Looks like it's actually a [[Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy"]] instead of a [[Winchester Model 1873]]. So I've changed it. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 00:38, 23 September 2010 (UTC) | Looks like it's actually a [[Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy"]] instead of a [[Winchester Model 1873]].

I don't know..... the 1866 rifle has a securing brace on the handguard. the 1873 rifle dosn't have that, nor does the one in the movie..--[[User:TravisTee|TravisTee]] 16:56, 18 October 2011 (CDT) | |||

I'll try to rent and screencap this eventually. -GM
It seems strange that the army uses G36Cs in this movie, as they are in Britain, and the rifle of the British Army is the SA-80. Any thoughts on this? -Dannysaysnoo
Well, G36s are pretty common for British police, and Royal Ordnance did own H&K for a period of time, so I would imagine there would be no shortage of G36s in the UK. I believe the British even considered using G36 to replace SA-80 at one time before H&K come up with SA-80A2. But yeah, the regular British Army should be using SA-80s.
- You can't always rationalize things like this in films. In all likeliness the G36 was chosen just because it was A> What was available and or B> because it looks cool --AdAstra2009 19:44, 31 December 2009 (UTC)
Winchester Model 1866
Looks like it's actually a Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy" instead of a Winchester Model 1873. So I've changed it. --Jcordell 00:38, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
