.45 Luger in the Movies...

[Johnny C. Kitchens]

Here is an unusual movie to find a Luger, especially the .45. The movie "Wall Street". Here is an excerpt from it, as well as an explanation of the scene to some extent...

In the film Wall Street, inside-trader Gordon Gekko (portrayed by Michael Douglas) enjoyed a display of power when he attempted to impress his arch-rival Sir Lawrence Wildman (portrayed by Terence Stamp) with his gun collection.[2] Mr. Gekko reached into a glass case, removed a handgun, and proclaimed, "The rarest pistol in the world, Larry-the .45 Luger. Only six of them were ever manufactured."[3] Michael Zomber of Culver City, California, owns the .45 Luger used in the movie, personally valued in excess of $1,000,000.[4] Although he receives many offers for the gun, Mr. Zomber claims the Luger is not for sale.[5]
