	Louis is seen doodling a couple of pictures during his accompanying Carl and James on their work route. The first shows their standard garbage truck but with a man firing what seems to be some kind of sniper rifle from the cab and some kind of missile mounted on the top. The other drawing is of a otherwise plain-looking helicopter inexplicably firing missiles upon a pier full of people.

'''''Men At Work''''' is a 1990 dark comedy film written and directed by [[Emilio Estevez]] who also co-stars along with his brother [[Charlie Sheen]]. The film has the brothers Estevez and Sheen portraying a couple of indifferent prankster garbagemen who inadvertently stumble onto the body of a dead politician and an illegal offshore toxic chemical dumping conspiracy.

=Special=
==Pellet Rifle==
The eponymous and never-more-descript 'Pellet Gun' is the film's most prominent weapon, seen used throughout the film by Carl Taylor ([[Charlie Sheen]]), James St. James ([[Emilio Estevez]]), and Louis Fedders ([[Keith David]]).
[[Image:MAW_PelletGun_01.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Carl Taylor ([[Charlie Sheen]]) fooling around with his "Pellet Gun" near the beginning of the film.]]

[[Image:MAW_PelletGun_06.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Louis Fedders ([[Keith David]]) fools around with Carl's "Pellet Gun".]]
[[Image:MAW_PelletGun_07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Well ok, then. Let's be nice. Let's be civil. And let's drop those guns before I pull this trigger and change the way you feel about me."'' Louis - as very much a bluff - holds the pellet gun on their pizza man hostage (Dean Cameron) as he commands the two ornery cops Mike and Jeff to discard their weapons.]]
[[Image:MAW_PelletGun_08.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Lot of good this thing's gonna do us."'' James laments as he unloads a single pellet from the gun.]]
[[Image:MAW_PelletGun_09.jpg|thumb|none|600px|James ([[Emilio Estevez]]) wields the pellet gun as part of making his own bluff.]]

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
The [[Colt Official Police]] is the apparent sidearm of the antagonizing (at least to Carl and James) Las Playas Police Officer Mike ([[John Putch]]) and his partner Jeff ([[Tommy Hinkley]]).
[[Image:ColtOP4.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Colt Official Police, 4" barrel - .38 Special]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 686==
Biff ([[Hawk Wolinski]]), one of Maxwell Potterdam's ([[John Getz]]) main henchmen, carries a [[Smith & Wesson Model 686]].
[[Image:S%26WModel686.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Smith & Wesson Model 686, 4" barrel - .357 Magnum]]
[[Image:MAW SW686_1.jpg|thumb|none|600px|''"Hi, kids. Are we having fun?"'' Biff mockingly announces his presence while brandishing his S&W Model 686.]]

[[Image:MAW SW686_3.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Biff with his S&W Model 686 on Carl ([[Charlie Sheen]]).]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 36 (Nickel)==
Mario ([[John Lavachielli]]), Biff's partner henchman, is seen carrying a polished nickel [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]].
[[Image:S%26WModel36Nickel.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Smith & Wesson Model 36, nickel finish - .38 Special]]
[[Image:MAW SW36.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Mario runs out with a Model 36 in-hand.]]

==Unknown==
Two "rent-a-cops" draw unknown handguns on Louis ([[Keith David]]). As they are seen at a distance (and well out of any focus), a definitive ID can't be made.
[[Image:MAW UnknownRevolvers.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The two security officers draw down on Louis ([[Keith David]]) prompting him to declare to the audience he "hates rent-a-cops too".]]

=Submachine Guns=
==TEC-9 Mini==
Several of Maxwell Potterdam's other henchmen are seen with [[Intratec TEC-9 Mini]]s.

=Less-Lethal=
==Taser==
Mario ([[John Lavachielli]]) is first seen wielding a nondescript [[Taser]], which he specifically describes, much to the ire of his partner henchman Biff ([[Hawk Wolinski]]).
[[Image:MAW SW686+Taser.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Biff and Mario hold their weapons on Carl and Susan Wilkins ([[Leslie Hope]]). On the right is Mario with his Taser.]]

==Louis' Drawings==
Louis is seen doodling a couple of pictures during his accompanying Carl and James on their work route. The first shows their standard garbage truck but with a man firing what seems to be some kind of sniper rifle from the cab and some kind of missile mounted on the top. The other drawing is of a otherwise plain-looking helicopter inexplicably firing missiles upon a pier full of people.
