Revision as of 18:05, 24 March 2010
The following weapons appear in the film Children of Men:
Pistols
IMI Jericho 941
A Two-Tone IMI Jericho 941 is used by Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) throughout the movie, first to threaten Patric (Charlie Hunnam) when he inadvertently reveals their secret plans and later to kill Jasper (Michael Caine).
Beretta 92F
Two police officers who pull over Theo's car before being shot by Luke are armed with Beretta 92F pistols.
Heckler & Koch USP
Syd (Peter Mullan) uses a Heckler & Koch USP to threaten Theo and Kee when he decides to betray them for a reward.
Smith & Wesson 5906
Patric carries a Smith & Wesson 5906, which he uses to execute Sirdjan and fire at British soldiers.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch UMP9
Heckler & Koch UMP9 submachine guns can be seen in the hands of 'Fish' resistance fighters and British Army soldiers.
Rifles
Heckler & Koch XM8 (Airsoft Replica)
Airsoft replicas of the H&K XM8 rifle with dummy sights from the G36K appear throughout the movie in the hands of British police officers guarding detained refugees and later at the Bexhill refugee camp.
Might I add, this picture doesn't look much like an airsoft XM8, aren't those REAL 5.56's. Just asking...
M4A1 Carbine
An M4A1 Carbine, fitted with an Elcan optical sight, is first seen in the hands of a 'Fish' gunman when Theo Faron (Clive Owen) is kidnapped by the resistance group. Later, during the action sequence at the Bexhill refugee camp, a female 'Fish' is also seen with an M4. While it would be more likely in reality for the gun to be a Diemaco C8A1 Carbine, Colt Canada does not sell to civilian companies (including film armorers) so it would be impossible to use one in the film. Another M4A1 carbine, equipped with a M203 grenade launcher, tactical light and a AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, is used by Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) when his forces arrive at the Bexhill Refugee Camp.
AK-47
Two types of Kalashnikov rifle appear in the film. Modernized versions with plastic furniture are used by Tomasz (Jacek Koman) and Sirdjan (Faruk Pruti), while older versions with wooden stocks are seen in the hands of refugees throughout the film.
Galil MAR
A Galil MAR (Micro Assault Rifle) is carried by the resistance fighter Patric.
Heckler & Koch G36
At the Bexhill refugee camp, one of the resistance fighters carries a G36C, which he fires at approaching British troops. Shortly after, a British Army squad leader who orders his men to cease fire is also armed with a Heckler & Koch G36C. Prop G36Ks can also be seen in the hands of refugees during a funeral march.
L85A2
British Army soldiers throughout the film are seen carrying L85A2 rifles fitted with SUSAT scopes, most prominently shown when the military invades the Bexhill refugee camp.
Machine Guns
L7 GPMG (FN MAG)
A L7 machine gun is seen mounted at an army checkpoint leading to the Bexhill refugee camp. Another L7 is mounted on the commander's hatch of the Chieftain tank seen towards the end of the movie.
PKM
As Theo and Kee leave the scene of a battle between the Fishes and the British Army, a single soldier can be seen wielding a Russian PKM Machine gun without an ammunition belt or box.
Other
M203 Grenade Launcher
Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) fires an M203 grenade launcher attached to his M4A1 Carbine during the battle at the Bexhill refugee camp.
M136 AT4
A British soldier standing outside of the besieged apartment building carries a M136 AT4 launcher.
Other Guns-
I think one of the Fishes who kidnapped Theo had a Browning Hi-Power. There are also a bunch of other handguns on the table during the meeting in the farm.
