This is not a 590 Cruiser. It's a 500 Mariner with a pistol grip. I own one that looks just like it (you can see a picture of my Mossberg on my profile, though I didn't have the pistol grip on it at the time I took the photo). -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]] 23:12, 4 December 2009 (UTC) | |||

This is not an M16A2; it lacks the A2-style rear sight and brass deflector. It's actually an M16A1 with M16A2 hand guards.
These aren't M4A1s; they're some type of M16A2 carbine variant (probably the Model 725) with chopped barrels and fake XM177-style flash suppressors installed. On IMFDB, we tend to call those "XM177 mock-ups"; they've been seen in several other movies and TV shows (such as The Rock and Seven Days, among others). -MT2008 17:13, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

The MP5s
Bill,
This is an MP5A3 with an Aimpoint sight and a tri-rail RAS forearm. Interestingly, it has an M16-style pistol grip fitted to the under-barrel rail. I can't tell for sure, but in the first picture, it looks to me as though it's got a 15-round magazine (which almost nobody uses anymore in real life). -MT2008 14:19, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Mossberg
This is not a 590 Cruiser. It's a 500 Mariner with a pistol grip. I own one that looks just like it (you can see a picture of my Mossberg on my profile, though I didn't have the pistol grip on it at the time I took the photo). -MT2008 23:12, 4 December 2009 (UTC)
