	'''''Beaufort''''' (Hebrew: '''''בופור‎''''') is a 2007 Israeli war film directed by Joseph Cedar. Set during the Israeli withdrawal from Southern Lebanon in the summer of 2000, the film follows a group of IDF soldiers as they man a combat outpost at the ancient Crusader fortress of Beaufort Castle and the efforts of their commander, Lieutenant Liraz "Erez" Librati ([[Oshi Cohen]]), to keep his soldiers alive while they prepare for their eventual departure.

	Most of the IDF soldiers, including Lieutenant Liraz, are armed with the [[M16 rifle series#Colt Carbine/Model 653/Model 727/Model 733\|Colt Model 653 Carbine]]. The carbines are mostly seen with two magazines taped together and are fitted with Elbit Falcon or MEPRO 21 reflex sights. Note that the usage of MEPRO 21 is double historic inconsistency. In the period depicted in the film, MEPRO 21 were very rare and used almost exclusively by special forces units. Mass issue of the optic only began in 2002. Secondly, the model shown (with the top encased fibre optic) is the 2nd gen of the model which wasn't introduced until years later... The usage of Elbit Falcon is correct for the time.
