Default Best gun movie
In the true spirit of Christmas, wondering if we can identify the best gun movie?

Here's my short list:

Aliens 1
Aliens 4
Kick Ass 1 (has a bazooka in it
Rambo 4 (Burma)
Predator 1

Heat and Way of the Gun are probably my favourites.

Heat for sure. The lobby scene in the first matrix was pretty awesome too.

Band of brothers...

although not a movie the portrayal of all the firearms in this series is impeccable. Some of which I own nice examples of. It happens to be marathon playing on history channel right now as a mater of fact.

Real guns used by real men.

Binge watching BoB today,

I'll add an old western - Winchester '73 with Jimmy Stewart.

If you are into old guns - Highwayman with Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson.

Remington Model 8 rifles
Remington Model 11 shotguns
Thompson M1921AC
Single Action Army revolvers
M1911 auto
Winchester Model 1912 shotguns
M1918 Browning BAR
Colt Monitor
Winchester Model 1894

I am a big fan of prohibition era history. I am slowly collecting all the firearms of that era that are legal for me to own - No BAR/Monitor or Thompson

Why no BAR or Thompson? They're perfectly legal to own.

Never had the time or energy to jump through the required hoops to get the tickets punched to have the real thing and I believe a real, no shit M1918 BAR goes for >$25K nowadays and the Thompsons aren't much cheaper.

Correction: The only M1918 I could find for sale has the bidding starting at $50K
