Pistols

Astra A-100

Ghost Dog (Forest Whitaker) uses an Astra A-100 9mm with a laser sight and suppressor as his main sidearm. You can see it best when he gets the drop on his boss Louie (John Tormey).

Ruger MK II

Ghost Dog's other pistol is a suppressed Ruger Mk II. There's a great look at the threads for the suppressor and the home-made suppressor itself in a scene where Ghost Dog is cleaning the weapon and the suppressor, but my screen caps got messed up. You can see the gun pretty clearly in the images below, though.

Flashpaper Beretta Inox

In the flashback where Ghost Dog and Louie meet, Louie fires what appears to be a flashpaper firing Beretta Inox Non-Gun replica (note how the barrel is lower than that of a regular Beretta 92F).

Taurus PT92/100

Louie's gun for the rest of the film is a stainless Taurus PT100. In the last scene the barrel markings on the left side read ".40 caliber," and the gun has a frame-mounted safety.

The 1911 goon is the second to be killed by Ghost Dog during the mansion assault. Ghost Dog's eyes appear to be closed, but with Forest Whitaker it's sometimes hard to tell, he may just be squinting.

Bruni ME-8 Police (Walther PPK Stand-In)

Handsome Frank's weapon during the first assassination scene is a Bruni ME-8 Police, a 8mm blank-fire replica of the Walther PPK.

Rifles / Carbines

Ruger Mini-14 GB-F

Ghost Dog retrieves a Ruger Mini-14 with a folding stock from under his floorboards after the mobsters kill his pigeons. Like his other weapons, he fits it with a homemade suppressor. He is about to snipe Mr. Vargo (Henry Silva) outside his mansion with this rifle when his shot is disrupted by a finch landing on the suppressor and blocking his view through the scope.
