I just watched the trailer. Is that tank an XM8 Buford? Wow.
A-Team -- B-movie?
-Implying B-movie is a bad thing.--AlkoTanko 15:44, 18 January 2010 (UTC)
No shit. I mean come on, the trailer shows one of the team shooting down an F-18 with a mounted machine gun on a tank, WHILE THE TANK IS FALLING OUT OF THE GODDAMNED SKY!!! Even kicking your transmission of disbelief into high gear won't help that.StrikerDelta
- Consider the source material. You've got four special forces guys who expend thousands of rounds of ammo and yet manage to not even wound, much less kill, anyone in five years, all while somehow evading arrest while riding around in a VERY distinctive vehicle driven by an even more distinctive driver. --Funkychinaman 05:13, 17 March 2010 (UTC)
Well dude if you pay attention to the shows audience, it was a helluva a lot of kids on a friday night, they didn't want it to be to violent, but you have to give them this, of there was a tire to be shot it was shot. I think the original was more believable cause it was back in the day no satellites and databases no APB's so its probably hard to catch them if they go all around, nowadays the show wouldn't work just to unrealistic. it looked like a drone not a fighter Yeah its a drone still stupid
it aspost to be an over the top action movies
It's an MQ-1 Predator which is a UAV. Also the film is Fictitious. Made for peoples enjoyment to get away from the real world by watching something impossible done on film. what's the problem with that. moviemaster1993
also lately in films and tv show they have been showing UAV to by mounted with machine guns when they can only by fitted with missiles and bombs.
M4A1
Can anyone post some links or pictures of these rifles used in the Movie? I am really loving those Olive Foregrips and Stock.
UPDATE: Could the M4A1 actually be this?
- no, this is too expensive. Also note their rifles have step-down on the barrels for nubtube fixation.
- Armorers tend to mostly use what they have in inventory already. They're not going to go out and buy all-new ARs (since all such rifles are so similar). It's more likely that these are just regular M4A1s that have been fitted with the olive furniture. -MT2008 00:33, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
- And the M203 is not a "noob tube"... Spartan198 10:24, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- Right, someone's been playing too much MW2 Excalibur01 15:24, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
- And the M203 is not a "noob tube"... Spartan198 10:24, 14 May 2010 (UTC)
The gun is in fact the LWRC M6A1.
About these M4s. I actually saw a picture of the A-Team running away from an explosion, in IMDB, okay and I saw Hannibal's M4 had an EOTech sight on it. And Face's M4 must have been the only one with the Red Dot Sight on it. I didn't want to post the actual picture, due to me fearing copyright, but is it alright if I provide just the link to that picture? Shoockeye7665 12:03, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Hannibal's sidearm
No doubt about it: Hannibal's 1911 is in fact a Para-ord. The slide serrations spell it all out on this one. 6 in back - offset under sights - with 3 in front. Looks like a P14 with front cocking serrations milled, or more likely an S14 with night sights. You even see the finish in the movie, and it almost looks like they've just sprayed over the stainless. Regardless, it's a Para. If not one specific, it could just be a mix-master hi-cap. --Gwhysow 23:11, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
I recently saw a production still in a magazine of Hannibal and he had a shoulder holster on with what appeared to carry a 1911 variant possibly a Kimber Custom II.
Any chance at someone identifing the brand/type of shoulder holster that Hannibal uses? Spades of Columbia
Just saw the movie last night; Hannibal's 1911 is most certainly not a Kimber of any sort. Slide serrations are way off, so who knows. Almost looked like a custom slide from Caspian, but still wouldn't bet on it.
As for the leather shoulder rig, it looked a lot like a DeSantis.
To me the 1911 looks like a Para p-14 or some sort of variant, take a look at one of the promo pics where you can see it in the shoulder holster. Looks like a double-stack grip to me, but maybe my eyes are playing tricks on me.
- I just saw this movie, and I agree that it's not a Kimber Warrior (lacks the Picatinny rail). My guess is Colt XSE. It's also likely that it was a custom 1911 assembled by the movie's armorers; the slide could be Colt, frame could be something else. -MT2008 02:49, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
No it's defiantly a Kimber possibly a Custom some don't have rails. Confirmed by the films armorer the same guy who confirmed Face's Glock as a 17 standard finish.
- I need to see that evidence before you change it back (link please). And if it's not a Warrior, then don't put down that it is. It's better to say "Unknown 1911" if we don't know the exact model. -MT2008 11:03, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
- If I can find it I will post the link but I watched as a special on Sleuth or FX I forget.
It seems that Hannible uses multiply 1911's through out the movie...but it looked as if the 1911 that Lynch said was Hannibles personal weapon that he attempted to frame hannible with at the end of the movie was a Nighthawk GRP or even the enforcer model. But pretty sure he didn't use the same 1911 the whole time. Spades of Columbia
Not a lot of new guns
I am a bit disappointed that they didn't have a wide variety of weapons used int his movie Excalibur01 04:31, 13 June 2010 (UTC)
- I was a little more disappointed by the dialogue, the way in which the action scenes were directed, and the excessive cheese throughout. And I tend to think that kind of stuff matters a little more than the variety of weapons. -MT2008 02:56, 14 June 2010 (UTC)
I saw a guy with an Uzi at the bank, and I'm sure the Sig 552 isn't. It has a ful rail on top.--Mandolin 18:28, 17 June 2010 (UTC)
- I don't think it was a 556; the receiver didn't look like it (mostly around the magazine well). Also, they make continuous rails for the 552. I think it's more likely that they just took a 552, removed the stock, and gave it the upper rail, though I could be wrong. We'll see when the Blu Ray becomes available. -MT2008 13:51, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- I thought it was a 552 the first time. After viewing again I'm pretty sure it was the 556 pistol, it seemed to be using STANAG magazines. And for posterity, I enjoyed the stupid dialog and oozing cheese. C'mon its the A Team its not gonna be oscar worthy, its gonna be guns, explosions, stupidity and deus ex machina. =P Mercer 15:50, 20 June 2010 (UTC)
- The first thing that came to mind when I saw Pike carrying the "552" was (strangely enough) a KAC PDW or a Robinson XCR... though I admit I never paid that much attention to what he was using. :S (BTW, I also enjoyed it for it's over-the-top cheesiness. It's exactly what I was expecting out of an A-team movie.)
It looks just like the Sig 556 pistol...Spades of Columbia
Mini 14
Hannibal was firing full auto, wouldn't that make it an AC-556? Spartan198 12:32, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
He may have just been firing quickly, like they did in the original TV show.
