Windtalkers John Woo and stars Nicolas Cage and Christian Slater as two USMC sergeants assigned to protect two Marines of Navajo descent (Adam Beach and Roger Willie ) who serve as code talkers during the Battle of Saipan in the Pacific. The cast also included Peter Stormare , Noah Emmerich , Mark Ruffalo , and Jason Isaacs .
The following weapons were used in the film Windtalkers :
Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
US Army Weapons Handguns Colt M1911A1 Both Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) and Sgt. Pete "Ox" Henderson (Christian Slater ) use Colt M1911A1 pistols as their sidearms. One of the mistakes is that the M1911A1 usually have four magazines as extra ammo, not two like in the film.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Colt M1911A1 - .45 ACP Error creating thumbnail: File missing Enders primes a satchel charge while holding his M1911A1. If he had any plan to use the pistol, he'd cock the hammer and put it in his right hand. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Enders packs his M1911A1 in Yahzee's back when he disguises himself as a Japanese soldier to steal a radio. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ox fires his M1911A1 after being stabbed by a bayonet. Note Christian Slater flinches terribly in this scene. Error creating thumbnail: File missing "I can't let them take us" - Ox prepares to kill Whitehorse when the Japanese overwhelm them.Error creating thumbnail: File missing Instead of killing Whitehorse, Ox whips him around and fires his M1911A1 some more. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Charlie Whitehorse (Roger Willie ), eyes closed, picks up Ox's M1911A1 and fires it when a Katana-wielding Japanese officer decapitates Ox. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A close-up of Ox's M1911A1 when Yahzee picks it up and threatens to kill Enders. Note the milling on the ejection port, one of the procedures done to convert a real gun to fire blanks. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Enders reloads his M1911A1 during the final battle. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee forces Enders to turn his M1911A1 on him. Submachine Guns M1928 Thompson Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) uses an M1928 Thompson fitted with a 50-round drum magazine during the opening battle in the swamps of Guadalcanal.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Screen-used M1928 Thompson - .45 ACP. This is a hero gun used by Nicolas Cage in the film. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Joe Enders kills a Japanese soldier in the brush with his M1928 Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) fires his M1928 Thompson at the Japanese soldiers. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Enders with his Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Enders tries to help Bill over a log during the opening battle. M1928A1 Thompson For the rest of the film, Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) uses an M1928A1 Thompson fitted with a 30-round magazine. Sgt. Pete "Ox" Henderson (Christian Slater ) also uses an M1928A1.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1928A1 Thompson - .45 ACP Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) lets loose his M1928A1 Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Enders reloads his Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Pete "Ox" Henderson (Christian Slater ) fires his Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Enders with his Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Ox with his Thompson. This shot is clearly reversed since Christian Slater is right-handed and the ejection port is on the right side. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Ox fires his Thompson at the Japanese soldiers. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Another shot of Ox firing his Thompson. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Enders takes out three Japanese soldiers with his Thompson, firing it with one hand. In real life, the recoil of the Thompson would make it nearly impossible to accomplish this feat without completely missing, injuring yourself, or both. Shotguns Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun" Gunnery Sergeant Richard "Gunny" Hjelmstad (Peter Stormare ) uses a Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun" as his weapon in the film, although he is never seen firing it. In the "Director's Cut", Hjelmstad uses the shotgun during the surprise Japanese attack on the village.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Winchester Model 1897 "Trench Gun" - 12 Gauge Error creating thumbnail: File missing A nice shot of the barrel of "Gunny" Hjelmstad's Winchester Model 1897. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Richard "Gunny" Hjelmstad (Peter Stormare ) with his Winchester Model 1897. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Hjelmstad with his Winchester Model 1897 while taking cover from friendly artillery. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Hjelmstad pumps his Winchester Model 1897. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Hjelmstad with his Winchester Model 1897 slung over his back. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Hjelmstad gets shot by a Japanese gunner. Rifles / Carbines M1 Carbine Both Private Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach ) and Private Charlie Whitehorse (Roger Willie ) use M1 Carbines throughout the film.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1 Carbine - .30 Carbine Error creating thumbnail: File missing Private Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach ) with his M1 Carbine. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Private Charlie Whitehorse (Roger Willie ) carries his M1 Carbine while assaulting the beach. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Whitehorse fires his M1 Carbine. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Corporal Fortino (Billy Morts) fires his M1 Carbine. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee holds his M1 Carbine during a confrontation with a Japanese soldier. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee holds his M1 Carbine as he and a Japanese soldier get into a "Mexican" standoff (inevitable for a John Woo film). Note that the Japanese soldier couldn't fire anyway, given the bolt was still upturned and not locked. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Multiple Marines fire their M1 Carbines and M1 Garands. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee, eyes closed, fires his M1 Carbine. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee fires his M1 Carbine during the final battle. M1 Garand The M1 Garand is the most common weapon of the US Marines. Most notably seen used by Private Milo Pappas (Mark Ruffalo ) and Private Thomas Nellie (Martin Henderson ).
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1 Garand with M1 bayonet - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing Enders' man Tommy with his M1 Garand in Guadalcanal. Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1 Garand - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Milo Pappas (Mark Ruffalo ) with his M1 Garand during the battle of Saipan. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Thomas Nellie (Martin Henderson ) with his M1 Garand. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Nellie with his M1 Garand. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Pappas fires his M1 Garand. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pappas fires his M1. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pappas fires his M1. M1903 Springfield Some of the Marines use M1903 Springfield rifles during the opening battle in Solomon Islands. USMC indeed fought with them in Guadalcanal, while the US Army was issued with M1 Garands . It should also be noted that M1903 rifles were commonly used alongside M1 Carbines and Garands due to M1 Garand shortages and that a number of front line Marine and U.S. Army units were still using M1903s as infantry rifles (in Asia and Europe) up until the end of the World War II due to the shortage of M1 Garands.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1903 Springfield Transitional (pre-WW2) issue - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine with an M1903 Springfield fitted with an M1917 bayonet. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine with an M1903 Springfield. Machine Guns M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle Private Charles "Chick" Clusters (Noah Emmerich ) uses an M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle as his role of the support gunner in the film, although his BAR is firing on the faster auto fire rate and has the bipod removed, suggesting it is used more in the assault rifle role.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Charles "Chick" Clusters (Noah Emmerich ) lets loose his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick fires his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick provides supporting fire with his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick bullies Yahzee for "looking like a Nip". During this scene, a continuity error is present as the bolt on his BAR is seen both locked back and closed. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick fires his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick fires his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A nice side shot of the BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Chick aims his BAR. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Early model M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine on the tank after Whitehorse killing sequence carries an early model BAR. Browning M1919A4 Browning M1919A4 machine guns are seen mounted on M2 tripods, pintle-mounted on US jeeps, in a coaxial mount on M4 Sherman tanks as well as in the hands of the US infantry.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Browning M1919A4 - .30-06 Error creating thumbnail: File missing The M4 Sherman tank has the Browning M1919A4 in a coaxial mount. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Two Marines ready a Browning M1919A4 during the battle of Saipan. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Browning M1919A4 pintle-mounted on a jeep. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine lugs an M1919A4 while another Marine carries the M2 tripod. Based on the way he carries the gun, it is assumed to be a resin prop since a real M1919 is far too heavy to carry by the barrel with the bulk of the gun hanging off the shoulder. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine is seen manning an M1919A4 behind Gny. Sgt. Hjelmstad (Peter Stormare ). Browning M2HB Browning M2HB machine guns are mounted on M4 Sherman tanks.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Browning M2HB - .50 BMG Error creating thumbnail: File missing The M4 Sherman has the Browning M2HB mounted on the hatch. Error creating thumbnail: File missing The Browning M2HB is seen as a Sherman gets hit by Japanese artillery. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A gunner with a Browning M2HB on a Sherman tank. Note how the belt box is an authentic 105-round .50 caliber model, though it appears the label has been erased and repainted. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A gunner gets killed after the tank is destroyed. Others M1A1 Bazooka An M1A1 Bazooka is used by Marines during the battle of Saipan. When two Marines are attempting to take out a bunker with the launcher, the loader is wounded and the gunner is killed, so Sgt. Pete "Ox" Henderson (Christian Slater ) runs out and does a stylish "judo-roll", grabbing the launcher in the process. The wounded loader gets back up and readies the weapon, and Ox takes out the bunker single-handedly. Some other Marines are also seen carrying this weapon.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing M1A1 Bazooka - 2.36 inch Error creating thumbnail: File missing Two Marines attempt to fire an M1A1 Bazooka. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Ox waits as the loader readies the Bazooka. Note the lack of a contact box on top of the tube, showing this to be an A1 model. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Ox aims the Bazooka. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt. Ox fires the Bazooka with his thumb blocking the sight. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Marine lugs a Bazooka. M2-2 Flamethrower Private Andrew Harrigan (Brian Van Holt ) uses an M2-2 Flamethrower as his weapon in the film. True to Hollywood Pvt. Harrigan's M2-2 Flamethrower explodes due to a single shot from an FMJ, engulfing the Private in fire and forcing Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) helps him out of his misery with his pistol. In reality, the fuel inside a flamethrower is often difficult to ignite, which is why built-in magnesium igniters are used. The gas used to pressurize the tanks is also non-flammable. In real life, a hit from an FMJ or lead round would most likely knock the operator off of his feet due to the massive pressure released from the small entrance hole. Although it should be noted that had incendiary ammunition been used there is a chance of an ignition of the tank/operator.
M2-2 Flamethrower Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Andrew Harrigan (Brian Van Holt ) torches a Japanese bunker with his M2-2 Flamethrower. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Harrigan burns a Japanese tank with his M2-2 Flamethrower. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Another shot of Harrigan torching the tank. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Here we see the flamethrower is a rubber prop, since even empty the tank weighs roughly 30lbs and the torch seems to slightly bend. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Harrigan with his flamethrower. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Harrigan's tank ignites when struck by a round, which is extremely unlikely, unless either it is an incendiary round or the tank is made of very weak metal. Unknown Smoke Grenade Marines throw unknown smoke grenades to cover the approach of Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) when he charges a Japanese bunker to throw a satchel charge inside.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Thomas Nellie (Martin Henderson ) about to throw a smoke grenade. Mk 2 Hand Grenade Mk 2 hand grenades are used by the Marines.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Mk 2 hand grenade Error creating thumbnail: File missing Tommy throws an Mk 2 grenade during the opening battle. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Pvt. Milo Pappas (Mark Ruffalo ) pulls the pin of an Mk 2 grenade. Error creating thumbnail: File missing Sgt.

Imperial Japanese Army Weapons Handguns Nambu Type 14 A Japanese soldier tries to draw his Nambu Type 14 from his holster before Pvt. Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach ) stabs him with the Type 30 bayonet of his captured Arisaka Type 99 rifle.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Nambu Type 14 pistol - 8x22mm Nambu Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Japanese soldier tries to pull a Nambu Type 14 pistol from his holster. While much of the gun is not seen, the shape of the magazine base plate confirms it as a Type 14 as opposed to a Type 94 pistol . Rifles Arisaka Sniper Rifle While not closely seen, a Japanese sniper takes out a few Marines with an Arisaka rifle , assumed to be a scoped model to fit the sniper role. But due to John Woo logic, he is no match for Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage ) and a quick hip fire burst from his Thompson.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing Arisaka Type 99 sniper rifle - 7.7x58mm Arisaka Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Japanese sniper takes out Marines with an Arisaka sniper rifle. Arisaka Type 99 The Arisaka Type 99 is the most common weapon of the Imperial Japanese Army. The early models contained a folding wire monopod, flip up sights with "anti-aircraft" bars, chrome-plated bores, and a dust cover. As the war went on, the quality had dropped, these late war rifles were known as "last ditch" rifles and were very crudely manufactured with most missing the accessories of the earlier models.
At one point in the film, Pvt. Ben Yahzee (Adam Beach ) disguises himself as a Japanese soldier to acquire a radio after his destroyed, he also takes a substitute standard ("last ditch") Arisaka Type 99 along with the disguise.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing Yahzee with a "last ditch" Arisaka Type 99 while disguising as a Japanese soldier. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Japanese soldier with his Type 99, this one with the sights flipped up but seems to be missing the "anti-aircraft" lead bars that fold out from the sights. Error creating thumbnail: File missing A Japanese soldier stabs Ox with the Type 30 bayonet of his Type 99.

During the landing on Saipan, Japanese soldiers are seen with a German 7.7cm Feldkanone 96 n. A. While a tad odd to be used by the Japanese, it could be a leftover from the German colonial occupation or as a stand-in for a Type 38 75mm cannon.
Error creating thumbnail: File missing 7.7cm Feldkanone 96 n. A. Error creating thumbnail: File missing An overflight camera shot shows the field gun.
