G.I. Jane: Difference between revisions
G.I. Jane is a 1997 military drama directed by Ridley Scott and stars Demi Moore as a US Navy Intelligence officer who is recruited by an ambitious US senator to become the first woman to complete an elite training program for a special combined reconnaissance unit for the US military. The cast included Viggo Mortensen, Jim Caviezel, and Scott Wilson.
The following weapons were used in the film G.I. Jane:
XM177-type carbines are the main weapons carried by LT Jordan O'Neill (Demi Moore) and the majority of the applicants in the SEAL CRT program. During the Libyan mission, the weapon is carried by Master Chief Urgayle (Viggo Mortensen) and other members of the team. The XM177s in the movie all have M16A2 or Model 715-style receivers, while the real XM177 variants only had M16A1 or SP1-type receivers. Rifles similar to these have appeared in many other movies and TV shows, such as The Rock and Seven Days. During the training, a weapons instructor describes the gun as a "CAR-15, military designation M4", but the guns shown in the movie are quite clearly not M4s.
The Heckler & Koch MP5SD3 is the chief weapon carried by Lt. Wickwire (Boyd Kestner) during the Libyan mission. The weapon is also seen carried by a US Army Ranger during the recovery mission.
An M203 Grenade Launcher is seen attached underneath O'Neill's XM177 during the Libyan mission as well as carried by the SEAL applicants during the obstacle course.
The M60E3 is seen being assembled by O'Neill and other members of her team during the SEAL training. It is also the chief weapon of Cortez (David Vadim) during the Libyan mission.
An FN Minimi is seen being fired by an instructor as the applicants navigate the SEAL obstacle course. In a deleted scene, Jordan is seen firing the weapon on a firing range.
A DShK is seen mounted on a Libyan truck that fires on the team. It's hard to tell, but this is most likely a mocked-up Browning M2 variant, like nearly all "DShK" HMGs seen in Western productions.
During the SERE training, a Browning M2HB heavy machine gun is seen mounted atop a Humvee in the encampment where Jordan and her team are taken prisoner.
Master Chief Urgayle (Viggo Mortensen) uses a Heckler & Koch SR9(T) during the Libyan mission. The SR9(T) in this movie, like all SR9 rifles seen in American films, is actually a HK91 converted to SR9(T) specifications (note that it lacks the forward assist, which is a feature of the factory SR9 variants). While being chased by Libyan soldiers, he booby traps the weapon with a M67 grenade.
A Libyan soldier pulls an M1911A1 before being taken out by Urgayle. A US Navy helicopter crewman opens fire with an M1911A1 as Jordan and the team make their way to the helo.
