Reception and legacy
Most critics found the movie to be Jones' finest one, with De Waarheid's Johannes de Jong naming it "the Brunanter Hard Boiled". Others however have been less enthusiastic and criticized it for the absence of Dutch-speaking characters. At the Rosetown Film Festival, the film won the Barker Award for Best Film and Best Actor (Roe), while it was also nominated for those for Best Director (Jones) and Best Screenplay (Jones, Gordon), both of which lost to Christopher Bowers' Life and Times of Arthur Higginson.

Let the Pistols Sing has been a major influence for later Brunanter action movies. For example Adam Martin has revealed that Roe's character has been a significant inspiration for many of his films, including Lethal Suits and Sweet Revenge.
