The Hooligan Wars is a 2012 UK crime drama about professional soccer player Andy Hollington who, after an accident, needs to find another source of income for himself and his pregnant girlfriend. He ends up operating an ice cream vending truck, hence the USA title ‘The Ice Cream Wars’.

Soon he experiences that his truck turns out to be a lucrative cover for criminal activities and he gets the unwanted attention of a Polish gang. In an attempt to defend his business, he requests the assistance of a local gang but this gets him involved even deeper into a dark and rotten world…


The following weapons were used in the film The Hooligan Wars:


Handguns

Assault Rifles

Heckler & Koch G36V

A Specialist Firearms Officer carries a Heckler & Koch G36 which is assumed to be the G36V export version because the lack of dual optical sight would allow a scope to be mounted.
