After losing his Glock at the bar, Mosley returns to his sister's apartment and retrieves a stainless [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]] revolver from the closet. He then uses it as a backup weapon throughout the film after taking another Glock from one of the corrupt cops pursuing him. Eddie uses it briefly when he sneaks up on Nugent from behind, holding him at gunpoint with it while Mosley handcuffs him. These were (and may still be) authorized as back-up and off-duty guns for NYPD officers. The model used in the film is fitted with black grips as opposed to the standard wooden ones.

16 Blocks (2006)


Glock

One of the most prominent weapons in the film is the Glock 17 pistol, shown as the standard sidearm of New York City Police officers, including Det. Jack Mosley (Bruce Willis) and Det. Frank Nugent (David Morse). Some can also be seen equipped with tactical flashlights being used by NYPD ESU officers during the apartment raid at the beginning of the film and during the bus standoff later on. The pistols switch between 2nd and 3rd-generation models several times during the film. Also, during a scene in a bar, the Glock 17 Mosley is forced to fire briefly turns into a Glock 19.

Remington Spartan

During the encounter with Detective Frank Nugent at the bar, Mosley takes a Remington Spartan 12 gauge double-barreled shotgun with a sawed-off stock & barrels from behind the counter and uses it to shoot one of the corrupt officers, then hold off the others while he and Eddie make their escape, dumping it in a trash can outside. When asked why he discarded the weapon, Mosley replied that the shells in it were over 20 years old and that it was luck that it fired at all. Originally, the Remington Spartan line of entry level shotguns was produced by Baikal, a Russian manufacturer.
