From the Vault: Remington 11-87 from "No Country for Old Men"

We&back in "The Vault" at the movie prop house Independent Studio Services (ISS) with motion picture armorer Larry Zanoff. Today, Larry shows us the silencer-equipped Remington 11-87 shotgun carried by the psychopathic hitman Anton Chigurh, played by Javier Bardem, in "No Country for Old Men." The script simply called for a silenced semi-auto shotgun - but at the time (2005) such a weapon didn&exist! So Larry and his colleagues had to get inside the head of the Anton Chigurh character and create the type of gun he would have built. (Spoiler Alert: they didn&build a real silencer; the "silenced" shots were created through sound editing.) The result? One badass assassin&weapon that became almost another character in the movie!
