The henchman's pistol is another prop as he is seen firing two pistols while Bearded holds his gun. But the henchman's gun is seen too briefly and only from the left side.

I think that all M16s are most likely of the same model, and something tells me that these are probably some civilian versions, since it is unlikely that any military rifles younger than M16A1 will appear in Russian films. Shooting, as in most other Soviet/Russian films, is absent, since no one will spoil expensive weapons by converting them into blanks and (as expected) shooting with conventional cartridges is not always possible. --[[User:Slon95|Slon95]] ([[User talk:Slon95|talk]]) 13:31, 4 December 2020 (EST) | |||
:Closeups show different receivers, so the M16s are not of the same model. But they may be assembled of part of different rifles, which is very simple with AR-15s. And yes, they doesn't fire, in firing scenes M16s are replaced with SturM-16s.--[[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 13:42, 4 December 2020 (EST) | |||

This looks to have an external extractor like a Star Model B.
Was there any good look at the other ones or were they just the same prop reused? Black Irish Paddy (talk) 08:51, 10 October 2020 (EDT)
- Thanks! I missed the extractor... my poor eyesight and an old, worn-out monitor :( This is the only good view of the pistol. Here are some more images but they aren't good:
