+==AR-15A2 HBAR==
+Mesrine and his accomplice Jean-Paul Mercier ([[Roy Dupuis]]) are armed with anachronistic post-ban [[M16A2|AR-15A2 HBAR]] rifles (most likely a Bushmaster XM15E2) when they attack the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul prison. Their rifles have multiple magazines taped together. These rifles are "post-ban" AR-15 rifles (which was a cosmetic change forced on the gun industry in 1994 by the Clinton Administration, and expired in 2004). The heavy barreled rifles have no flash hiders, muzzle threads or bayonet lugs. Even if they would standing in for period-correct AR-15 rifles, the use of these rifles is doubly anachronistic since the sequence takes place in the early 1970s and their design is based on the M16A2 introduced in the mid-1980s.
+During the real assault, they carried [[M1 Carbine]]s.
