The weapons of "Squid Game" - The Netflix phenomenon

South Korea broke into the entertainment industry with award-winning movies like Parasite, and now Squid Game has become a global phenomenon.
In just one week, Squid Game has become one of Netflix's most-watched shows across multiple regions.
As Weapons and Gear Manager, I've collected Squid Game's weapons for us to ogle and enjoy.
The M1911A1 from The Front Man
The Front Man is an enigmatic character and cold-blooded killer in Squid Game.
His oddly geometric mask and all-black costume make him look like some sort of grim reaper. He is brutally effective in the series and wields an M1911A1.
The M1911A1 is a classic American combat pistol that has been in use around the world since 1911. Since this gun is in use around the world, it's not hard to believe that an M1911A1 might appear in Squid Game in South Korea.

Honestly, I have no idea how he uses his sights because they're so small and he wears a mask. However he aims, he wields the weapon with brutal efficiency.
The S&W Model 10 of Managers

The Model 10 provides managers with a simple yet effective weapon to keep operations running smoothly. These double-action, six-shot revolvers feature a four-inch barrel and large wooden grips, making them tough for combat use. They're not fancy, but they work well.
The Model 19 Soldiers
I like the Model 10, but I love the Model 19. The Model 19 is a full-size combat revolver chambered in the man-killing 357 Magnum.

Model 19 revolvers are fantastic guns and proven combat revolvers that were popular with police officers until the early 90s. These big six inch pistols are the very definition of a combat revolver.
That's why they make sense for soldiers in Squid Game. Executives must be armed like a lieutenant must be. They can afford the smaller and lighter Model 10. Model 19 is for combat.
Soldiers' MP5s

HK made the MP5 in the 1960s. It went on to become one of the most famous submachine guns ever created.
For the soldiers, it makes sense. They don't need a rifle for the ranges they work on, and the lighter, shorter MP5 gets the job done. It's easy to wield, and in close combat it can be hard to beat.
