The Manchurian Candidate is the 2004 remake of John Frankenheimer's classic political thriller of the same name.

The following weapons were used in The Manchurian Candidate:

Heckler & Koch MP5
The Heckler & Koch MP5 is seen in the hands of the men riding in the helicopter that tosses gas grenades onto Marco's position during the ambush.
Walther PPK
Rosie (Kimberly Elise) is seen pulling a Walther PPK on Marco when he tries to strangle her.
Remington 700PSS
Near the end of the film, Marco is seen assembling a Remington 700PSS rifle fitted with a scope and suppressor.
