Arnold used a P90 in True Lies. And of course the Mini 14 was featured in the A team and Death Wish 4.

In the movie Carlito's Way the NYPD officers on the subway had holstered Ruger Sixes. They are square butt so are either Security or Service Six with a 4 inch barrel

Revolvers--- I needed some help from the internet to complete the set. I can think of more but cant think of another Single Six which surprises me. I think the GP100 and the Speed six were probably in more syndicated shows because of the era of action movies and policing series when it comes to the Ruger revolver line. It would be an interesting study.

Wow Gene,
You sure know your movies & can spot a Ruger!
Very cool. I have seen a couple that you mentioned.

Cheers,
JAY

Like I said Jay I needed internet assistance, I can recall many of the action, policing movies but there are literally hundreds of movies with Ruger automatics and revolvers in them as well as rifles. I have watched many pirated movies as well as recorded on external hard drives passed on from Soldier to Soldier while overseas on my laptop. Traveling on planes, trains and ships through the desert, mountains and inner cities from one third world country to the next moving from one mission to another. You can only carry so many books and in a duffel bag.


Here's a great link on Ruger and all gun manufacturers in Movies and TV series.

On Swamp People one of the gator hunters was using a Ruger 96 lever action. It looked like it had been kept in a manure pile & dragged behind a vehicle
