Generation Kill (2008)

Generation Kill is a seven part Iraq War miniseries that premiered on HBO in the summer of 2008. The miniseries was based on the book of the same name, which was a chronicle of Rolling Stone writer Evan Wright's experiences being embedded with the Marines of the First Reconnaissance Battalion during the initial stages of the 2003 US invasion of Iraq. The series was produced by the creators of the HBO series The Wire.

The following weapons were featured in the miniseries Generation Kill:

Rifles

M4A1 Carbine

The M4A1 Carbine is the main rifle used by the United States Marines of First Recon in the miniseries, including Sergeant Brad 'Iceman' Colbert (Alexander Skarsgård) and Corporal Josh Ray Person (James Ransone). The M4s seen in the series all have UTG full quad rails (as opposed to KAC quad rails handguard, used by the real-life Recon Marines), A1 tear drop forward assist buttons as opposed to the A2 rounded buttons on factory M4s and 6 position M4 LE buttstocks (which isn't inaccurate but also not as common then) instead of the original CAR 4 position stock ubiquitous to the Marines at the time. Most of the Marines' M4s have no additional accessories, while the team leaders all have M4s fitted with M203 grenade launchers and AN/PAQ-4 infrared laser designators (in real life, the AN/PEQ-2 was used by the Recon Marines instead, which is why the show's dialogue makes reference to the PEQ-2 batteries). Sgt. Colbert's M4, which is the most unique of the M4 Carbines in the series, sports an AN/PVS-17 night sight (sometimes replaced with an ACOG scope), a M203 grenade launcher, UTG rail covers, PAQ-4 laser module, and an ERGO grip. Colbert appears to be the only Recon Marine whose M4 is fitted with optics, rather than the standard carry handle/iron sights. Sgt. Rudy Reyes carries an M4 with a UTG vertical foregrip and a PAQ-4; he is the only Marine who isn't a team leader and gets a PAQ-4, and also the only Marine whose M4 has a vertical foregrip. Also note that with the exception of some officers, First Recon are the only Marines to carry the M4A1 as standard issue; probably the result of a need for a lighter weapon that's easier to carry in cramped Humvees. It should also be noted that they are seen quoting and handling AAA batteries for their laser sights and night vision, when in reality, the AN/PAQ-4s and AN/PVS-7s use AA batteries. Also for some reason, their M4s are using chrome bolt carriers, even though the particalised bolt carriers had been used in the M16A1 (and its successors) since its adoption in 1967.

+In many scenes of the miniseries where no blank-firing weapons were required, the Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replicas of the M4 were substituted (as evidenced by the carry handle and white Armalite markings).  The rifles are notably seen carried by members of Alpha Company in the miniseries.

The newer M16A4 would have mostly phased out the M16A2 in service for the Marine Corps, but because the mini-series depicts the Invasion of Iraq in 2003, the M16A2 was the standard rifle of most Marine units at the time, making it entirely accurate.

-The [[M16 rifle series#M4/M4A1 Carbine|M4A1 Carbine]] is the main rifle used by the Marines of First Recon in the miniseries, including Corporal Josh Ray Person ([[James Ransone]]) and Sergeant Brad 'Iceman' Colbert ([[Alexander Skarsgard]]). The M4s seen in the series all have full quad rails, and some have attachments like PEQ laser modules and various optics.  Those without M203 launchers mostly have Knights Armament Vertical Grips on the forward rails. Sgt. Colbert's M4, which is the most unique of the M4 Carbines in the series, sports an AN/PVS-17 night sight (sometimes replaced with an ACOG scope), a M203 grenade launcher, rail covers, PEQ infrared laser modules, and an ERGO grip.

+[[Norinco Type 56-1]]s constitute the majority of the AK-pattern rifles used by Iraqi soldiers, civilians and even American Marines, in particular one platoon commander, Captain Dave "Captain America" McGraw ([[Eric Nenninger]]). Whilst all of the Type 56-1 rifles in the series are of normal length, none are seen with the folding stock deployed.

The LAVs are seen firing their Bushmasters after the First Recon encounters enemy forces at the bridge. During the filming of the miniseries, the LAVs were practical vehicles made from plywood and sheet metal on a truck chassis.  However, these mockups did not satisfy former 1st Recon Marine and miniseries' key technical adviser [[Eric Kocher]], who insisted that they be replaced with CG models, at the cost of $240,000.
-Several [[Browning M2|Browning M2HB]] machine guns are mounted on the Marines' Humvees, and are often used in conjunction with the Mk. 19 grenade launchers to assault Iraqi positions.
