162.83.167.40: /* CZ99 */

'''The following guns were used in the movie ''[[The Matrix]]'''''
[[Image:The Matrix Poster.jpg|right|225px|thumb|''[[The Matrix]]'' (1999)]]

== GE M134 Minigun ==

Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) opens up a 6 barreled 7.62x51mm [[GE M134 Minigun]] in a door mounting on a Bell 212 helicopter while rescuing Morpheus.

== Glock 17 ==

In the opening scene police burst in on Trinity ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) with [[Glock#Glock 17|Glock 17s]] drawn.

== Desert Eagle ==

The Agents, including Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]), are always armed with [[Desert Eagle]]s, chambered in .50 Action Express. In one scene, Agent Smith shoots Neo in the chest with his Desert Eagle approximately a dozen times without reloading, despite this version of the Desert Eagle only having a 7-round magazine. Naturally a result of the movies own quaint rulebreaking mechanics.

== Beretta M84F Cheetah ==

Closing out the opening shot Trinity ([[Carrie-Anne Moss]]) unleashes twin [[Beretta Cheetah]]s on the assembled police and agents as she makes her escape. While rescuing Morpheus, Trinity kills an Agent with her Beretta M84 Cheetah, managing to get close enough for a point-blank shot to the head which the Agent was unable to dodge.

[[Image:The-Matrix-Beretta-Cheetah-3.jpg|thumb|none|400px|"Dodge this."]]

== CZ99 ==

Apoc gives Neo ([[Keanu Reeves]]) his [[Zastava CZ99]] pistol as they try and escape an Agent-led SWAT attack after visiting the Oracle. The weapon is a CZ99 and ''not'', as has been written previously, a [[Sig Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P228|SIG P228]]; some of the weapons rental invoice documents published on Propstore.com have confirmed this. The CZ99 is a Serbian-made pistol which is based on the P220 series, but is actually a very different weapon.

[[Image:The-Matrix-Sig-Sauer-P228.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Apoc hands Neo his CZ99]]

== Beretta 92FS ==

Neo can be seen with a pair of [[Beretta M92F#Beretta 92 FS|Beretta M92FS]] pistols during the mission to rescue Morpheus. In one scene he attempts to engage an Agent with them, emptying the magazines of both pistols to no effect. He later uses one in a duel with Agent Smith ([[Hugo Weaving]]), but is unable to score a single hit, finally managing to get the barrel of his gun against Smith's head, only to be out of ammo as Smith mockingly points out.

[[Image:Matrix-Neo.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Neo, with twin Beretta M92FSs, drawn and at the ready.]]

== M16 ==

In the lobby scene the backup guards are armed with [[M16 rifle series#M16 Rifle|M16]] rifles (the weapons lack the forward assist, which means they are very early pre-1965 M16s) and [[SPAS 12]] shotguns. Neo commandeers this weapon twice: First during the lobby scene, and again while fighting another group of guards on the roof of the building.

[[Image:Neo-1-.jpg‎|thumb|none|400px|Neo fires the M16 at the guards on the roof of the government building.]]

== Micro Uzi ==

In the lobby scene Neo and Trinity both fire [[Uzi#Micro Uzi|Micro Uzis]], Trinity using one to kill one of the first guards Neo missed during his initial barrage.

[[Image:GAS MZ uzi.jpg|thumb|none|200px|Micro Uzi]]

[[Image:Matrix,_The_07-1-.jpg‎|thumb|none|360px|Trinity aims the Micro Uzi, during the lobby shootout. ]]

== Cobray M11/9 ==

Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) carries a [[MAC-10#Cobray M11/9|Cobray M11/9]] converted to full-auto with some type of barrel attachment, and is famously seen firing it to lay down cover fire while he and the others are fleeing from the SWAT team (you can tell it's a Cobray M11/9 and not an original Ingram MAC-10 because the back of the receiver is elongated).

[[Image:Matrix3.JPG|thumb|none|400px|Apoc ([[Julian Arahanga]]) letting loose with his [[MAC-10#Cobray M11/9|Cobray M11/9]] in ''[[The Matrix]]''.]]

== Heckler & Koch MP5K ==

In the lobby scene, Neo uses a pair of [[H&K MP5#Heckler & Koch MP5K|H&K MP5K]]s to eliminate the first set of guards.

[[Image:MP5K-SEF.jpg|thumb|none|300px|H&K MP5K - 9mm]]

[[Image:The-Matrix-MP5-PDW-2.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Neo wipes out the first set of lobby guards with dual MP5Ks.]]

== Mouse's Shotguns ==

Mouse ([[Matt Doran]])'s pair of shotguns are custom-built cam-operated electric drive automatic 12-gauge shotguns with 25-shell cylinders and a fire rate of 900 rounds per minute. They were crafted by [http://whatisthematrix.warnerbros.com/rv_cmp/int_john_bowring.html John Bowring], lead armorer of the film. As an inside joke Bowring named the guns "Andy" (serial no. A1169 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet Leetspeak] for Andy) and "Larry" (serial no. L2779 - [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet Leetspeak] for Larry) after the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wachowski Wachowski brothers].

[[Image:Matrix1.JPG|thumb|500px|none|'Mouse' toting Auto Shotguns in his last moments.]]

== Franchi SPAS 12 ==

In the lobby scene the backup guards are armed with M16 rifles and [[SPAS 12]] shotguns, some of which are comandeered and used against their original users by Trinity and Neo. The versions used by the guards have a solid fixed stock/pistol grip combination, similar to that available on the [[Benelli M3 Super 90]].

[[Image:Matrix,_The_08-1-.jpg|thumb|none|360px|Trinity with the Spas 12 in the lobby shootout.]]

== [[T2 MK5 assault rifle]] ==

The SWAT team that breaks into the apartment building during the "deja vu" scene are armed with Australian Automatic Arms Leader T2 MK5 assault rifles (the Semi automatic version known as the SAC). (although the weapons are never shown clearly on screen, this has been confirmed by the rental invoices from Propstore, which also has one of the rubber AAA carbines on sale). The Leader is loosely based on the [[Armalite AR-18]] and was planned to be the next service rifle of the Australian Army, but the rifle lost out to the [[Steyr AUG]] during the Australian Army's service rifle trials. The versions used in ''The Matrix'' are the "Commando" version which have 11.5-inch barrels; the weapons are also fitted with large tactical flashlights and laser sights.

[[Image:Aaasacsemiautocarbine.jpg|thumb|none|300px|AAA Leader SAC 5.56mm]]
[[Image:Aaac-number61-dvd7.jpg|thumb|none|400px|The SWAT team moves in with AAA Leader SAC carbines ready.]]

== Skorpion SA Vz 61 ==

Neo fires a pair of [[Skorpion SA|Skorpion SA Vz 61s]] fitted with muzzle shrouds in the lobby scene. His spent shell casings are incorrectly shown as 5.56mm and ejecting towards the ground, in reality the Skorpion SA was never chambered in a round so large and the spent casings would be ejected up and to his right. In some other shots, the actual shells of the Skorpion can be seen ejecting as well.

[[Image:Co1-1-.jpg‎|thumb|none|395px|Neo fires twin Skorpion Sa Vz 61s with barrel shrouds, during the lobby shootout.]]

== Sa vz 58 ==

Several [[Sa vz 58]] rifles can be seen on a rack behind Neo when he and Trinity are loading up prior to their mission to rescue Morpheus.

[[Image:800px-Sa 58-JH01.jpg|thumb|none|275px|Sa vz 58 7.62x39mm]]
[[Image:The-Matrix-MP5-PDW.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Several vz 58s sit on the rack as Neo loads up to save Morpheus.]]

== Browning Hi-Power ==

Switch ([[Belinda McClory]]) is seen carrying a chrome-plated [[Browning Hi-Power]] pistol as her weapon of choice, first holding Neo at gunpoint with it while Trinity removes the 'bug' the Agents planted in him, then using it to lay down cover fire along with Apoc while the others escaped the SWAT team, taking out several SWAT members in the process.

== Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver ==

The security guards in the lobby of the government building were armed with Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolvers.
