RE: James Bond’s Gun
[updated:LAST EDITED ON 31-08-02 AT 03:33 AM (GMT)]In the later Brosnan episodes he has been carrying an updated Walther. In 9mm versus the .32inch of the PPK. The exact designation escapes me just now.
Bond has been seen to carry a couple of variations of the Walther:
Dr. No – PPK (actually it turned out to be a PP after the scene in which Q issued the PPK, and stayed a PP thereafter in the film). “From Russia With Love” showed Bond with a PPK throughout as Ian Fleming meant him to do! I love the girl-fight sequence which ended in a gunfight showing Bond using the PPK to good effect.
Octopussy (can never get over that title!) – Walther P5 (9mm)
Living Daylights – a Walther sniper rifle.
