Anyone have any info on this movie? What's it about? Also, that Aimpoint on the SF guys' M4s is a CompM4, the newly adopted M68 CCO. The only time I remember seeing a CompM4 was in an episode of ''Burn Notice''. Edit: And the guy with his RDS mounted on the carry handle has a 727, not an M4.

G36
Just rewatched the movie and at one point the beretta switches to a G36 (low profile rail of a c model, typical sights +a red dot scope ,folded skeleton stock fitted with a cheek pad, only the back end is seen but clearly a G36) My version is in Russian dub, but its after the scene where they talk how one of the guys read her article, on my copy its about 44-45 minutes in.

Not sure if it will get a wide release in the USA.
Also - that Dragunov is a PSL.
