    Default Internet Movie Firearms Database

    I just found this site and thought I'd share it: http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Main_Page

    Seems interesting for fans of movies and/or video games.

    I remeber I was watching Heat and wanted to know what kind of gun Al Pacino had, and thats the site that showed me. I like that site.

    I found that site maybe a year ago and I thought it was an interesting novelty, but I find myself going there more and more frequently in order to identify firearms in movies and add to my wishlist.

    Ok Im a little confused by this. Read this.

    http://www.imfdb.org/index.php/Heat#FN_FNC-80


    Then tell me if you think they were actually firing live rounds. Cause thats what it sounds like.

    I assume you mean the following two statements?

    Despite being a full auto weapon, the director Michael Mann instructed Al Pacino to fire only Semi auto, being that the LAPD lieutenant would be concerned for stray rounds hitting bystanders.
    Most likely, the director just wanted to give Pacino a bit of real-world advice. Any police officer should know the risks of civilian casualties in a firefight. Even the Army trains to only fire semi, which is why I loved my SAW.

    Hanna reloads his FN FNC-80 and forgets there is a round in the chamber. Note live round ejecting in mid air. Oops.
    Can't quite make out the picture, but the above statement is probably just in reference to Pacino's mistake. He stops firing, does a reload and charges the rifle. The author of that page was probably just amused that he saw a round ejected, meaning Pacino's rifle wasn't dry.

    Anyway, I think Heat is one of the movies I have yet to get on DVD. I'll have to check. I remember when it first came out and the bank robbery and resulting firefight is still one of the best shootout scenes in a movie to date.

    I see what you are saying. The LAPD lieutenant IS Pachino. Duh. Lol


    And the shoot out Is awesome. One of my friends told me that public enemies has a better one though. Haven't seen it yet.
