The Raid: Redemption, also known as simply The Raid, is a 2011 Indonesian action film directed by Gareth Evans and starring Iko Uwais as a member of a 20-man Detachment 88 team that must fight its way out of a criminal-infested apartment building after being trapped there by a vicious drug lord. The film made its North American debut at the Toronto Film Festival, and entered a wider release in early 2012. A sequel, The Raid 2, was released in 2014.
The making of the movie shows airsoft guns used as props in the movie. None of the firearms in this movie are real. The ejected shells and flashes were all added digitally.
The following weapons were used in the film The Raid: Redemption:
Nearly all of the Detachment 88 operators use Heckler & Koch HK416 rifles with attached suppressors. These guns are in reality airsoft replicas of the 416 made by WE.
Other thugs are shown aiming Remington 700 sniper rifles as they prepare to ambush the Detachment 88 team. These guns are airsoft replicas of the KJ M700 Takedown.
Several thugs fire Knight's Armament PDWs during various action sequences. These guns are in reality airsoft replicas of the PDW made by WE, distinguishable by their STANAG-style magazines.

Miscellanea
All the team members were sent to actor boot camp with KOPASKA, a frogman and UDT unit of the Indonesian Navy, to learn weapons handling and tactics.
