The real Daniel Saxon.
I heared that the real Daniel Saxon plays a cameo in this movie.
Does anyone knows wish moment in the movie that is ?
Dont tell it to the Jackals or most i say the Hells Angels.......
His last name isn't Saxon but he does have a cameo role. You'd never be able to recognize him. ......for obvious reasons.
share his real name is supposedly dan black, but I doubt we'll find out which part he played proberly just in the background somewhere.I did find this article which seems I think has more than a few links to the story.

Danny was my husbands car partner for a while. I wish they had told the whole story.......... Dan lived quite a life.
shareI wonder if this story was even true as I can't find any evidence it actually existed. I am a current law enforcement officer and a former Los Angeles County Sheriff Deputy!
If anyone could find out and let all of us know as to where we can read up on or what??
It's hard to believe that you are in Law Enforcement with a name like Deputycorndog. lol
But Danny's story is true. I can't remember the year was that the Playboy article came out but his story is there in an interview. Hollywierd has glammed it up a bit as usual.
H.A.s still have a contract out on him so, there is no more to be said. He is covered by the umbrella, or brotherhood.
yeah it is a true story, but it was in 1975 california and the hells angels was the mc gang. they dont speak of the story too much because he was so deep in. ive heard very briefly about his story in some of the narcotics interdiction schools ive been to. hells angels are still going but theyre more into the modern crimes now and pretty much acting as an outlaw ol skool mafia. if im not mistaken he was acting as a Sargeant At Arms for his undercover mc gang, which handles all weapons and narcotics sales and distribution. its a pretty interesting story and i watch the movie every other week
sharethe story of Dan Saxon is some what similar to the life of Anthony Tait, who was probably the only man ever to successfuly infiltrate the Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club. Tait was the Seargeant at Arms in the Anchorage Chapter in Alaska who was working with the FBI, ATF, and DEA. In time, his reputation rose very quickly and even became the right hand man of Sonny Barger the leader of the HAMC and learned all the club's dirtiest secrets during an elaborate FBI undercover sting. He sent away 38 major members across the US including Sonny Barger and the club's two best Meth cookers; Kenny Owen and Chico Manganiello. He could've probably taken out the entire club if DEA didn't want to shut it down so quick. His story is very similar to Dan Saxon and if you want to know more read the book "Hells Angels: Into the Abyss" by Yves Lavigne. His book s kick ass!
shareI remember that this was on "top cops".
shareTony Tait was NEVER a cop. I've met him; no police agency would've ever hired him, but he did do the right thing and he put a lot of HA in prison.
shareIt happened in 1975 in Northern California. I know that Sonny Barger (the Founder of the Oakland Chapter of the Hells Angels was involved because shortly after this all came to light his wife sued him. If you either google Undercover Angel (The Article) or Dan Black is how I found that.
shareya its true.. in arizona nevada and cali.. i remember a bunch of people were busted
shareI realize it's a little late to be responding to this, but just in case someone does read it here goes.
I'm wondering if some people aren't confusing this movie with William Queen's account in Under and Alone of his 1998 infiltration into the Mongols MC. I understand his book has been adapted to become a movie for release in 2010. The was a TV documentry based on Queen's account which lead me to believe some people are confusing a 1992 fictional movie with Queen's true account.
very interesting that. i love the movie and after reading the bit on the dvd about larry ferguson finding an article in an issue of playboy i have been trying to find said article for awhile now, as i would love to know more about his story.
shareDan Black was they name he used while undercover, not his real name.
shareyou will never know but it is fun figuring it out.. i think its the tatooist , he has the same build hair style and they never show his face,or the guy blood shook hands with in the "hole thing" when they were talkin over whats for sale..although he could be the 47th biker on the san carlos run . lol
