The Hunting Party is a 2007 war drama about discredited war correspondent Simon Hunt (Richard Gere) who takes along journalist Benjamin (Jesse Eisenberg) and cameraman Duck (Terrence Howard) on an unauthorized mission to track down the No. 1 war criminal at large in Bosnia, Dr. Bogdanović, a.k.a. "The Fox".
The movie is loosely based on real-life events in Bosnia in 2000 when 5 journalists set out on a similar mission to track down convicted war criminal Radovan Karadžić, the former President of the Republic of Bosnia and Herzegovina. Interestingly, two members of that group have cameo’s in this movie as journalists.
The following weapons were used in the film The Hunting Party (2007):
The Heckler & Koch G3A3 is seen in the hands of apparent Somali government troops during a flashback to Somalia. Also, the rifle is seen in the hands of Dutch UN troops in Bosnia.
Also seen during the flashback scene is a FN FAL "G Series", in the hands of a militia member in a pickup truck driving through the railway settlement.
During a flashback scene to Somalia, an MG42/MG3-style machine gun can be seen. Due to this scene being shot in Croatia, it is most probably a locally produced Zastava M53.
A Zastava M72, the Yugoslavian version of the Russian RPK-74 machine gun can be seen firing at a location where a news crew is hiding during a flashback to the Bosnian War.
In several scenes, the Zastava M84, a Yugoslavian copy of the Russian PK MG can be seen mounted atop vehicles. They are easily distinguishable by their solid stocks.
A suspicious roadhouse waiter (Semir Krivic) near the village where Dr. Bogdanović is said to be hiding, pulls out a Maverick Model 88 on Simon, Duck and Benjamin.
