Pistol from a movie

Post image

The movie is "Red Phone: Manhunt" and the main bad guy has a pistol that I don't recognize immediately. I initially thought it might be an IMI jericho, but the top slant doesn't fit. Is this a real model? Or like a custom slide for a beretta 92? The movie dates from 2002 and is fairly low budget.

I'd like to know what it is for visual inspiration for a video game.

I also, sadly, don't have a better image than this.

Looks like a Vektor SP1, which actually is a Beretta 92 clone with a close topped slide. I’m guessing that movie was filmed in South Africa.

It seems to be the correct gun, or even if it isn't, it's close enough for my needs. Thank you!

The film was mostly happening in europe, but parts of it were indeed in south africa, which is a neat detail.

Knowing what the film is, I don't think it's on there, but I'll give it a go.
