'''''Payback''''' is a 1999 thriller starring [[Mel Gibson]] as Porter, a thief who is double-crossed and left for dead by both his wife and his partner in crime. After surviving the incident, Porter decides to go after them and get the money he's owed. The film is an adaptation of Richard Stark's novel ''The Hunter'', and the novel's main character was also adapted into the 1967 [[Lee Marvin]] film ''[[Point Blank (1967)|Point Blank]]'', the 1992 [[Chow Yun-Fat]] film ''[[Full Contact]]'' as well as the 2013 [[Jason Statham]] film ''[[Parker]]''.
 
Unsatisfied with the original tone of the film as well as the ending, Gibson decided to reshoot several sequences and add several characters to the film before its initial theatrical release in 1999. In 2006, Brian Helgeland, the original writer/director of the film, was allowed to go back and restore his original vision for the film, which subsequently was released on DVD as "Payback Straight Up: The Director's Cut". Most of the screencaps for this page are from the Director's Cut.

==Smith & Wesson Model 29==
==Smith & Wesson Model 29==
Porter ([[Mel Gibson]]) uses a blued [[Smith & Wesson Model 29]] 4" with S&W factory combat grips for the majority of the film after buying it in a pawn shop. It is not a [[Smith & Wesson Model 27]] as previously mentioned, as the diameter of the muzzle and cylinder chambers is clearly too large to be .357 Magnum. Also the barrel on the Model 27 has a slight taper while the barrel on the M29 is a heavy "bull" barrel. In addition the forcing cone on the Model 27 is visible and the cylinder is shorter on the Model 27. The cylinder on the Model 29 fills the frame. Like the one used in the movie.In addition the Model 27 has very fine checkering on the top strap. Observe the stills that show the top strap on the revolver being used by Mel Gibson. It's smooth which is another feature of the Model 29.See the discussion page for comparisons. '''''There are clearly two different S&W revolvers used. One is a S&W model 29 and the other is a S&W model 27/28.  In the pictures of Porter firing the revolver and the Beretta and again pointing at Lucy Liu, you can clearly see the barrel taper of a 27/28. While the gun may switch between the 29 and 27/28 in the same scene, there is definitely a 27/28 used.'''''
Porter ([[Mel Gibson]]) uses a blued [[Smith & Wesson Model 29|Smith & Wesson Model 29-2]] 4" with S&W factory combat grips (refinished by Peter Orr) for the majority of the film after buying it in a pawn shop. The weapon here can be identified as an actual large-caliber .44 Magnum N-frame Model 29 due to the heavy non-tapered 'bull' barrel and full-length cylinder (The cylinder fills the entire gap). A different .357 Magnum N-frame S&W revolver was also used in some parts, noted in the Model 28 section below, but the Model 29 was also definitely used. '''See the [[Talk:Payback|Discussion]] page for comparisons and additional information.'''

The use of the Model 29 in this film is likely a tribute to ''[[Point Blank (1967)|Point Blank]]'', in which [[Lee Marvin]] used a nearly identical weapon. The Model 29 from this movie was sold when the Stembridge Gun Rentals inventory was auctioned off in 1999, and [https://www.icollector.com/item.aspx?i=27408650 later re-sold] by Little John's Auction Service in 2007.

Though Porter does purchase and use the above Model 29, the [[Smith & Wesson Model 28]] is seen standing in for it in some places, sometimes being switched in the same scenes. It can be differentiated from the Model 29 due to its tapered barrel and (if examined closely) shorter .357 cylinder in some shots. The gun can be identified specifically as a Model 28 'Highway Patrolman' rather than the almost identical, but much finer Model 27 due to its slightly duller finish and smooth, non-checkered topstrap.

Payback is a 1999 thriller starring Mel Gibson as Porter, a thief who is double-crossed and left for dead by both his wife and his partner in crime. After surviving the incident, Porter decides to go after them and get the money he's owed. The film is an adaptation of Richard Stark's novel The Hunter, and the novel's main character was also adapted into the 1967 Lee Marvin film Point Blank, the 1992 Chow Yun-Fat film Full Contact as well as the 2013 Jason Statham film Parker.

Unsatisfied with the original tone of the film as well as the ending, Gibson decided to reshoot several sequences and add several characters to the film before its initial theatrical release in 1999. In 2006, Brian Helgeland, the original writer/director of the film, was allowed to go back and restore his original vision for the film, which subsequently was released on DVD as "Payback Straight Up: The Director's Cut". Most of the screencaps for this page are from the Director's Cut.


The following weapons were used in the film Payback:


Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!


Revolvers

Smith & Wesson Model 29

Porter (Mel Gibson) uses a blued Smith & Wesson Model 29-2 4" with S&W factory combat grips (refinished by Peter Orr) for the majority of the film after buying it in a pawn shop. The weapon here can be identified as an actual large-caliber .44 Magnum N-frame Model 29 due to the heavy non-tapered 'bull' barrel and full-length cylinder (The cylinder fills the entire gap). A different .357 Magnum N-frame S&W revolver was also used in some parts, noted in the Model 28 section below, but the Model 29 was also definitely used. See the Discussion page for comparisons and additional information.

The use of the Model 29 in this film is likely a tribute to Point Blank, in which Lee Marvin used a nearly identical weapon. The Model 29 from this movie was sold when the Stembridge Gun Rentals inventory was auctioned off in 1999, and later re-sold by Little John's Auction Service in 2007.

The pawn shop owner hands Porter a Smith & Wesson Model 29 from off the rack. His lack of gun safety is pretty obvious as he hands him the gun with the hammer cocked and his finger on the trigger.

Left: Porter swings open the cylinder and spins it. A ratcheting sound effect is heard even though there is nothing for the cylinder to ratchet against.
Right: Porter examines the barrel. Note the smooth topstrap and bull barrel. Both consistent with a Model 29.

After doing some flashy twirling, Porter hands the shop owner the Model 29 back to make a purchase. Without a background check it is doubtful he would have actually made the purchase. For some reason he isn't shown buying cartridges either...

Porter uses a pillow to muffle the gunshot as he executes Val (Gregg Henry). This is movie fiction, as a pillow would not properly suppress a handgun, especially a revolver. It is also pointless since three rounds are fired before this. It is possible, however, that he could have simply used the pillow to deflect the bloodspray caused by a close-range headshot.

Arthur Stegman (David Paymer) holds a Model 29 on Porter in the back of a Taxi cab before he takes it from him.

Porter fires the two guns through the floor of the Triad van. You can see he is simply dry-firing the gun as no muzzle flash is seen, likely a safety precaution for firing blanks at such close proximity.

Internal Affairs officers show off Porter's original Smith & Wesson Model 29 to Det. Hicks (Bill Duke) and Det. Leary (Jack Conley) after Porter left the gun (covered with their fingerprints) at the scene of Val's murder, along with one of their badges.

Smith & Wesson Model 28

Though Porter does purchase and use the above Model 29, the Smith & Wesson Model 28 is seen standing in for it in some places, sometimes being switched in the same scenes. It can be differentiated from the Model 29 due to its tapered barrel and (if examined closely) shorter .357 cylinder in some shots. The gun can be identified specifically as a Model 28 'Highway Patrolman' rather than the almost identical, but much finer Model 27 due to its slightly duller finish and smooth, non-checkered topstrap.

The gun clicks empty. That's the inconvenience of movie guns, they can fire off a ridiculous amount of ammunition but never have a bullet left when you really need it. The smooth, non-checkered topstrap (Similar to the aforementioned Model 29) is also more clearly visible in this shot.

Colt Python

Lynn Porter (Deborah Kara Unger) uses a stainless Colt Python to shoot Porter (Mel Gibson) in the back after she and Val Resnick (Gregg Henry) decide to take the Triad's stolen money for themselves.

SIG-Sauer P220

Chow's bodyguard (Jeff Imada) is seen firing a SIG-Sauer P220 through the floor of the van at Porter (Mel Gibson). Earlier in the film Porter is seen taking a SIG P220 from one of Carter's (William Devane) guards after knocking him out with a roll of pennies and then using it to kill him. They are noted as P220 models by their lack of double stack bulges on the frame, and their .45-sized muzzle diameters.

Radioman (Kwame Amoaku) tries to save Arthur Stegman (David Paymer) with a Remington 870 'Witness Protection' shorty shotgun before being mowed down by the Triads. It can be noted as a Witness Protection variant due to the large rounded base of the sawed-down-looking pistol grip and small blade sight on the short barrel.
