The Marine is a 2006 action film featuring WWE star John Cena as Sergeant John Triton, a US Marine who has to utilize his special skills to rescue his wife, who has been kidnapped by ruthless bank robbers. Several direct to video sequels that also starred WWE wrestlers would follow: 2009's The Marine 2 (featuring Ted DiBiase Jr.), 2013's The Marine 3: Homefront, 2015's The Marine 4: Moving Target and 2017's The Marine 5: Battleground, (the latter three films featuring Mike "The Miz" Mizanin).
The following weapons were used in the film The Marine:
Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Rifles / Carbines
M16 (SP1)
John Triton (John Cena) uses an M16 (SP1) rifle fitted with a Cobray 37mm Launcher to dispatch al-Qaeda members torturing US Marines during the opening scene in the film. The gun is fitted with an A1-style birdcage muzzle brake, which gives the weapon a large and impressive "star pattern" muzzle flash. The original slab-side M16 was actually never issued to the US Marines.
Colt Model 733
Rome (Robert Patrick) takes a Colt Model 733 carbine from the back of his car during the robbery and uses it to hose down a police car before the car is destroyed by Morgan's (Anthony Ray Parker) rocket launcher. Later, Bennett (Manu Bennett) uses the same gun to shoot at Triton (John Cena) as he pursues them in a police Camaro.
Norinco Type 56
The Al Qaeda members torturing U.S. Marines during the opening scene are mainly armed with Norinco Type 56 rifles, fitted with underfolding 'pig-sticker' bayonets and AKM-style muzzle brakes.
Machine Guns
RPD Light Machine Gun
One of the Al Qaeda shooting at a US chopper is using an RPD during the opening scene.
Pistols
Beretta 92FS
John Triton (John Cena) is seen using what appears to be a Beretta 92FS to shoot several Al Qaeda members. The gun is never shown in focus. A South Carolina Police officer hunting down Rome (Robert Patrick) and his gang holds his Beretta 92FS on John Triton (John Cena) when he finds him in the woods. After Triton turns his handcuffs on himself with his Marine-style hand-to-hand, he takes the officers Beretta from him, but never uses it.
Beretta 92SB
Do to continuity error, Bennett's (Manu Bennett) Taurus PT92 changes into a nickel plated Beretta 92SB when he looks for Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) under the fishing hut.
Jericho 941 F
Rome (Robert Patrick) carries a brushed chrome Jericho 941 F (meaning his has a frame mounted safety) as his sidearm in the film, chambered in .45 ACP. Triton (John Cena) is also seen on the film poster wielding a Jericho, but is not seen wielding one in the film.
Taurus PT99
Angela (Abigail Bianca) is given an older model stainless Taurus PT99 by Rome (Robert Patrick), who takes it off a guard during the first robbery and carries it as her sidearm in the film.
Taurus PT92AFS
Bennett (Manu Bennett) carries a pair of stainless Taurus PT92AFS pistols during the robbery and continues to carry a single PT92-AFS for the rest of the film.
Ruger KP95
Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) carries a Ruger KP95 as his sidearm in the film. It appears to be a Pre-2005 model.
Heckler & Koch P7M13
When Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) is in the chop-shop looking for a good getaway car, a guard doing a pat-down discovers a pistol on him, which appears to be a Heckler & Koch P7M13.
Heckler & Koch USP-9
Agent Van Buren (Jerome Ehlers) carries a 9mm Heckler & Koch USP as his sidearm in the film.
Browning Hi-Power
Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) is also seen holding a Browning Hi-Power while in the chop-shop.
CZ 75B
Vescera (Damon Gibson) uses a CZ 75B to shoot at Triton (John Cena) during the car chase.
Revolvers
Smith & Wesson Model 14
The two cops at the gas station carry Smith & Wesson Model 14 revolvers, even though the rest of the state police carry Beretta 92FS pistols. After John Triton's (John Cena) wife Kate (Kelly Carlson) is kidnapped by Rome's (Robert Patrick) gang, he takes an officer's Model 14 and a speed loader and begins the chase. Unfortunately the gun is knocked from his hand before he can reload and is thus never used.
Submachine Guns
IMI Uzi
Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) uses an IMI Uzi to shoot at Triton (John Cena) during the car chase scene.
Shotguns
Remington 870 Custom
Billy (Jeff Chase), a hick in the woods, holds a Remington 870 shotgun with an old style USMC heatshield and bayonet lug adapter and sawed off buttstock, on Triton (John Cena) when he accuses him of being a cop. It resembles the shotgun used by Denzel Washington in Training Day, Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Woody Harrelson in Natural Born Killers and a random thug in Desperado.
Other
Cobray CM203 Launcher
Attached to John Triton's M16 (SP1) rifle is a Cobray CM203 Flare Launcher, standing in for M203 grenade launcher. Unlike a real grenade launcher, it is shown capable of detonation at very close ranges, which is not possible with real grenade rounds due to a safety feature based on how many times the round spins in flight. Also, the explosion of the round is depicted as a huge fireball which engulfs the bad guys, another piece of film fiction.
Armbrust ATW
Morgan (Anthony Ray Parker) uses an "Israeli Shoulder Fired Single Shot Rocket Launcher" to blow up a police cruiser once Rome's (Robert Patrick) Colt Model 733 proves ineffective. In reality it is an Armbrust ATW, a weapon originally produced in Germany and later on by Singapore, probably standing in for the larger MATADOR which was in part Israeli-developed and is based on the Armbrust.
Hind Minigun (Acetylene Gas Firing)
At the film's beginning, the "Hind" helicopter during the Iraq mission fires off a chin-mounted Gatling-type gun during the opening scene, which is actually firing Acetylene gas to simulate muzzle flash. This actually is footage taken from the film Rambo III and the helicopter is a Aérospatiale Puma mocked up as a Russian MIL Mi-24 Hind. The Minigun is standing in for the YakB 12.7mm which is typically mounted on real Hinds.
