	Hard to see, but at 1:08:23m a soldier seems to have a Colt Model 607/Colt Model 609. I think it might be that the chamber isn't chromed, indicating a 607. It seems to be from stock footage, so it might be an actual one, and not a modification. Maybe someone with a blue ray version can have a closer look. (Uploaded and commented by [[User:FoiD\|FoiD]], 15 October 2011, but never appeard on this page.)		Hard to see, but at 1:08:23m a soldier seems to have a Colt Model 607/Colt Model 609.

			==AK-47/Type 56s==
			One thing I have always wondered about this movie is how they got their weaponry. In an era where all other movies were using [[Valmet Assault Rifle Series\|Valmet M71]]s as stand ins for the 'real' Kalashnikov weapons this movie and Apocalypse Now had the 'real deal'. Was it just stuff captured by the Philippine Army or what? --[[User:Charon68\|Charon68]] ([[User talk:Charon68\|talk]]) 21:30, 21 October 2014 (EDT)

	Am just kind of wondering if the flamethrower DeNiro uses is, in fact, an M2. In the first screencap he is clearly not holding the forward pistol grip but, instead, is holding on to the tube of the ignition system. Could this have been some sort of mock up? --[[User:Charon68\|Charon68]] 01:26, 11 August 2010 (UTC)		Am just kind of wondering if the flamethrower DeNiro uses is, in fact, an M2.

			From the main page: "(Trivia: DeNiro requested a live bullet to be used in this scene to heighten the sense of danger. John Cazale (Stan) did not protest, yet compulsively and understandably checked that the bullet was not next in the chamber for the scene.)"
