Cowboy Bebop the Movie: Knockin' on Heaven's Door (2001) (2001)



The following weapons were used in the anime film Cowboy Bebop the Movie: Knockin' on Heaven's Door:







Jericho 941 R

Spike Spiegel's signature pistol is an IMI Jericho 941 R, with the original "JERICHO 941" stamping and custom grips. Basically, don't call it a Baby Eagle, it's a Jericho, moreover, Spike's Jericho. He uses it throughout the film, most notably in the opening scene in the convenience store, and in the battles with Vincent Volaju.

A good shot of Spike's Jericho 941 after taking down the robber. This is probably the best shot of the gun in the entire movie, as well as the series.

Yet another shot of Spike aiming his Jericho 941 at Vincent on the train. Note that in this and the previous shot, the barrel has rifling grooves, even though the Jericho is notorious for having polygonal rifling in its barrel. Many later model 941s used a standard rifled barrel due to the designs universal popularity. Same reason the .41 AE caliber was phased out.

Spike runs out of ammunition after firing at Vincent. The primer appears to be missing from the casing.

Walther P99

Jet Black's signature pistol is a Walther P99. He drops it after the robber takes the old woman hostage.

Smith & Wesson Model 39-2

At the beginning of the film, three of the four convenience store robbers all pack Smith & Wesson Model 39-2's, distinguished by their slim frame, First Generation sights, long extractors and holed hammers.

Smith & Wesson Model 39-2 - 9x19mm

The robber points out with his Smith & Wesson Model 39-2 that the security company that monitors the store was once his employer, but he was laid off and had to turn to a life of thievery.

Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911

Vincent Volaju carries a Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911 throughout the film. In the train scene, Vincent fires his gun at least 20 times before running out, which is incorrect for the capacity of the .45 ACP model it is chambered in, evidenced by the writing on the shells ejecting from the gun, however, if the animators had gone with .40 S&W or 10mm Auto, this would not be an issue.

Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911 - .45 ACP

Vincent shows the security guard his "license".

Another shot of Vincent firing his Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911 at Spike on the train.

Vincent aims his Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911 tilted just a bit sideways at Spike after reloading. This is probably the best shot of it in the movie.

Vincent holds his Strayer Voigt Infinity 1911 on Spike.

To dissuade any arguments, the shell ejecting from Vincent Volaju's gun is clearly labeled .45 ACP.

Glock 30

Faye Valentine carries a Glock 30 as her weapon of choice.

Glock 26 (fictional gun)

A fictional gun roughly based on the Glock 26 is used by Electra Ovilo in the movie. It also seems to have a slide-mounted safety, like a Smith & Wesson automatic. Later on, Spike and Electra use variants fitted with combination compensators/lights.

G21 Assault Rifle (fictional gun)

Cherious Medical security guards are armed with fictional "G21 Assault Rifles". Though the previous author stated that they were Heckler & Koch G11s, there is little resemblance between the guns.

Single Action Army

A 7.5 inch barreled Single Action Army with a nickel finish can also be seen in the Spaghetti Western, as well as the usual caricature icon for Big Shots. Punch and Judy appear to be wearing prop SAAs.

Big Shots apparently got a bigger budget just before cancellation. apparently got a bigger budget just before cancellation.

Lewis Gun

A Lewis gun is mounted on one of the planes near the end of the film. The aircraft is actually a Fairey Swordfish, a model famous for its part in sinking the German battleship Bismark in World War 2. This is a nod to Spike's spacecraft, which is called the "Swordfish II".

M67 Hand Grenade

During the battle aboard the train, Vincent Volaju produces an M67 hand grenade and detonates it, severely damaging the train. Spike, Electra, and Vincent all somehow manage to survive despite having been in the same passenger car when the grenade went off.
