Beverly Hills Cop II is the 1987 sequel to Beverly Hills Cop. The film finds Axel Foley (Eddie Murphy) returning to Beverly Hills to help find out who was responsible for the shooting of a close friend. The film was directed by Tony Scott. Murphy would return as Axel Foley in 1994's Beverly Hills Cop III.
The following weapons were used in the film Beverly Hills Cop II:
An AMC .44 AutoMag is used by one of the robbery crew during the Adriano's jewelry heist at the beginning of the film. One of the plot points is that .44 Automag rounds are too expensive to make, so a .308 cartridge is cut down to fit the Automag. The Automag is also used by one of Charles Kane's men to take out Axel at the 385 North Club.
A blank-firing Beretta 92F fitted with a laser sight is seen being used by Axel and Karla at the Beverly Hills Gun Club.
Axel is unimpressed with the blank firing weapon and decides to open fire on the screens with his Browning Hi-Power.
After the shootout at the club, Det. Billy Rosewood (Judge Reinhold) decides to switch his sidearm to a Smith & Wesson Model 29 with an 8 3/8 inch barrel as a sidearm later in the film.
While at the gun club, Karla Fry (Brigitte Nielsen) is seen firing on the range what appears to be a Colt Trooper Mk III with a 6" barrel that has been fitted with a laser sight.
The Remington 870 shotgun with a pistol grip is a weapon used by Charles Kane (Dean Stockwell) as part of the robbery crew at the racetrack. This appears to be a continuity error as he was holding a Mossberg earlier.
Charles Kane (Dean Stockwell) uses a Mossberg 500 Cruiser during the race track heist. In some scenes, the shotgun appears to be a Remington 870. Detective Billy Rosewood decides to use two Mossberg 500 Cruisers for the final shootout.
At the Beverly Hills Gun Club, a shooter is seen using what appears to be a Ruger Mini-14 that's been fitted with a laser sight underneath the barrel. This is a Laser Products Corporation (later Surefire) laser sight similar to ones used in The Terminator and Wanted: Dead Or Alive. This laser sight is easily distinguished by the proprietary LPC "clamp" as well as the actual sight's "bell-shaped" end.
One of the hitmen who try to take out Axel at the club Thomopolis's men is seen firing an Heckler & Koch HK94 out the backwindow of a car. Some of Thomopolis' men use Heckler & Koch HK94s during the final shootout. It has been modified with a ventilated barrel shroud and a vertical foregrip. It looks similar to the version used by Arnold Schwarzenegger in the film Raw Deal.
Axel discovers that Billy hangs a variety of handguns on his bedroom door: a Smith & Wesson Model 36 with white grips, a Colt Trooper with an early laser sight (note the battery pack on bottom of the grip), a Browning Hi-Power, an AMC Automag, and a Colt Python with pachmayr grips (as well as a few others that are out of view).
