Point Break (1991)

The following weapons were used in Point Break:


SIG-Sauer P226

FBI Special Agent Johnny Utah (Keanu Reeves) carries a 9x19mm SIG-Sauer P226 as his FBI-issued sidearm throughout the movie. At the time Point Break was filmed, the P226 and the more compact SIG-Sauer P228 were just coming into service as the new FBI-issue sidearms, after the 10mm Smith & Wesson 1076 proved to be too unwieldy for the Bureau's purposes. In one of the film's most memorable scenes, Utah rolls onto his back and empties his P226 into the air after he is unwilling to shoot Bodhi (Patrick Swayze) and lets him escape.

Unwilling to shoot Bodhi, Utah rolls onto his back and fires his P226 into the air in anger. In this shot, it's possible to see that the exposed top of the P226's barrel has been filed down (a modification made for the pistol to cycle blanks).

Utah reaches for his P226 when Bodhi and his gang show up at his house.


Freedom Arms Model 83

Bodhi (Patrick Swayze) carries a Freedom Arms Model 83 single-action revolver in .454 Casull as his weapon of choice in the film. At the time this film was released, this was the most powerful production revolver available.

In the movie's patently absurd climax, Johnny Utah jumps out of an airborne plane with no parachute, catches Bodhi while he's skydiving down to the desert below (similar to the opening of Moonraker), and holds his own revolver on him.(NOTE: Mythbusters did a show on this. It Would have been possible for Utah to catch Bodhi from the plane with the time alotted. They actually timed it and tried it, with parachutes of course.-DR.GONZO)


Charter Arms Undercover

Agent Angelo Pappas (Gary Busey) carries an older-model 2" Charter Arms Undercover in .38 Special as his sidearm throughout the movie. It is seen most notably in the climax. An unlikely choice for an FBI Agent. I seriously doubt that it was on the "approved carry list".

Mossberg 590

In both the beginning and final robberies, Bodhi's gang is seen using at least one Mossberg 590 shotgun with an extended tube. Bodhi himself briefly handles this weapon in the climax at the airfield.

Smith & Wesson 6906

The off-duty cop (Anthony Mangano) in the bank carries an older-model Smith & Wesson 6906 with a squared trigger guard. It should be noted the officer hits every robber in sight, and if he hadn't needed to reload may well have thwarted the entire heist!

When Johnny Utah is forced by Bodhi's gang to accompany them on their final bank robbery, Bodhi gives him a sawed-off Ithaca 37 shotgun after ejecting all of the shells from it.

IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII

A Desert Eagle Mark VII is used by one of the surfer/heroin dealers during the FBI raid on their house. It appears to be the .44 Magnum version, judging by the bore.

Beretta 92FS

The other FBI agents in the movie, including Alvarez (Julian Reyes), all carry the Beretta 92FS as their sidearms. This is inaccurate, since the FBI has never issued or authorized the Beretta for its agents in real life, and the SIG-Sauer P226 and P228 were the FBI-issue sidearms at the time.
