Revision as of 17:37, 14 December 2009
The following weapons appeared in the 1984-1991 NBC television series Hunter:
During the first season, LAPD Det. Sgt. Rick Hunter (Fred Dryer) carries a Heckler & Koch P9S with muzzle compensator, also seen during the opening credits. He sometimes refers to it as "Simon".
Several characters throughout the course of the show use third generation Colt Detective Specials. In the pilot episode, a bank robber (John Diehl), the pimp Whispering Willie (David Labiosa), and Justin Taylor are seen with Detective Specials.
One of the bank robbers keeps a lupara up his sleeve in the pilot episode. One of the weapons used by "cowboy" bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) in "Dead or Alive" (1.08) is a lupara.
The bank guard in the pilot episode has a Smith & Wesson Model 19 holstered, taking it out after he goes with Hunter to chase down the suspects. A mobster uses one when breaking into Hunter's apartment in "Hard Contract" (1.02).
A thug dressed as a doctor attacks McCall with a Star Model B in the pilot episode, but she knocks it from his hand by knocking him over in her wheelchair.
After the pilot episode, Det. Sgt. Dee Dee McCall (Stepfanie Kramer) carries a Walther PPK/S with white grips during the first two seasons. Hunter describes it as a "police issue .38", possibly suggesting that McCall's PPK/S is chambered in .380 ACP.
LAPD Det. Bernie Terwilliger (James Whitmore Jr.) keeps a first generation Colt Detective Special holstered on his belt. In "Hard Contract" (1.02), a thief (Ezekiel Moss) flashes a Detective Special (an S&W Model 10 Snub in the next shot) to a hot dog vendor. In "Legacy" (1.05), mobster Billy Vincent (Kip Gilman) accosts McCall and kidnaps Sandy Newton with a suppressed Detective Special. In "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06), Benny (Robert Costanzo) holds his Detective Special (an S&W Model 10 Snub in the previous shot) on Hunter and McCall but McCall (Stepfanie Kramer) takes it away from him and carries it during the scene.
Benny (Robert Costanzo) reaches for a Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose when Hunter and McCall enter his shop in "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06), but it turns into a Colt Detective Special in the next shot. In the same episode, the Mexican drug smuggler (Gary Cervantes) who meets with Deakin has a Model 10 holstered, as does one of his thugs.
Brian Carmichael (Ron Karabatsos), keeps a Double Barreled Shotgun behind his bar, the Irish Rose, in "Hard Contract" (1.02). Several posse members carry Double Barreled Shotguns while searching for Wally in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In the same episode, Sheriff Cutter has one on his gun rack. A bank robber named David Blackfoot, or "The Chief", uses one to defend himself while hiding out in "Dead or Alive" (1.08).
Policeman-turned-hitman Gus Trancus (David Ackroyd) has a dismantled Remington Model 30 on his rented office desk when Hunter and McCall pay him an unexpected visit in "Hard Contract" (1.02).
Policeman-turned-hitman Gus Trancus (David Ackroyd) carries a 6"-barreled Colt Python as his sidearm, using it to wound McCall in "Hard Contract" (1.02).
Private investigator Manny Roth (Ray Girardin) has a Smith & Wesson Model 10 in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03), using it during the shootout with Crenshaw, Hunter, and McCall in the warehouse.
Sgt. Hunter (Fred Dryer) keeps a Detonics Pocket 9 as his backup pistol, handing it to a policeman when he is arrested in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03). In "Pen Pals" (1.07), a hitman named Carbone takes the Detonics from Hunter's apartment, murders a drug pusher named Rosco, and frames Hunter for the murder.
Los Angeles Police Commissioner Larry Crenshaw (William Windom) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 66 in "The Hot Grounder" (1.03). A Coronado Springs, Texas sheriff named Jake Cutter (Bo Svenson) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 66 in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In this episode, it often alternates between a Model 66 and Model 67.
Coronado Springs, Texas Sheriff Jake Cutter (Bo Svenson) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 67 in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04). In a continuity error, this often switches between a Model 67 and a Model 66.
After Hunter and McCall pick up Wally in "A Long Way From L.A." (1.04), Sheriff Cutter (Bo Svenson) shoots at them with his Winchester Model 70, which he had previously stated was the .30-06 rifle stolen by Wally for his escape. Hunter (Fred Dryer) fires a shot from it into a barrel, extracting the bullet to prove that Cutter's rifle had killed Wally.
After the killing of mobster John Vincent in "Legacy" (1.05), Det. Terwilliger (James Whitmore Jr.) shows Hunter and McCall the evidence bag with the murder weapon, a M1911A1 in it, prompting Hunter to tell him to "never pointed a loaded bag" at someone. Hunter then asks how many bullets are remaining in the "clip" (meaning magazine), and Terwilliger tells him four. McCall then interjects that the "clip" (again, meaning magazine) holds eight. It's possible that this 1911 variant has an eight-round magazine loaded into it, or the episode's writers simply made a mistake. One of Deakin's henchmen in "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06) also has a 1911. A hand is seen loading an M1911A1 during the fifth season opening credits.
Deakin (Anthony Charnota), the drug smuggler, carries a blued Ruger Security Six during "Flight on a Dead Pigeon" (1.06). The "cowboy" bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) carries a stainless Security Six in "Dead or Alive" (1.08).
A customized Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy" with a large lever loop is used by the bounty hunter Jimmy Joe Walker (Wings Hauser) in the opening scenes of "Dead or Alive" (1.08).
LAPD Sgt. Rick Hunter (Fred Dryer) uses a .357 Magnum Desert Eagle during some episodes of the first season, beginning with "Dead or Alive" (1.08). The Desert Eagle is explained to be a gift from his Mafia father at his graduation, causing McCall to lament that all she received was a set of encyclopedias.
Hunter uses a Beretta 92FS during seasons five, six, and seven. Sgt. Chris Novak (Lauren Lane) also carried one during her appearance of the last half of the seventh season.
