'''''The Hurt Locker''''' is a 2008 Iraq War film directed by [[Kathryn Bigelow]] and written by Mark Boal that focuses on members of a US Army EOD team as they go about the business of disarming IEDs throughout the country during a yearlong deployment. The film's cast includes [[Jeremy Renner]], [[Anthony Mackie]], [[Brian Geraghty]], and [[Guy Pearce]]. The film would subsequently be nominated for nine Academy Awards and would receive six, including the Awards for [[:Category:Academy Award Best Picture|Best Picture]] as well as for Best Director. Director Bigelow and writer Boal would later collaborate on two more feature films: 2012's ''[[Zero Dark Thirty]]'' and 2017's ''[[Detroit (2017)|Detroit]]''. | |||

==Beretta 92== | |||
A [[Beretta 92]] (distinguished by its rounded trigger guard, frame-mounted safety, and butt-located magazine release) is used by Sergeant First Class William James ([[Jeremy Renner]]), most prominently when he stops an Iraqi taxi. Mark Boal, the film's writer, notes on the DVD commentary that the [[Beretta 92FS]] that was supposed to be used in the scene got stuck in customs, which explains why it changes to the correct model later in the film. Boal goes on to say that acquiring the 92 seen here was a difficult task; he scoured local bars, trying to find a suitable pistol, with no success. Finally, he found a Jordanian General who gave the producers the used 92 (which was then converted to blank-fire by armorer David Fencl). | |||

[[M4A1 Carbine]]s are used by Sergeant First Class William James ([[Jeremy Renner]]), Sergeant J. T. Sanborn ([[Anthony Mackie]]), Specialist Owen Eldridge ([[Brian Geraghty]]) as well as by other American soldiers. The carbines are equipped with a variety of sights and other attachments. The sights and attachments often change too. In particular, for most of the film, James doesn't have a flashlight on his M4, but one appears on it during the rescue of Eldridge. Also, in one scene, Sanborn's ACOG scope is briefly replaced by a red-dot sight before switching back. An M4A1 is also used by Jimmy (Sam Redford), one of the British contractors, although it is never seen clearly. Interestingly, Eldridge's M4 appears to built on an LMT lower receiver; in the opening scene of the film, it's possible to read "LMT" on the magazine well. | |||
Also note that Classic Army M15A4 airsoft carbines are also used to stand-in for the M4s during non-firing scenes (see below). | |||

== | ==Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replica== | ||
In many scenes of the film, whenever the M4s aren't fired, they're replaced by Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replicas, which would be legal for the actors to handle without the armorer present on the set. Most of them have had their Classic Army markings covered with black magic marker or paint, but they are recognizable by their white-painted fire position markings on the lower receivers (which no real AR-15 manufacturer uses). | |||
Also note that throughout the film, it is common to see the M4s' buttstocks change from the 4-position to the 6-position style. This is because the Classic Army M15A4 was only ever available with the 4-position stock. What this means is that all M4s seen in ''The Hurt Locker'' that have 4-position stocks are the Classic Army airsoft replicas; all of the real (blank-adapted) M4s in the film have 6-position stocks. | |||

Trivia: Producer Tony Mark commented that armorer David Fencl spent hours trying to make proper bullets for the Barrett to use when the actual ammunition was not cleared by Jordanian customs in time for the filming of the sniper scene.

The Hurt Locker is a 2008 Iraq War film directed by Kathryn Bigelow and written by Mark Boal that focuses on members of a US Army EOD team as they go about the business of disarming IEDs throughout the country during a yearlong deployment. The film's cast includes Jeremy Renner, Anthony Mackie, Brian Geraghty, and Guy Pearce. The film would subsequently be nominated for nine Academy Awards and would receive six, including the Awards for Best Picture as well as for Best Director. Director Bigelow and writer Boal would later collaborate on two more feature films: 2012's Zero Dark Thirty and 2017's Detroit.
The following weapons were used in the film The Hurt Locker:

Pistols
Beretta 92
A Beretta 92 (distinguished by its rounded trigger guard, frame-mounted safety, and butt-located magazine release) is used by Sergeant First Class William James (Jeremy Renner), most prominently when he stops an Iraqi taxi. Mark Boal, the film's writer, notes on the DVD commentary that the Beretta 92FS that was supposed to be used in the scene got stuck in customs, which explains why it changes to the correct model later in the film. Boal goes on to say that acquiring the 92 seen here was a difficult task; he scoured local bars, trying to find a suitable pistol, with no success. Finally, he found a Jordanian General who gave the producers the used 92 (which was then converted to blank-fire by armorer David Fencl).
Beretta 92FS
For the rest of the film, SFC James and Sergeant J. T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie) both use the Beretta 92FS pistol, as noted by the hocked trigger guard and slide-mounted safety. This is the gun that James was also supposed to use in the scene where he confronts the taxi driver, but it was held up in customs while that scene was shot (a Beretta 92 provided by a Jordanian General was used instead).
James (Jeremy Renner) radios a translator while pointing his 92FS at a man who was forced to wear a bomb vest.
Sergeant J. T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie), after trading some bolt-cutters for James' Beretta, tells him to leave the man in the bomb vest for the sake of everyone's safety.
Glock 19
A 2nd Generation Glock 19 pistol is carried by the leader of the British private military contractors (Ralph Fiennes). Sergeant J. T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie) takes the contractor's Glock and points it at his comrades while telling them to put down their weapons.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 Cruiser
A Mossberg 500 Cruiser shotgun fitted with a Surefire dedicated forend weaponlight is held by a guard at the FOB who intercepts SFC James after his vigilante mission to avenge Beckham's death.
Rifles
M4A1 Carbine
M4A1 Carbines are used by Sergeant First Class William James (Jeremy Renner), Sergeant J. T. Sanborn (Anthony Mackie), Specialist Owen Eldridge (Brian Geraghty) as well as by other American soldiers. The carbines are equipped with a variety of sights and other attachments. The sights and attachments often change too. In particular, for most of the film, James doesn't have a flashlight on his M4, but one appears on it during the rescue of Eldridge. Also, in one scene, Sanborn's ACOG scope is briefly replaced by a red-dot sight before switching back. An M4A1 is also used by Jimmy (Sam Redford), one of the British contractors, although it is never seen clearly. Interestingly, Eldridge's M4 appears to built on an LMT lower receiver; in the opening scene of the film, it's possible to read "LMT" on the magazine well.
Also note that Classic Army M15A4 airsoft carbines are also used to stand-in for the M4s during non-firing scenes (see below).
Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replica
In many scenes of the film, whenever the M4s aren't fired, they're replaced by Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replicas, which would be legal for the actors to handle without the armorer present on the set. Most of them have had their Classic Army markings covered with black magic marker or paint, but they are recognizable by their white-painted fire position markings on the lower receivers (which no real AR-15 manufacturer uses).
Also note that throughout the film, it is common to see the M4s' buttstocks change from the 4-position to the 6-position style. This is because the Classic Army M15A4 was only ever available with the 4-position stock. What this means is that all M4s seen in The Hurt Locker that have 4-position stocks are the Classic Army airsoft replicas; all of the real (blank-adapted) M4s in the film have 6-position stocks.
M16A4
A few American soldiers carry M16A4 rifles (possibly airsoft replicas, by the unnecessary screws in the A2 stocks) fitted with reflex sights and other attachments.
MPi-KMS-72
An MPi-KMS-72, an East German model of the AKMS with plastic handguards and a side-folding stock, is seen slung over the shoulder of the Iraqi police officer that talks to SFC James about the car bomb at the UN compound. What appears to be the same rifle is seen carried by insurgents later on.
Customized AKMS
Customized AKMS rifles (specifically WASRs) fitted with RIS foregrips and reflex sights are carried by most of the British private military contractors (PMCs).
Barrett M82A1M
A Barrett M82A1M (as noted by it having a long accessory rail but receiver mounted front and rear iron sights) is used by the private contractors to respond to an insurgent ambush, and is later used by Sergeants James and Sanborn to shoot several of the attackers. It should be noted that Sanborn and the other EOD team members could conceivably know how to operate this rifle as one of the M82's uses is as an anti-materiel rifle to destroy IEDs from a distance.
Trivia: Producer Tony Mark commented that armorer David Fencl spent hours trying to make proper bullets for the Barrett to use when the actual ammunition was not cleared by Jordanian customs in time for the filming of the sniper scene. Also, the ammunition used Chinese fireworks powder for gunpowder like most of the firearms in the film are using because of import restrictions on military props.
PSL Sniper Rifle
A PSL Sniper Rifle is used by an insurgent sniper who ambushes the EOD team and the private contractors in the desert.
Machine Guns
Browning M2HB
Browning M2HB machine guns are mounted on top of U.S. Army Humvees, including that of the EOD team. The M2HB is also used by Chris (Barrie Rice), one of the British contractors, during the ambush scene.
FN MAG 58
At the beginning of the film, an Iraq National Guard soldier is seen manning an FN MAG 58 mounted on a police truck.
Other Weapons
M136 AT4
An M136 AT4 is seen on the back of a soldier during the scene where James is trying to save the man who has been forced to wear a bomb vest.
CTS Model 5210 Smoke Grenade
Sergeant First Class William James (Jeremy Renner) is seen dropping a Model 5210 Smoke Grenade onto the ground during a mission, claiming that it will create a "diversion".
