SDV DRAGUNOV?
- Yep.....(later) Nope.
- I've left a comment on this already, but probably not. We'd have to ask MPM2008, but I don't think any real SVDs were being imported to the U.S. at the time, and Hollywood armorers were basically limited to making due with what was on the civilian market. There are some Valmet M78 rifles configured to look like SVDs, which appear in Commando and Predator. Considering that Stembridge Gun Rentals supplied the weapons for those films and this one, it's a safe bet that the "Dragunov" in this film is one of those same guns.
TOKAREV
I removed the comment about Chinese T-54s being a better choice of the film based on having the safety catch - the safety catch is required for US import, real Chinese military Tokarevs (T-51, T-54 or M20) don't have it. - Nyles
M60E3
I reverted the M60E3 entry as just because an M60E3 has an Assault lenght barrel it is not a M60E4. the E4 model is an Improved E3 with several re designed internal and external parts.
- Also, did the M60E4 even exist in 1985, when the movie was made? I've been under the impression it was introduced in the 1990s (at least that's what Wikipedia says, but we all know they can't be trusted). -MT2008 00:45, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
The only thing I trust on Wikipedia are the pages I have made. Heck, there are some popular firearms websites that I just cannot trust due to the level of bad information. the E4 shows up in my Military Firearms guides long after RamboII came out. Heck a Marimont Light Machinegun might be more accurate. Think of am M-60 with everything possible lightened and the forward grip being just an M-16 pistol grip. Rockwolf66 01:35, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- Isn't it Maremont? ;) MPM2008
M57 Yugo pistol
The pistol in the film sure looks like an M57 (with the pistol grip being longer than a TT-33 or Norinco Clone), but look at the grip serrations on the back of the slide. The Yugo M57 has diagonally slanting grip lines, the pistol that Vihn is holding has vertical grip lines. He is not holding the same pistol (unless the M57 changed designs midway). MPM2008
revolver?
