It appears that Al Giordino's rifle during a desert battle is a Romanian WASR-3 rifle built at the ''S.C. Uzinele Mecanice Cugir S.A.'' (Cugir Factory) in Romania. The weapon probably came from a foreign armory, but for the purposes of identification, the U.S. version of the Romanian .223 AK will be identified. The Romanians exported a series of three AK type rifles called the SAR series. | |||
:''The SAR-1 was 7.62x39mm, the SAR-2 was 5.45x39mm and the SAR-3 was 5.56x45mm. Then a later variant was imported, the WASR.

Like the SAR series, the WASR-1 was 7.62x39mm, the WASR-2 was 5.45x39mm and the WASR-3 was 5.56x45mm. However, the SAR-3 rifle has the original AK-74 style gas block, the WASR-3 has a modified AKM style gas block and blonde wood. Both the SAR-3 and the WASR-3 take the ROMAK 223 magazine (Wieger style). This rifle is set up with the Wieger style magazine. Al Giordino's rifle is a WASR-3 (or the European equivalent) and of course, '''his''' is fully automatic. It looks to be the same rifle used in the movie ''[[Casino Royale (2006)|Casino Royale]]'' since ''Sascha Robey'' was the armorer for both movies.'' | |||

French Flintlock Pistol
Yves Massarde (Lambert Wilson) gives a matched pair of Flintlock Pistols to General Zateb Kazim (Lennie James) at his palace.

It is mentioned that they were formerly the property of "General Mayenne" causing Kazim to quip that they must have killed 'The Comte de Vézelay' (French for The Count of Vézelay, in the Bourgogne region of France. Though there is no famous Count from that area, it is most known for holding the abbey where the bones of Mary Magdalene were brought).

AKM
Mixed in amongst the AK-47 rifles are AKMs, many of which are modified with 'tribal' decorations.
FN FAL
The FN FAL is seen carried by General Zateb Kazim's armored troops during the final battle (in addition to the plethora of AK-47 type rifles). They look to be the solid metric style front sight block, however the barrels seem shorter than usual, so the exact model is unknown, but they appear to be metric FALs.
L1A1
The L1A1 with a scope is used by a Mali sniper, but later commandeered by Al Giordino (Steve Zahn).
Romanian WASR-3
It appears that Al Giordino's rifle during a desert battle is a Romanian WASR-3 rifle built at the S.C. Uzinele Mecanice Cugir S.A. (Cugir Factory) in Romania. The weapon probably came from a foreign armory, but for the purposes of identification, the U.S. version of the Romanian .223 AK will be identified. The Romanians exported a series of three AK type rifles called the SAR series.
- The SAR-1 was 7.62x39mm, the SAR-2 was 5.45x39mm and the SAR-3 was 5.56x45mm. Then a later variant was imported, the WASR. The WASR was essentially the same firearm, but with a lower grade of fit and finish (The original WASRs were imported to take only single-stack magazines (to please BATF) and the wholesalers opened up the mag well to take standard magazines and replaced some of the parts with U.S.-made parts to make them legal). Like the SAR series, the WASR-1 was 7.62x39mm, the WASR-2 was 5.45x39mm and the WASR-3 was 5.56x45mm. However, the SAR-3 rifle has the original AK-74 style gas block, the WASR-3 has a modified AKM style gas block and blonde wood. Both the SAR-3 and the WASR-3 take the ROMAK 223 magazine (Wieger style). This rifle is set up with the Wieger style magazine. Al Giordino's rifle is a WASR-3 (or the European equivalent) and of course, his is fully automatic. It looks to be the same rifle used in the movie Casino Royale since Sascha Robey was the armorer for both movies.
Civil War Rifles
Seen in the historical flashback sequence at the beginning of the film, many rifles are seen from a distance, but it is hard to identify them since the battle is at night and the only time we see long rifles, the soldiers holding them being blown up by cannon fire.
