Man on Fire (2004)

Man on Fire is a 2004 action thriller starring Denzel Washington as John Creasy, a burnt-out former CIA operative and military officer who takes a job in Mexico guarding Pita Ramos (Dakota Fanning), the nine-year-old daughter of a wealthy businessman. When Pita is kidnapped and he is severely wounded, Creasy is determined to get her back at all costs. The cast also includes Radha Mitchell, Marc Anthony, Rachel Ticotin and Mickey Rourke. The film was directed by Tony Scott and was based on the 1980 novel of the same name written by A. J. Quinnell, which had been previously adapted into a 1987 film starring Scott Glenn. Both Fanning and Washington would reunite nearly 20 years later for the 2023 film The Equalizer 3.
__TOC__
=Pistols=
==Glock 34== 
The Glock 34 in 9x19mm is the sidearm of John Creasy (Denzel Washington), who carries it in a Kydex outside the waistband holster. At one point in the film when Creasy is teaching Pita by her pool, he is seen carrying the pistol in his OWB holster without a shirt covering it like in most other scenes, and on his other side he has a double magazine pouch. It is the weapon with which he unsuccessfully attempts suicide and later uses in the kidnapping scene.
It is interesting to note that Creasy's Glock 34 has a generation 2 frame (no accessory rail, finger grooves, or thumb rest) during the scene where he attempts suicide, but later in the film, it does have the (correct) generation 3 frame, which was the only factory option available from Glock. This is most likely because the slide for the pistol was blank-adapted separately, and the armory had a shortage of third generation frames at the time. The -34 slide will fit and work fine on a 2nd gen frame, though this is not factory standard.
==Glock 17== 
Creasy later carries another Glock, the Glock 17. Used when he kidnaps his first revenge victim, and when he assaults the motorcade and kidnaps the police captain. Later given to Mr. Ramos (Marc Anthony).
==Colt Commander== 
A Colt Commander is seen during the weapons purchase scene, and later used in the assault on Sanchez' home.

A Colt Mark IV Series 70 Gold Cup National Match is used to kill the first policeman, who claimed himself as part of the Mexico City Police Department criminal secret society named "La Hermandad", after being tortured. 
==SIG-Sauer P226== 
In the nightclub, Creasy carries a SIG-Sauer P226 as his weapon. Manzano (Giancarlo Giannini) uses a SIG-Sauer P226 to shoot Daniel Sanchez "The Voice" (Gustavo Sánchez Parra) at the end of the film.

=Rifles / Carbines=
