The film was adapted from a novel by Dennis Lehane (the author of Mystic River and whose novel Gone Baby Gone was previously adapted into a film by Affleck). The cast includes Elle Fanning, Brendan Gleeson, Sienna Miller, Zoe Saldana, and Chris Cooper, who also co-starred in Affleck's 2010 directorial effort The Town.

Machine Guns

Browning Automatic Rifle

Joe Coughlin wields and fires a customized Browning Automatic Rifle during a shootout. This particular gun resembles the famous sawed off BARs used by Bonnie and Clyde, and also the ones used in the film Public Enemies. The major difference is that while the barrel is shortened, the one in the trailer also has a shortened stock, making it a sort of BAR "whippet gun." The gun in the trailer also differs in that it appears to have a later model sight.

This is an actual Clyde Barrow cutdown Browning Automatic Rifle. The one in the trailer is similar, but also has a shortened stock and a later model sight.

Coughlin takes cover with his customized BAR during a shootout. While the shortened stock and barrel would certainly make the gun more concealable and lightweight ("lightweight" being a relative term for a 16-pound firearm), controlled fire would probably be a difficulty. Also note the later model sight as opposed to the original WWI model sight, which is considerably rarer.
