Guns that you associate with TV/Movies

I bought my first two pistols because of movies. An 8 3/8 Model 29 and a Beretta 92. In a recent thread, it was mentioned by a poster that he bought a P9S because of Rick Hunter (to which I also associate with the SPAS-12).

What do you associate with movies and TV?

I think Josh Randall, Steve McQueen, carried a Colt Mare's Leg in Wanted Dead or Aluve.

Thank you for clarifying.
It seems there's often mention of AC556 in A-Team related threads --> I didn't realize until this morning that AC-556 was derived directly from Mini-14.

One of my favorite Mel Gibson movies is Attack Force Z in which he carries a suppressed M3A1.

Pale Rider
Remington 1858 New Army with several pre-loaded cylinders.

The Winchester Model 1892 of Lucas McCain (Chuck Connors)in the Rifleman.

The Finnish Jatimatic SMG used by Sylvester Stallone in Cobra. I remember having to look it up during the movie. I watched the movie this past Thursday and had to look it up again because I forgot what it was.

Same for me with the 629-"the most powerful handgun in the world".

Guilty.

Mine isn't all 'blingy' like those of the A-Team, but at least I have a factory side folder on it.
