There are a few clear shots when he first picks up the rifle. It is obviously not an M16, or any other variant of the design.

== Fake M16 == | |||
Are these fake M16s in any other movies? I am trying to get a better look at them as I just realised that the lightening cut above the magazine well is wrong for an Arsenal AR, and seems to match the one found on the [[Valmet M62]]. Having said that though, I think I can see the remains of a regular AK rear sight which wouldn't be on a Valmet. I know they are also in ''[[Day of the Dead (2008)]]'' but you can barely make it out in the caps. Could you machine down the bottom of a regular milled receiver to make it look like this (presumably so it lined up better with the A2 handguard), although this seems like a lot of effort to put into something that doesn't really look like an M16 anyway. Anyone have any thoughts? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 08:42, 16 April 2012 (CDT) |

Weapon on Poster
The gun in the hands of JCVD, is that actually in the movie as a franken-gun or is it photoshopped? I havent seen the movie and there are no caps up yet.
