Sid's gun in japanese restaurant?
Does anybody know what kind of weapon Sid used, when he shot Parker in the Japanese restaurant??? Any help would be much appreciated.

it was a USP a .45 for the military.
shareI only remember him using a Glock of some type, and then a Calico machine pistol. I don't think he used a USP, although I could be wrong.
shareThank you very much,
It was INDEED a Calico machine pistol he used when he popped up from behind the bar and shot Parker in the shoulder. However, the first weapon Sid pulled from his bag was in fact a Heckler and Koch USP pistol(due to the shape of the slide and contour of the trigger guard). It was also the same type of pistol that Parker retrieved from one of the slain officers in the police transport vehicle. Not including the scenes in the japanese restaurant, Sid was armed with a glock pistol for the rest of the movie(i.e. the club, the train, the police truck, and finally the T.V. station and so on). Thanks again for your help.

You might be right about the scene in the restaurant, but I really didn't think Parker took a USP from the dead transport guard. In this movie, Glocks seem to be the standard-issue weapons of the city's police force, so I would have thought it was a Glock.
share After watching the movie again, I paused it on the part right before Parker slides the pistol in his waistband. You can clearly see that the shape of the triggerguard and rear of the slide, clearly indicates that it is a Heckler and Koch USP. Glock triggerguards are 'square' in shape, unlike the oversized one found on the USP(to allow room for gloved operators). This movie sure utilized some neat weapons.

Damn, you really know your stuff!
I run a forum on Yahoo, with a fan base of between 20 and 25. If either of you two are interested, it would be a nice change of pace to have a couple of people who really know their stuff. I hope to see you there.
