman.Talk about,"you'll poke your eye out kid!"

There's a Walther LPM1 with bits stuck onto it in one of the newer Star Wars films.
I can't remember which...

There is a British film from the late eighties called The Naure Of The Beast about two northern lads hunting an escaped big cat on the moors. The cat is a metaphor for unemployment. Air-rifles feature prminently in the film and one character offers to swap one for a camera. He says "It's a BSA" but I cannot remember which model. I recommend the film but with the warning that it is very bleak.

It was a BSA Cadet.

IIRC a Webley pistol got used as a tranquiliser gun in XXX with Vin Diesel?
