Guns used in the film '''''The Most Dangerous Game'''''. The film is based off of a short story of the same name by Richard Connell and concerns a shipwrecked man, Robert Rainsford ([[Joel McCrea]]) who is hunted on an island for sport by an evil Russian count ([[Leslie Banks]]).

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08|Luger]] handgun is used throughout the film by the villains to force Rainsford ([[Joel McCrea]]) and others to comply. At the climax of the film, Count Zaroff ([[Leslie Banks]]) retrieves the weapon from a desk drawer and tries to shoot Rainsford with it. Later, Rainsford uses the Luger to shoot one of Zaroff's men.

==Savage Model 19==
Whilst hunting Rainsford, Zaroff carries a bolt-action Savage Model 19 with a Lyman 438 field scope on it.

==Trivia Section==
*The film bears many crossover elements with 1933's ''[[King Kong (1933)|King Kong]]'', which actually was shot concurrent to ''The Most Dangerous Game''. In addition to the fact both films used the same jungle set, actors [[Robert Armstrong]], Fay Wray and [[Noble Johnson]] (who appeared as the Skull Island native chief in ''Kong'') appear in both films.
