I don't believe those are BM59s mocked up to look like M-14s but rather M-1 Garands mocked up for the same purpose. Similar weapons are visible in [[A Rumor of War]] and [[Escape from the Planet of the Apes]]. They were widely used before civilian versions like the [[M14|Springfield M1A]] or Norinco M14S. --[[User:Charon68|Charon68]] ([[User talk:Charon68|talk]]) 20:37, 13 October 2013 (EDT) | I don't believe those are BM59s mocked up to look like M-14s but rather M-1 Garands mocked up for the same purpose.

BM59
I don't believe those are BM59s mocked up to look like M-14s but rather M-1 Garands mocked up for the same purpose. Similar weapons are visible in A Rumor of War and Escape from the Planet of the Apes. They were widely used before civilian versions like the Springfield M1A or Norinco M14S. --Charon68 (talk) 20:37, 13 October 2013 (EDT)
- I don't think that's the case here. The length of the stock appears to be shorter and closer to the length of a BM59 than the longer M1 Garand. --Funkychinaman (talk) 21:01, 13 October 2013 (EDT)
