While he’s now loudly calling for gun control from the Joe Biden White House briefing room, Hollywood actor Matthew McConaughey has made a small fortune executive producing and starring in TV and movies using guns.

IMFDB.org notes that 6 of the guns were handguns, consisting of two revolvers and four semiautomatic pistols.

The revolvers were a Smith & Wesson 627 snub nose and a Smith & Wesson 629 snub nose.

The semiautomatic pistols were a Glock 17,  M1911A1, Sig Sauer P226, and a Magnum Research Desert Eagle Mark I.

Among the remaining guns, two were the type that Democrats refer to as “assault weapons.” Those two were an AKM and an AKMS, variants of both of which are also manufactured and used in other countries as full automatic. 

Two other guns in True Detective Season One were submachine guns, which means they are fully automatic firearms that shoot pistol rounds, such as 9mm, instead of rifle rounds, such as .556,  308., etc.  The submachine guns were the IMI Uzi and the Intratec TEC-9.

A Winchester Model 1912 saw-off shotgun also made an appearance in season one, as did the M67 Hand Grenade.

On March 27, 2018, People magazine reported McConaughey’s push to “ban the assault weapons for civilians.”

He added, “This is a no-brainer. And to my friends out there that are responsible owners of these recreational assault weapons that they use for recreation, please let’s just take one for the team here and set it down.”

On June 6, 2022, Breitbart News reported that McConaughey penned an op-ed pushing for gun control and describing new restrictions as an “acceptable sacrifice." Read the FULL ARTICLE HERE.
