The T-1000 cannot form complex machines that require chemicals or lots of moving parts. So how does he keep getting the 9mm Beretta every time he shifts back to the cop? You can see the gun form after he kills the stepdad.

He stole it from the cop he killed in the beginning of the movie.

As to where he "put it" he could have either absorbed it into his body and suspended it there or stash it somewhere (like under the cushion of the bench nearby when he took the form of the floor in the pysch hospital)

I assumed he was pulling the gun into his side when he morphed into someone else and pushed it out again when he changed back into the cop.

Hmmm, I like that theory but it seems to clearly being formed with the step parent scene.

Plus he needs more ammo, he shot a lot and never reloaded up on more.

Also, why not form like 8 arms or turn into a velociraptor when chasing them at the psych ward? Badassness!

The T-1000 does have 3 arms at one point in the movie.

I remember a post somewhere bitching about this movie. Their complaint was that during the scene where the bad robot was flying the chopper, you could clearly see the real pilots arm reaching around him to fly while the actor fired a gun. (MP5?). Robot had created a third arm to both shoot and fly, dumbass actually believed they had actor in seat of a real flying helicopter with a broken windshield shooting a gun while the pilot huddled behind him doing a "reach around" pilot job.

Exactly. I expect continuity errors and such but they made it a point to always show Sarah and Arnold reloading.

I didn't say he didn't have 3 arms but if I were the T-1000 I'd spawn 8 and be the razor sharp octopus velociraptor of death.

Internal holster, inside the liquid metal body.



That said, could the T-1000 not be a basic gun anyway? It doesn't have to involve complex moving parts, and I'll tell you why.


The T-1000 can form solid objects, and form/reform them at a fairly slow (but not painfully slow) rate.


It could store any kind of ammunition inside of itself, and move it forward into a hardened chamber/barrel form, then strike the primers with a self-made firing pin (remember, hard objects like knives are no problem for it).


So, all it needs to do is go to a gun store and eat lots and lots of ammo.

Indeed.  He has 3 arms while flying the helicopter.  He's also seen reloading during this scene (one hand flying the copter, the other two reloading). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVc0DoE4tY0&t=13s

 



As for the gun materializing, I'm assuming the OP is talking about the end of this scene?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tf2dn3m7yPU&t=1m50s




Seems reasonable to assume that, as someone else pointed out, he had the gun stored somewhere inside of his body and he deployed it to his hip after changing form.  Since he can't form complex machines or moving parts, it's probably a layer of liquid metal that helped push the gun out to his hip and then receded once it was in place.

If not, then the answer is because it's only assuming the external appearance of one, by way of a liquid metal body that can do some real Sci-Fi chameleon shit.

Well, I'm ASSuming he started off with 3 mags from the 1st officer.



IIRC, spent 2 mags at the mall shooting up Arnold (did one reload) and then one mag at the mental ward and dropped the gun afterwards. Of note, he lifted a 45 off the guard at the mental ward, but didn't use it. Don't recall him shooting the beretta other than that.




I'm assuming he got more ammo/guns after the his contact with the MC officer outside the mental ward.

I like the idea of a giant jumping spear.  T1k would BE his own ammo.  Or he could just get close enough, envelope and invade the target through whatever holes were available.  I got mad when he didn't flow into the car and kill em all when they drove away from the asylum.

In the original script, there was going to be a scene where he was required to check the Beretta at the mental ward as they had a 'no guns policy'. They were planning on showing him morph the gun into his body to hide it, then re-produce it once he found Sarah. They either didn't have time to shoot , or the shot would have cost too much to make, so they didn't do it.
