Argo is a 2012 thriller directed by and starring Ben Affleck. The film is based on the recently declassified story of CIA exfiltration specialist Tony Mendez (portrayed by Affleck in the film), who in 1979 devised a daring plan for six American diplomats to escape Iran during the Iranian Hostage Crisis by posing as a Canadian film crew scouting locations for a fictional sci-fi epic. The film's cast includes John Goodman, Bryan Cranston, and Alan Arkin.

The following weapons were used in the film Argo:


Handguns

Walther P38

When the U.S. Embassy in Tehran is seized by Iranian demonstrators on November 4, 1979, a Walther P38 is used by one of the demonstrators to force an American diplomat to open the doors to the main building.
