    Die Hard (1988) Beretta 92FS

    1. Slideshow Image

    Die Hard (1988)
    Bruce Willis as John McClane
    Beretta 92FS - 9mm

    This Beretta was the signature sidearm of police officer John McClane 
during the hostage holdup of the Nakatomi Plaza in the 1988 film Die Hard. 
Often called "The best action movie of all time," the success of the film gained 
popularity for the Beretta 92, and that same model remained Bruce Willis' sidearm 
throughout much of the Die Hard series. It was also used by Mel Gibson in Lethal Weapon.
