Friday Foster is a 1975 Blaxploitation film based on a Chicago Tribune comic that was directed by Arthur Marks. It stars Pam Grier as the titular Friday Foster, a (surprisingly so for a Pam Grier movie made in the 1970s) mild-mannered photographer who, on assignment on New Year’s Eve, discovers a plot set up by a black senator to kill Blake Tarr, the wealthiest black man in America.

Yaphet Kotto, Carl Weathers and Scatman Crothers co-star in one of Grier's last classic Blaxploitation roles.

The Following weapons appear in Friday Foster


Mauser C96

During the planning of Blake Tarr's assassination, Yarbro (Carl Weathers) carries a bag full of Mauser C96s which he passes out to the other conspirators. In true Hollywood fashion, the killers fire off almost twenty rounds each despite only loading two-or-three rounds beforehand.

Star Model B

Colt Hawkins (Yaphet Kotto) carries a nickel-plated Star Model B with wood grips meant to impersonate a nickel Colt 1911. He draws it only twice in the film, both times the camera angle make it easy to identify as a Star. During the assault on Senator Hart's assembly of black leaders, Friday (Pam Grier) grabs and fires a blued Star once before dropping it in shock over killing a man.
