What Gun Should James Bond Carry?


Recommended Posts

He already has a back up gun. He usually pulls it out after all the bad guys are already toast. If you've seen many Bond movies you know what I'm talking about.

But seriously, he should carry Scaramanga's "Golden Gun" as a back up/trophy piece.

Should be something British or at the very least, European.

I believe there was a scene in one of the Pierce Brosnan movies (Diamonds are Forever?)

in which he was cleaning his gun when a firefight broke out.

It turned out to be a holographic training exercise.

If I remember correctly, the gun appeared to be a Sig or possibly and H&K.

It seemed to fit him well and looked very natural in his hand.

I'll go with Sig

I love the rooftop gun battle at Palmyra (Largo's place) in Thunderball where he is taking 20 yard + stronghand only shots in semi-dark with that little PPK and the recipients go down like they were hit with a "brick through a plate glass window" ;-)

yeah, I'll stick with the 228/226 for a NEW official JB gun. It's a realistic choice in todays world.

Not a fan of the gun but the P7M8 is just odd enough to take him into the next generation of movies. The gun shoots great, is reliable like the sun, accurate and everything else you want, but is as ugly as they get.....

007 with a Glock? Next thing you know they will have him driving a FORD. Oh wait wasn't one of the cars a FORD he was driving in Casino Royal? Darn what is the world of James Bond coming too. At least the ladies are still exotic. I also would favor the HK P7M8. I carried a PSP version for many years and it was about as perfect a carry gun as I have ever owned.

What is the standard sidearm for the British military?

After all, he is a Commander in the Royal Navy.

The Walther was certainly his signature weapon.

I'm sure it was considered "exotic" when Iam Fleming wrote "Goldfinger" or "Thunderball".

Now, raise your hand if you would like to face down the bad guys with a .25 or even a PPK.

Maybe it's time to bring Bond into the 21st century.

Even 007 cool has its limits.
