Also, the Magpul SL stock that this rifle is equipped with is also anachronistic since it was first marketed in late 2014. | |||

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is a 2016 military thriller directed by Michael Bay that recounts the events surrounding the attack on both the Ambassador's residence and the CIA's diplomatic compound in Benghazi, Libya on September 11, 2012. The film stars John Krasinski, James Badge Dale, and Pablo Schreiber as members of the CIA's Annex Security Team who helped to repel the attackers and attempted to rescue the ambassador. The film was adapted from the book 13 Hours by Michael Zuckoff.
