'''The following firearms were used in the film ''[[Three Kings]]'''''
 


'''''Three Kings''''' is a 1999 Gulf War film set during the waning days of Operation Desert Storm. In the film, three US Army reservists, Sergeant First Class Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]), Staff Sergeant "Chief" Elgin ([[Ice Cube]]), and Private First Class Vig ([[Spike Jonze]]), find a map while searching Iraqi POWs that may lead to an Iraqi bunker filled with captured Kuwaiti gold. A retiring Special Forces Major ([[George Clooney]]) gets wind of the discovery and leads them on a search for the gold.

=Rifles/Carbines=
==M16A2==
The [[M16A2]] can be seen throughout the movie in use by the various US soldiers including SFC Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]), SSG "Chief" Elgin ([[Ice Cube]]), and PFC Vig ([[Spike Jonze]]). In one scene, Barlow notably seems to lift up the rear sight of his M16A2 to reveal some sort of magnified optic that he uses to determine if the surrendering Iraqi is armed, a feature that the A2 rear sight does not have.

==Colt Model 727==
MAJ Archie Gates ([[George Clooney]]), the former Delta Force Operator and now soon-to-be-retired Green Beret, is seen armed with a [[Colt Model 727]] in the film and in promotional pictures. This is accurate for a Special Forces soldier during the time period of the film to carry, because the [[M4 carbine]] had not yet been adopted. It should be noted, however, that in real life, SFOD-D operators actually used the Colt Model 723 (which is nearly identical to the 727, but featured an A1 rear sight) up until the issuance of the M4 Carbine in the mid-1990s.

[[Image:TK M45.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Gates meets with the Iraqi Officers, bringing his Model 727 to a fire-ready position.]]


==AKMSU==
An [[AKMSU]] carbine can be seen in the hands of the Iraqi officer in the "moving of the gold" scene at the Karbala bunker. He is later shot in the leg with his own weapon during a struggle with Major Archie Gates ([[George Clooney]]), the incident leading to a shootout between the protagonists and the Iraqis.

[[Image:TK AKS2.jpg|thumb|601px|none|MAJ Gates grabs the barrel, then pushes it down and the officer gets shot in the leg.]]


==Lee-Enfield==
The [[Lee-Enfield]] rifle is seen being carried and fired by one of the Shiite refugees.

[[Image:TK Lee.jpg|thumb|600px|none|SMLE on the left. It appears that he unloads two cartridges while cycling the action of the rifle.]]
[[Image:3K 2109.jpg|thumb|600px|none|The SMLE is seen on the left.]]


==Mauser Gewehr 98 / Mauser Karabiner 98k==
Many of the Shiite refugees are seen armed with Mauser 98 bolt-action rifles - both the [[Gewehr 98]] rifle and the [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle. The brother of the Shiite refugee with the SMLE is armed with a K98k.

==Lee-Enfield No.5 "Jungle Carbine"==
A fighter is shown carrying what appears to be a [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield|Lee-Enfield No.5 "Jungle Carbine"]].
[[Image:No5JungleCarbine.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.5 Jungle Carbine - .303. This is not a chopped down No. 4 conversion (like many jungle carbines are) but an original No.5 carbine.]]
[[File:3K 106.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The rifle on the left.]]


==Mosin Nagant==
Many of the Shiite refugees and rebel Iraqi troops can be seen armed with [[Mosin Nagant]] M91/30 rifles and M1944 carbines. Most notably in the scene where a child rebel uses a scoped version to shoot an Iraqi soldier shortly before the gas scene. He was then killed by the Iraqi tank in the village. It appears that the Mosin Nagant rifle has a folding bayonet. Some inconsistencies are present with the rifle in the scene (Notably the boy has the rifle seemingly stuck out too far in some shots). It appears as if a scoped M44 was used in the scene and the sequence was then filmed again with a M91/30 Sniper and shots were mixed together.
[[Image:M44Carbine.jpg‎|thumb|none|450px|Mosin Nagant M44 Carbine, with attached side-folding bayonet - 7.62x54mm R.

[[Image:3K 157.jpg|thumb|601px|none|The boy fires the rifle.]]


==AKM==
The [[AKM]] can be seen throughout the movie in use by Iraqi forces. After the accident, MAJ Gates, SSG Elgin, PFC Vig, and several other refugees use these weapons as well.
[[Image:AKMRifle.jpg‎ |thumb|none|450px|AKM - 7.62x39mm]]
[[Image:TK AK.jpg|thumb|600px|none|The Iraqi holding the AKM is seen through Barlow's 0-200 yards close range sight on his M16A2. The sights are NOT night and day!

==SKS==
Amir ([[Cliff Curtis]]), a number of Shiite refugees, and rebel Iraqi soldiers are seen armed with the [[SKS rifle|Siminov SKS carbine]].

=Handguns=
==Beretta 92FS==
The [[Beretta 92FS]] can be seen throughout the movie as well. Used by SFC Troy Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]), SSG Chief Elgin ([[Ice Cube]]), PFC Conrad Vig ([[Spike Jonze]]), MAJ Gates ([[George Clooney]]), as well as several other characters. When raiding the Karbala bunker, Chief pistol-whips an Iraqi soldier with his Beretta, causing him to accidentally fire the weapon since he had his finger on the trigger. The stray round thankfully doesn't harm anyone, Gates chastising him for his lack of firearm handling proficiency.

== M16A2 Assault Rifle ==
==MIL Thunder 5==
The [[MIL Thunder 5]] is the peculiar-looking "big revolver" carried by PFC Conrad Vig ([[Spike Jonze]]). He uses it throughout the movie, but loses it when he is shot. As the revolver obviously is not Army-issue, in a deleted scene Vig is seen receiving the weapon inside a chocolate bunny from his parents, in which he specifically calls it a Thunder 5 and notes that it shoots .410 shotgun shells.

[[Image:3K 112.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Closeup of the Thunder 5.]]


The [[M16 rifle series#M16A2 Rifle|M16A2]] can be seen throughout the movie in use by the various US forces and the four main characters.
==Makarov PM==
The [[Makarov PM]] pistol can be seen being used by Iraqi Officers. MAJ Gates also disarms a soldier who was carrying one and later gives one to SFG Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]) to confront Captain Said ([[Said Taghmaoui]]), the Iraqi soldier who was his torturer.

[[Image:M16A2 Three Kings.JPG|thumb|none|500px|SFC Troy Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]) takes aim at an Iraqi soldier with an M16A2 in ''Three Kings''.]]
An Iraqi officer points a vintage [[Nagant M1895]] revolver in the face of Adriana Cruz (Nora Dunn) to deter her from wanting her video tape back. (The character of Cruz is likely inspired by real-life journalist Christiane Amanpour).

==M4 Carbine==
==CZ 52==
When Gates is seen working as a Hollywood military adviser, he is seen showing an action star how to disarm an enemy of what appears to be a [[CZ 52]].

==M60==
The [[M60 machine gun]] is seen mounted on top of the Humvee, and is fired a few times during the confrontation between the main characters and the Iraqi soldiers at the Karbala bunker. The same Humvee-mounted M60 machine gun struck the windscreen of a van driven by SFC Troy Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]) after the Humvee ran over a land mine and exploded.

The [[Beretta M92F#Beretta 92 FS|Beretta M92FS]] can be seen throughout the movie as well. Used by SFC Troy Barlow (Mark Wahlberg), SSGT Chief Elgin ([[Ice Cube]]), PFC Conrad Vig ([[Spike Jonze]]) and numerous other US personnel. Elgin accidentally fires his at one point when pistol-whipping an Iraqi soldier during the raid on the Karbala bunker, though thankfully no one is harmed by the stray shot.
==RPK==
During the mission to rescue Barlow from the Iraqis, one of the Iraqis can be seen with an [[RPK light machine gun]], which he discards when fleeing from the ruse of Saddam's arrival.
[[Image:RPK lmg.jpg|thumb|none|450px|RPK light machine gun - 7.62x39mm]]

== M60 Machine Gun ==
==DShK==
A [[DShK]] 12.7mm Soviet Heavy Machine Gun is seen mounted atop the Iraqi tank. It should be noted that the T-72 tank, which the vehicle in the film is supposed to simulate, is normally armed with an [[NSV]] heavy machine gun, not a DShK.

== Thunder 5 pistol ==
 
This is the peculiar-looking "big revolver" carried by PFC Conrad Vig. The [[Thunder 5]] is used to threathen a group of Iraqi soldiers at the Karbala bunker, perform target practice from a moving vehicle, and finally to shoot Iraqi soldiers during the rescue of SFC Barlow. An Interesting thing to note is that this weapon is not US Army Issue (Indeed, there is a deleted scene in which Vig recieves the weapon on Easter as a gift from his parents).

The [[Makarov PM]] pistol can be seen being used by one of the Iraqi soldiers to kill one of the Shiite refugees imprisoned at the Karbala bunker, and then being used by one of the Iraqi's interrogating Barlow when he's rescued. The pistol is then taken by Barlow who appears ready to kill his former captor, but instead fires several shots into the wall near his head.

The [[Type 69]] RPG launcher, fitted with a PGO-7 scope, can be seen used by Iraqi soldiers in two scenes; first to blow up a tanker truck full of milk at the Karbala bunker, then to destroy one of the cars in the convoy pretending to be "Saddam’s” entourage.
 
==Mauser Gewehr 98/ Mauser Karabiner 98k rifle==
 
Many of the Shiite refugees are seen armed with Mauser 98 bolt-action rifles - both the [[Mauser Gewehr 1898|Gewehr 98]] rifle and the [[Karabiner 98k]] rifle.

== AKM ==
 
The [[AK-47|AKM]] can be seen throughout the movie in use by Iraqi forces and also the four main characters and Shiite refugees. During the mission to rescue SFC Barlow, an Iraqi soldier who was not fooled by the protagonists' Saddam ruse uses an AKM to fatally wound Conrad Vig and seriously injure Barlow before being taken down by a Shiite refugee and Major Gates, the latter also using an AKM at the time.

== RPK light machine gun==
==T-72 Tank==
An Iraqi T-72 tank is seen arriving at the bunker. Because the production was filmed in Arizona, the tank is the same one seen in the film ''[[Red Dawn (1984)]]'' and ''[[Rambo III]]'' that was manufactured by Veluzat Armored Vehicles out of Newhall, California.
[[Image:3K_146.jpg|thumb|601px|none|The tank arrives at the bunker.]] 
[[Image:3K_154.jpg|thumb|601px|none|Sideview of the Iraqi tank.]]


During the mission to rescue Barlow from the Iraqi's, one of the Iraqi's can be seen with an [[RPK light machine gun]], which he discards when fleeing from the ruse of Saddam's arrival.
=Trivia=
==Bullet Wound Description==
In a very rare un-Hollywood moment, MAJ Gates ([[George Clooney]]) explains what a bullet does when it enters a human body. His finger, which he uses to point at SFG Barlow ([[Mark Wahlberg]]) as a demonstration, seems to "shoot" a 9x19mm bullet.

Three Kings (1999)

Three Kings is a 1999 Gulf War film set during the waning days of Operation Desert Storm. In the film, three US Army reservists, Sergeant First Class Barlow (Mark Wahlberg), Staff Sergeant "Chief" Elgin (Ice Cube), and Private First Class Vig (Spike Jonze), find a map while searching Iraqi POWs that may lead to an Iraqi bunker filled with captured Kuwaiti gold. A retiring Special Forces Major (George Clooney) gets wind of the discovery and leads them on a search for the gold.


The following weapons were used in the film Three Kings:


Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!


Rifles/Carbines

M16A2

The M16A2 can be seen throughout the movie in use by the various US soldiers including SFC Barlow (Mark Wahlberg), SSG "Chief" Elgin (Ice Cube), and PFC Vig (Spike Jonze). In one scene, Barlow notably seems to lift up the rear sight of his M16A2 to reveal some sort of magnified optic that he uses to determine if the surrendering Iraqi is armed, a feature that the A2 rear sight does not have.

Colt Model 727

MAJ Archie Gates (George Clooney), the former Delta Force Operator and now soon-to-be-retired Green Beret, is seen armed with a Colt Model 727 in the film and in promotional pictures. This is accurate for a Special Forces soldier during the time period of the film to carry, because the M4 carbine had not yet been adopted. It should be noted, however, that in real life, SFOD-D operators actually used the Colt Model 723 (which is nearly identical to the 727, but featured an A1 rear sight) up until the issuance of the M4 Carbine in the mid-1990s.

AKMSU

An AKMSU carbine can be seen in the hands of the Iraqi officer in the "moving of the gold" scene at the Karbala bunker. He is later shot in the leg with his own weapon during a struggle with Major Archie Gates (George Clooney), the incident leading to a shootout between the protagonists and the Iraqis.

Mosin Nagant

Many of the Shiite refugees and rebel Iraqi troops can be seen armed with Mosin Nagant M91/30 rifles and M1944 carbines. Most notably in the scene where a child rebel uses a scoped version to shoot an Iraqi soldier shortly before the gas scene. He was then killed by the Iraqi tank in the village. It appears that the Mosin Nagant rifle has a folding bayonet. Some inconsistencies are present with the rifle in the scene (Notably the boy has the rifle seemingly stuck out too far in some shots). It appears as if a scoped M44 was used in the scene and the sequence was then filmed again with a M91/30 Sniper and shots were mixed together.

Handguns

Beretta 92FS

The Beretta 92FS can be seen throughout the movie as well. Used by SFC Troy Barlow (Mark Wahlberg), SSG Chief Elgin (Ice Cube), PFC Conrad Vig (Spike Jonze), MAJ Gates (George Clooney), as well as several other characters. When raiding the Karbala bunker, Chief pistol-whips an Iraqi soldier with his Beretta, causing him to accidentally fire the weapon since he had his finger on the trigger. The stray round thankfully doesn't harm anyone, Gates chastising him for his lack of firearm handling proficiency.

MIL Thunder 5

The MIL Thunder 5 is the peculiar-looking "big revolver" carried by PFC Conrad Vig (Spike Jonze). He uses it throughout the movie, but loses it when he is shot. As the revolver obviously is not Army-issue, in a deleted scene Vig is seen receiving the weapon inside a chocolate bunny from his parents, in which he specifically calls it a Thunder 5 and notes that it shoots .410 shotgun shells.

Trivia

Bullet Wound Description

In a very rare un-Hollywood moment, MAJ Gates (George Clooney) explains what a bullet does when it enters a human body. His finger, which he uses to point at SFG Barlow (Mark Wahlberg) as a demonstration, seems to "shoot" a 9x19mm bullet. Gates explains penetrating abdominal trauma accurately; the abdomen has a number of organs with large blood supplies, and several which accommodate normally benign bacterial colonies that can become severe infections outside them. Likewise, a later scene shows the effects of a 7.62mm bullet from an AKM entering Barlow's chest and perforating his right lung, creating a pneumothorax (a pressure imbalance between the air inside the lung and the air in the chest cavity) and causing the lung to collapse.
