Ans. Question 1- My idea behind that, is that would be too boring. How many times have you seen people being shot with a sniper rifle in your life? Plenty, right? No, the director thought it would be better for the SVD welding bad guy to call on a UAV to shoot at Mr. Hunt and fail, versus taking one good shot from long range and knocking his head off with a 7.62x54R.

:Well, sniping from a helicopter would not be as easy as that.

== "It's empty" ==
Saw the movie a lot of time ago, but I just remembered one little detail which I'm not sure of.
In the initial warehouse assault, Ethan uses a MP5 to rescue the agent and kill some baddies. In a given moment, she ask him how many bullets he has left in the gun. Ethan grabs the magazine, takes a look and answers "Plenty" or something like that. Then a goon appears, Ethan kills him easily with just one round, drops the gun and says "Empty" (I think).
The thing I am not sure is how many enemies he did kill with just one bullet for each. If it was only one baddie, then, how was he able to know that he still had one bullet left, by just taking a look at the empty magazine? Don't remember him checking the chamber. If he shot two or more mercs instead, then it's all right, because he saw a single round in the magazine and knew that there was another one chambered.
As I said, I saw the movie like two years ago, and I can't remember this detail.
According to the movie body count website, Hunt gunned down six bad guys during the warehouse raid.
The mp5's chamber wasn't locked back so Hunt knew there was one round left when he saw that the mag was empty...he said he "had enough" because there was only one bad guy left...one shot one kill...out the window.--[[User:Spades of Columbia|Spades of Columbia]] 21:31, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
Ok, thanks Spades of Columbia. Gotta buy more DVDs.
One important thing about this scene. He didn't do a chamber check. All MP5 weapons don't lock the bolt back when empty. HK designed it like that because their excuse is that you wouldn't want your enemies to know you are empty. Which the logic is stupid because to see your locked back bolt and they would need to be pretty close and with a clear line of sight. Anyway, I rewatched the scene. He had one bullet left and that was after he looked at his empty mag. Since he didn't do a brass check, the thing could have been empty. Also, for a solo mission like this where the only support he had are the guns outside and even those can't shoot everyone inside, he didn't bring any spare mags? I don't even remember seeing him do a mag change. Which mean he had to have precise accuracy to take down all the guards before running out of a 30 round mag. For a man of his occupation, he should of had at least have several extra mags handle plus 2 extra mags for his sidearm. Any less is unprepared, but for the purpose of drama, all he needed was one mag. Even more weird part was he didn't take weapons from the dead guards when he was out. Sure the movie is telling us all the guards are dead, but in real life, Ethan doesn't know that and now he and his VIP are without weapons. They could have picked up a gun and continued carefully getting the hell out of there. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 05:03, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

== SIG Sauer p229 sport ==
Davians "p228" is a SIG p229 sport not just because the compensator is almost exactly the same but because it has the distinctive raised sights of the p229 sport I've seen pictures of blackened sports on Google but maybe its p228 with a p229 sport compensator and sights anyone ?  --[[User:Blueboy1600|Blueboy1600]] ([[User talk:Blueboy1600|talk]]) 20:23, 11 September 2012 (EDT)
:First off from the design of the slide it is definitely a P228, there is no question about that. However it would be possible to put the compensator from a P229 Sport on a P228 as they have a common barrel, and this compensator only attaches to the barrel and not the frame (the compensator bolts onto a specially extended barrel that protrudes from the front of the slide). Not sure what you are talking about with the sights, they look like regular P228 ones to me (there is only the one image though so I could be wrong). In fact the sights are another reason this cannot be an actual P229 Sport as the front sight on that is mounted on the compensator and there is no front sight on the slide (the slide is not even machined to accept one). However if the pistol did have different sights, these are interchangeable between different SIGs.  --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 20:55, 11 September 2012 (EDT)

== IMF ==
I finally watched this film, and in the end, Ethan Hunt says IMF stands for "Impossible Mission Force." In the original series, however, it's "Impossible Mission'''s''' Force," or so says the team leader's folio. Is this a goof, or did they change the name in the movies? This is the first MI film I've seen since watching the series, so I never paid attention before. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 18:34, 9 June 2014 (EDT)
== g36k handguard ==
Sorry for my english, it is not my native language.
That is why I prefer to start this topic rather than to make an edit myself.
So about the g36k during the bridge ambush, I propose this edit:
"On few frames during the same scene, this G36K is replaced by a G36k with the more "rounded" G36 polymer handguard ( the two screw holes for installation of a picatinny rail on the side of the handguard and the ones on the underside, typical of the "rounded" g36 handguards with picatinny rails, are slighly visible.)"

does anyone know what the thing they used to shatter the wall on the police vehicle was? this was on the bridge when they were breaking out davian -anon

Incomplete Page

I've watched this movie many times and I noticed a few guns are missing. During the chopper chase, Luther tries to shoot the enemy gunship with a flare gun, and one of the IMF agents uses some kind of dart gun to immobilize Hunt.

When did they use AK's?

AK-47

Several men are seen with AK-47s.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
AK-47 7.62x39mm

AK-74

At least one of Davian's men caries an AK-74 in one scene.

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
AK-74 5.45x39mm

-I have no idea, but I think whoever said it is wrong. I only saw the AKMSUs, not AK-47s or -74s. -MT2008

I actually saw Owen Davian's men used AK-47s and Ak-74s during the warehouse raid and during the bridge ambush. They were just never seen very clearly.

Extra G36 mag

I just noticed that Ethan had an extra mag in the case, but I guess he was too much in a hurry to clip the mags together. What is bothering me is why is the rifle disassembled in the back of the van? Excalibur01


I was wondering that too. Maybe it's so an escaped prisoner cannot quickly shoot his captors or maybe it's because assembling the weapon creates more tension for the moviegoer. --Ben41 01:27, 12 March 2010 (UTC)

Well they had a scene where Ethan was training someone to assemble an M4 blind folded. So maybe they did a scene where a special forces guy actually gets a chance to assemble a weapon in live combat. The odds or reality of that is pretty stupid though. And seriously, even if he didn't have time to clip the mags together, he could have least put it in his jacket. Excalibur01

Also note that it is impossible to atttach (and remove) the carrying handle/optical sights (DE: HKV) of the G36 without using a screwdriver and doing so requires rezeroing of the sights. The whole idea of carrying the only long rifle/support weapon during a high risk operation dissasambled in a box in the trunk is absolutely ridicoulous. On the other hand we (German Army) were trained to (de-) assemble our weapons (amongst others the G36) not only blindfolded but also under the most unthinkable conditions and it took us less then 20 seconds (without the carrying handle of course) though doing this was more for fun than for actual battlefield conditions. Clipping the mags together is not a good idea because it makes this Weapon too top heavy (filled mag >0,5kg) and uneasy to handle during a prolonged firefight. Cantrary to popular belief it is not the fastest way to reload the weapon.

But you do agree that he should have at least TAKEN the extra magazine with him instead of leaving it in the box. He was running into a shootout and he didn't think that he'll need a reload? Excalibur01 14:30, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

He was being realistic about his purpose. He mostly likely knew that a 5.56 round wouldnt really do anything at the distance they where pertraying and that it really would have little effect on a plane shooting missles at them. He was out gunned from the start and just needed a little cover fire to keep the bad at bay. Spades of Columbia

Ok, what you just said made entirely no sense whatsoever. If you have a gun and extra mags, you would bring as much as you can carry not one mag in the gun and that's it. No one would just take a weapon out and leave the extra mags behind because they are "no match" for what the enemy is using. You use every bullet you have. And he wasn't needing a "little cover fire". He was trying to take out the goons rescuing his prisoner. Excalibur01

He barely got the chance to use the first magazine...what would be the purpose for the second mag, the last 5 to 10rds shot out of his gun was shot at nothing but thin air. Spades of Columbia

What do you mean barely got the chance? He was shooting at a helicopter that had the DOOR OPEN. He expended his only mag so fast and had a CLEAR shot at his prisoner! If he had reloaded, he would have killed the guy so he doesn't escape and cause him trouble later. Excalibur01 04:40, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

Go watch the movie again...ethan knew he didnt have a shot, at the end of his magazine he was shotting out of anger, that shot at that distance was not plausable, once again the initial use was for cover fire and he just happened to put a scope image of the bad guy getting away in a helicopter for dramatic effect...for movie sake the gun looked cool and had a small but uneffective objective, but everything about that senerio did not require the addition magazine. ethan wasnt attacking he was surviving. Spades of Columbia

It's bad movies logic. He was still in range with his G36 Excalibur01 14:08, 25 June 2010 (UTC)

How do you know he was in range?...He was shooting a elevated target from a bridge over the ocean with a red dot scope!...a range finder would have trouble telling you at what range to aim. While all this is going on the helicopter is moving, not only moving, but moving away from the gun. Even, and this is a big even, if he had time to reload what would he of shot at? By the time the gun was empty, the target was long gone and ethan gets rid of the gun and jumps into a car,why would there be a purpose for that second magazine or even showing him grabbing the magazine? Spades of Columbia

When you're in a combat situation, you wouldn't worry about how effective or impossible it would be to hit your target. You'd just try whatever you could. Besides, he could have seen where his rounds were going compared to his target and have adjusted his aim depending on the fall of the rounds. -guest

Ok, first off, the G36 he was carrying had what you could call "dual optics". It has a red dot and a scope to shoot with. A rifle like that could take out something at least 500 yards away. A helicopter is fast, but from the camera changes and points of view, Cruise's character still would of had enough range to at least take pot shots at the guy. Either way, reloading and continue firing until the helicopter is out of effective range would be the thing to do and if not, at least he'd be shooting his gun in anger. Excalibur01 03:35, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

Just rewatched the movie today and ethan reloaded the G36, so he did indeed bring the extra mag. Right after he shoots down the drone ethan jumps over that gap in the road after throwing the g36 across. Once he pulled himself up and started to run towards the helicopter you can hear him drop the mag and then you can see ethan put in a new mag and hear him rechambering a round. After in which he unloads the new mag trying to shot the helicopter...but want seems wierd is i can only count like 20rds tops out of each mag.Spades of Columbia

I saw that scene again and all I can heard is the sound effects making a clicking noise. What little of Cruise actually doing to the rifle almost seems like he was just checking the chamber. I really wish we can get behind the scenes footages to see if the actor actually did a reload or was it all just sound effects added in. It just sounded like generic noises you heard when someone's handling a gun in a movie Excalibur01 04:50, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

The rest of the henchmen

Any ideas what happened to some of Davian's men after the bridge ambush?

They got paid and went on to the next job

Davian's Gun

is it possible that it's just a P229 Sport with a black finish? rather than a P228.

More questions regarding the bridge ambush

1. The guy with the Dragnov sniper rifle told the other guy controlling the UAC to fire rockets at Ethan Hunt. He obviously did have a clear shot through his scope, so why didn't he shoot at Hunt himself rather than just calling an airstrike? &

2. Any ideas what language he was speaking?

the language was german

re.1: Ever heard of the character shield. Basicly it's impossible for low ranked goons to kill the main good guy. He probably knew that and sent the UAV to attack and distract Hunt so that he himself could escape alive.

Ans. Question 1- My idea behind that, is that would be too boring. How many times have you seen people being shot with a sniper rifle in your life? Plenty, right? No, the director thought it would be better for the SVD welding bad guy to call on a UAV to shoot at Mr. Hunt and fail, versus taking one good shot from long range and knocking his head off with a 7.62x54R. That's cliche action movies man, get used to it. --Camden Hennis 14:43, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Well, sniping from a helicopter would not be as easy as that. Sure, it looked pretty steady on screen, but I'm sure it was just artistic license not showing how shaky the sniper's shot would have been, lest the audience get confused and think they're watching another Bourne film. Also, if I remember correctly, it wasn't such a clear shot even, but a small glimpse of Hunt.--Mr-Jigsaw 03:47, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Movie quotes for main page.

Ethan Hunt (Tom Cruise): This is a Beretta 92F. It's a very accurate, close-range weapon. Don't point it at me. Julia (Michelle Monaghan): Sorry. Ethan Hunt: It holds 15 rounds. When the mag is empty, the slide will lock back like this. Julia: How do you know so much about this. Ethan Hunt: To reload, push this button. The empty mag falls out and you shove the other one in, like the batteries in the flashlight in the kitchen, then relase the slide. Julia: Why are you giving me a gun? Ethan Hunt: There could be others. If you have to use it, you stay low. You identify your enemy. Point and shoot. It's very simple. Point and shoot. --Mission: Impossible III

--Charly Driver 09:33, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

In fact the sights are another reason this cannot be an actual P229 Sport as the front sight on that is mounted on the compensator and there is no front sight on the slide (the slide is not even machined to accept one). However if the pistol did have different sights, these are interchangeable between different SIGs. --commando552 (talk) 20:55, 11 September 2012 (EDT)
Yeah your right is a p228 i was wrong but i still think they attached the compensator I'm curios where they got the compensator to put on it i didn't know SIG sold those --Blueboy1600 (talk) 19:33, 19 September 2012 (EDT)
I imagine they were sold separately, but even if they weren't you could just take the compensated barrel straight out of a P229 Sport and put it in a P228. --commando552 (talk) 19:51, 19 September 2012 (EDT)

IMF

I finally watched this film, and in the end, Ethan Hunt says IMF stands for "Impossible Mission Force." In the original series, however, it's "Impossible Missions Force," or so says the team leader's folio. Is this a goof, or did they change the name in the movies? This is the first MI film I've seen since watching the series, so I never paid attention before. --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:34, 9 June 2014 (EDT)

g36k handguard

Sorry for my english, it is not my native language. That is why I prefer to start this topic rather than to make an edit myself. So about the g36k during the bridge ambush, I propose this edit:

"On few frames during the same scene, this G36K is replaced by a G36k with the more "rounded" G36 polymer handguard ( the two screw holes for installation of a picatinny rail on the side of the handguard and the ones on the underside, typical of the "rounded" g36 handguards with picatinny rails, are slighly visible.)"
