->''Of all the weapons in the vast Soviet arsenal nothing was more profitable than the Avtomat Kalashnikova model of 1947. More commonly known as AK-47 or Kalashnikov. It's the world's most popular assault rifle, a weapon all fighters love; an elegantly simple nine-pound amalgamation of forged steel and plywood. It doesn't break, jam, or overheat. It'll shoot whether it's covered in mud or filled with sand. It's so easy, even a child can use it; '''[[ChildSoldiers and they do]].''' The Soviets put the gun on a coin. Mozambique put it on their flag. Since the end of the Cold War, the Kalashnikov has become the Russian people's greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar, and suicidal novelists.''\\

** While Hammer tries hard to evoke this trope, in actuality his models are fat, hairy and sport 80's hairdos - because all the guns he shows off with are the kind that militaries don't use, for lots of reasons. He tops his botched attempt to arouse his audience by explaining what the M134 Minigun is to ''experienced Air Force officers''. Of course, it is in line with his characterisation, which is rather crudely aimed at making him the butt of every stupid joke in the film.

* Just prior to the climatic finale in HotFuzz, Angel loads himself up with an enormous array of weaponry acquired earlier in the film, all presented in fast but loving detail, with loading them with ammunition, cocking and twirling galore. In one of the DVD commentaries the director faux apologizes for saying so, and remarks he must be a 14 year old boy, but he claims the sequence gets him hard. Sounds like gunporn alright.
* Big Daddy's studio-stroke-armoury in KickAss fits the bill - racks and racks of beautiful weapons, including a number of rare items. And, wonderfully, a jetpack-mounted twin-minigun rig. Mmm...

* No mention for {{Black}}? This game is built around the premise of gun porn! The guns were actually designed to look cool, and so sacrificed their realism. The most notable offender being the Uzi submachine gun with the charging handle being surrounded by an RIS rail. So they added one on the side instead. Or the main menu, which just shows a variety of guns firing in glorious slo-mo in the background. The audio is designed so that gunfights actually sound like an orchestra. Gun porn at its finest.
