The following firearms can be seen in Rolling Thunder (1977):

Rolling Thunder is a classic 1970's revenge flick and one of Tommy Lee Jones first major roles. Sometimes referred to as a "Grindhouse" movie thought it actually had more effort put into it than many of the Grindhouse films from the 1970's. Though a cult classic and a favorite of director Quentin Tarantino it has yet to be released on DVD in the United States. As a result the screencaps are not of a very high quality. They were taken off of the VHS copy. Which was released in 1983. Hopefully there will be a DVD copy one day and the screencaps can be replaced. Nevertheless Rolling Thunder should have it's own page.
