-Mesrine and his accomplice Jean-Paul Messier ([[Roy Dupuis]]) are armed with anachronistic [[M16A2|PostBan AR15 HBAR]] rifles (most likely a Bushmaster XM15E2) when they attack the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul prison.

What is unusual is that the filmmakers decided to use post ban AR-15 rifles (which was a cosmetic change forced on the gun industry in 1994 by the Clinton Administration, and has since been expired after 2004).  The heavy barreled rifles have no flash hiders, muzzle threads or bayonet lugs. No military or police unit used these rifles.  The use of these rifles is doubly anachronistic since the sequence takes place in the early 1970s.
