I think it's the DTA SRS too, that was my very first thought when I saw the picture. I can't think of many other bullpup bolt-action rifles that aren't anti-materiel, let alone one that looks like the SRS. Also what's up with the ACR section saying it's possibly the first appearance of the rifle? It was in Terminator Salvation and one of the Transformer movies, I believe. - | I think it's the DTA SRS too, that was my very first thought when I saw the picture.

Wrong, in T4 and Transformers 2, those were a Magpul Masada. The early prototype rifle before it had some different change overs, like moving the charging handle and revised handguard before becoming the ACR [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 07:03, 23 February 2011 (UTC) | Wrong, in T4 and Transformers 2, those were a Magpul Masada.

That's what caught my attention to this movie. When I was looking around the net and I came across the poster and saw the ACR on it. At first I dismissed it as a Masada, but then I can see the charging handle is more forward. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 17:00, 23 February 2011 (UTC) | |||

I have no idea. I was hoping someone on the site knows. This gun appeared during the opening credits. A lot of carbine receivers eliminated the forward assist because they don't like it or they don't think there is a need for one. [[User:Excalibur01|Excalibur01]] 17:39, 2 March 2011 (UTC) | |||

== 700PSS actually an M24 SWS (or mockup)? == | |||
Just watched this on demand for some reason (really bored), and I noticed the bolt action rifle that Watters uses looks more like an M24 more than a 700PSS. The stock looks like it matches the HS precision stock on the M24, including the LOP adjustment, and it's got the front sight that matches the M24, which the regular 700 is missing. Agree/disagree, anyone? [[User:The Kaptain|The Kaptain]] 14:48, 18 August 2012 (CDT) | |||

Sorry, but these will be deleted
Sorry, but PNG's are now not allowed and these will be deleted. Also, these weapons are somewhat familiar and you should put forth a little more effort in identifying and putting them on the page (you could have started by looking at the S.W.A.T. (2003) first). --Ben41 01:08, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
You can delete all the .PNG images now, they've been replaced on the Main Page with .JPG's
PNG's were deleted and thanks for your cooperation. --Ben41 01:31, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
I dunno how, but the whole movie was uploaded to YouTube which I watched a few days ago, but has since been removed. I remember the opening scene there being two thugs, one had a Nickel Desert Eagle, didn't see exactly what model or calibre. Another thug held a sawn off shotgun, which looked like the Remington 870 sawn off. The owner of the House which the thugs broke into had the Nickel AK Varient from Belly. Robert Patrick also used a Stainless Smith & Wesson automatic. Should I still make note of these on the main page? Obviously can't upload any images.
Not 100% but think the unknown sniper rifle might be a Desert Tactical Arms Stealth Recon Scout --commando552 01:54, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

Blu Ray comes out next week. I want to cap it. Excalibur01 03:44, 23 February 2011 (UTC)

MP5 identification
The MP5s used in the movie were misidentified as MP5A5s (four-position trigger group, retractable stock), when they are MP5A3s (SEF trigger group, retractable stock). I corrected it. Ramell 18:52, 1 March 2011 (UTC)

Extra screencap I wanted to put for the sake of it.
The slow walk.
What actually is this?
There's no forward assist or brass deflector there, so it must be some other (earlier?) type of AR-15 carbine. I can't claim to know very much about such things, so any ideas?
Also is that one of those old Armson red-dots? Don't think I've ever seen one in a movie before. Jimmoy 14:41, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
