28 Weeks Later (2007)

28 Weeks Later is the 2007 sequel to 28 Days Later. The sequel follows a brother and a sister who make their way to a London supposedly free of the virus outbreak from the first film and now under the occupation of NATO and the US Army. The film's cast included Rose Byrne, Jeremy Renner, and Robert Carlyle.

The following weapons were used in the film 28 Weeks Later:

Handguns

Beretta 92FS

The Beretta 92FS (standing in for the military-issue M9) is the standard sidearm for the US troops in the movie. Major Scarlet (Rose Byrne) uses one notably to kill an infected Captain, then it is seen in her M12 holster for the remainder of the movie.

+'''''28 Weeks Later''''' is the 2007 sequel to ''[[28 Days Later]]''.  The sequel follows a brother and a sister who make their way to a London supposedly free of the virus outbreak from the first film and now under the occupation of NATO and the US Army. The film's cast included [[Rose Byrne]], [[Jeremy Renner]], and [[Robert Carlyle]].
-One of the snipers in an early scene can be briefly seen with an M107/M82 sniper rifle. It later makes small appearances in the scene where the soldiers snipe the infected from the rooftops.

+__TOC__<br clear="all">
-After the infected start to overrun the roofs, Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) trades his M21 for an [[M16_rifle_series#M4_Carbine|M4 Carbine]]. He uses this weapon throughout the movie until his death. Scarlett then uses it and is beaten to death with it. The weapon comes with a RIS foregrip, EO-Tech sight, and a night vision sight that adds a magnification. A memorable scene is when the survivors go through the subway and Scarlett guides the kids with the night vision sight (actually she makes THEM go first). Shortly after, the daughter shoots her infected father with it, who killed Scarlett and was stalking them in the subway.

-The [[Browning M2]] can be seen in both fixed position mounts and atop vehicles in ''[[28 Weeks Later]]''. It is used on screen briefly when the infected break out of the buildings and are fired upon with the [[Browning M2]]. Also, when the train carrying the returning refugees pulls into the rail station a fortified position sporting an M2HB is visible through the window.

+== MP5A5 ==
+A [[Heckler & Koch MP5A5]] equipped with an EOTech sight and double magazines is seen being used by Flynn ([[Harold Perrineau]]). He jokingly pulls it on Doyle when he scares him and later when the kids confront him near the end of the movie.

+One of the snipers in an early scene can be briefly seen with a [[Barrett M82|Barrett M107/M82 sniper rifle]]. It later makes small appearances in the scene where the soldiers snipe the infected from the rooftops.

-[[Image:BrowningM2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|]]
+== M4A1 carbine ==
+The [[M4A1 carbine]] is the standard weapon of US soldiers deployed to the UK and is seen in the hands of literally hundreds of troops throughout the movie. Sgt. Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) notably wields a highly customized version after he leaves the roof. Just before his sacrifice, he leaves the weapon for Major Scarlet ([[Rose Byrne]]), who later uses the night vision to help the kids and herself navigate through the pitch-black subway tunnels. Tammy ([[Imogen Poots]]) also uses the weapon at the film’s climax to kill her infected father. She then drops the weapon and leaves it on the subway floor. Doyle's rifle has an EOTech sight, UTG foldable foregrip, CAA CBS CAR telescoping stock, PVS-14 NVG sight, and no front post sight. A lot of the non-firing M4s are Classic Army airsoft replicas. You can see the white Armalite trademarks on the side and some shots even the winding wheels on the high cap magazines.

-== M240 ==
+=== Faulty Sights ===
+Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) has his M4A1 fitted with an EOTech sight along with the PVS-14 NVG sight. Note the lack of a holographic reticule.   When he is seen taking down the infected, the view through the scope makes it appear that his shots are off from the center.   Similar to the "faulty scope" in ''[[Saving Private Ryan]]'', this was an intentional decision by the filmmakers in order to see the bullet hits more clearly.

+The US Army's bolt action [[Remington Model 700P]] LTR is seen briefly in the hands of a rooftop sniper during the beginning of the film and the sniper barrage during the outbreak.

+== Springfield M1A ==
+[[Springfield M1A]]s that have been modified to replicate the [[M14_Rifle#M21.2FM25_Sniper_Rifle|M21 Sniper Weapon System (SWS)]] are used by most of the Delta rooftop snipers (including [[Chris Ryman]]). Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) also uses one, with a Parker & Hale bipod, Leupold scope and urban camouflaging.

+The [[Browning M2|Browning M2HB heavy machine gun]] can be seen in both fixed position mounts and atop vehicles in ''[[28 Weeks Later]]''. It is used on screen briefly when the infected break out of the buildings and are fired upon with the [[Browning M2]]. Also, when the train carrying the returning refugees pulls into the rail station a fortified position sporting an M2HB is visible through the window.

-== Mk12 SPR ==
-A sniper shooting at infected is seen using this rifle briefly.
-== M21 DMR ==
-The [[M14_Rifle#M21_Designated_Marksman_Rifle|M21 Designated Marksman Rifle]] is an accurized version of the [[M14 Rifle]] chambered in 7.62 x 51mm NATO. In the movie Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) uses this firearm to pick off infected from a rooftop; he later abandons the rifle and switches to his [[M16_rifle_series#M4_Carbine|M4 Carbine]] when he moves to ground level.

-== M2A1 Flamethrower ==
-Used by sweeper teams who are traveling through the poison gas. The teams consist of three members, two members with M4 carbines and the third with a flamethrower, burning the dead infected. Sgt. Doyle ([[Jeremy Renner]]) is ingulfed by flames as he push starts a Volvo so the others could get away.
-[[Image:M2F.jpg]]
-== MP5A3 Submachinegun==
-Flynn's seemly sidearm. He pulls it jokingly on Doyle whilst the two are fooling around, and near the end of the film, he threatens the kids at the Stadium as to the whereabouts of Doyle.
-==Beretta M9==
+=Grenade Launchers=
-The standard issue sidearm of the U.S. troops. Seen used by Scarlett and in Doyle's thigh holster, though he never uses it.
+== M203 Grenade Launcher ==
-[[Image:BerettaM92FS.jpg|thumb|400px|left|Beretta 92FS - 9mm]]
+A few US soldiers are seen with [[M203 grenade launcher]]s attached to their [[M16 rifle series#M4/M4A1 Carbine|M4A1 Carbines]] and [[M16A2]] rifles.
+[[Image:M203.jpg|thumb|none|300px|M203 grenade launcher 40mm]]

+=Other=
+== Custom Flamethrower ==
+Used by a US Army sweeper team, this unknown flamethrower is used to burn the dead infected. I could only get one good picture of it, though. Note the other US Army sweeper using an M4 with Ergo rail covers, vertical grip, optics, and ranger plates. In real life, the US Army got rid of its flamethrowers by the late 1970s.
