What kind of guns did they use in Heat??

In specific the bank scene, what kind of guns did DeNiro, Kilmer and Madsen use?

You're right, I was thinking of Pacino's character. Though, as I recall...the robbers had a Heckler & Koch 91, not Colt M733A's. Right? Again, I'm a touch inebriated...but I could have sworn....

the HK91 or it could have been G3, but probably a 91 was used by Kilmer in the drive-in scene

Sizemore did have a Galil at one point too, I think in the robbery scene, since he had a shotgun at the drive-in
Heat is probably discussed at least once a week on one of the gun boards I frequent

We really need to start a "anything and everything related to Heat" thread and make it a sticky on this board.

Daaaaaa stupid me, what the hell was I thinking Madsen, geeze. Put down the pipe animal!

Anyways yes Tom Sizemore, his gun was different from Kilmers and DeNiro's.

Thanks for the info/pics/links.

I was thinking they were Colt AR15's with the short stock and flash supressors, but looks like I am wrong there too.

Anyways great post with pix too! Thanks!

These look very similiar

well, Colt CAR15 was the term used on the early model of that style, sometimes called a "commando" Another very similar model is the Colt XM177
http://world.guns.ru/assault/as50-e.htm

now AR15 pretty much only refers to semi-auto versions, and AR15 was the original model number of the Armalite made gun that became the M16 when the Army accepted it

Go down to a state that allows full auto firearms by getting a transfer of ownerhip paper done with and have a blast. When in vegas, I typically go down to the shooting ranges since they will gladly rent you out a full auto.

and be prepared to spend $10,000 or more for an actual M16 lower receiver(which is what's legally the firearm). plus the $200 tax stamp and long background check. plus local LEO sign off on the paperwork (unless you have a corporation). a registered "drop in auto sear" is probably cheaper but still will be a few thousand plus the price of an AR to put it in
alternatively you could get a semi-automatic AR15 and get a short barreled upper receiver so you'd still have the look. still requires the tax stamp and other hassles but probably under $1000, possibly even under $1000 including the SBR tax stamp
or if you want the long flash suppressor and no tax stamp get this upper. all you need is to be in a state without an AWB for this one http://www.bushmaster.com/shopping/u...ura2b11555.asp

per this http://www.mp5.net/info/sbsconr.htm it looks like WA state is a no-go for any NFA stuff

Yeah, that's why I'd rather just rent one from a shooting range.

they cost so much due to a law in 1986 that banned civilian ownership of any machine guns that were not already registered in civilian ownership
so they're all at least 18 years old and getting older

I just watched this movie last night again. I swear everytime I watch it I see or pick up on something new. Finally getting my wife interested in this show. Micheal Mann ties things up nicely but we don't really know what happens with Val Kilmer's character after he leaves. Just wish we could see what happens.
