Revision as of 17:35, 22 November 2011
Men of War is a 1994 action film starring Dolph Lundgren as the leader of a group of mercenaries who are hired by a mining corporation to clear the natives off of a Pacific island. As the mercenaries spend more time with the tribe of natives, they must decide whether to go through with their mission or side with the locals against the company that hired them. The film was directed by Perry Lang.
The following weapons were used in the film Men of War:
Handguns
Smith & Wesson Model 686
Jimmy G (Anthony John Denison) carries a ridiculous number of handguns around his body, including a Smith & Wesson Model 686 with wood grips.
Beretta 92FS
Jimmy G (Anthony John Denison) also carries a two-tone Beretta 92FS.
Glock 19
Keefer (Trevor Goddard) uses a Glock 19 throughout the movie, often holding it at some pretty interesting angles.
Rifles
M16A1
M16A1s are used by several mercenaries including Jimmy G (Anthony John Denison), Grace Lashield (Catherine Bell), Nolan (Don Harvey) and Ocker (Tim Guinee). About a half Keefer's men are also armed with M16s (the rest carry Type 56s). Most of them have magazines taped together "jungle style".
M16 with M203 Grenade Launcher
Jimmy G (Anthony John Denison) has an M203 Grenade Launcher attached to his M16A1.
Norinco Type 56
Many of Keefer's men, including Goldmouth (Aldo Sambrell), use Type 56 rifles (without under-folding bayonets).
SVD Dragunov
An SVD is used by Jamaal (Tom Wright), often without a scope attached.
Shotguns
Armsel Striker-12
Nick Gunar (Dolph Lundgren) uses an Armsel Striker 12 gauge shotgun as his primary weapon throughout the film.
Heavy weapons
Carl Gustav Recoilless Rifle
The Carl Gustav Recoilless Rifle is one of the more notable weapons used in the film. It is mentioned by name by both Grace Lashield (Catherine Bell) and Col. Merrick (Kevin Tighe), who correctly point out that it originates from Sweden. The dangers of being behind the weapon whilst it is fired are also shown, with the backblast incinerating one of Keefer's goons as he tries to sneak up on Gunar from behind (a process that also somehow immobilizes him rigidly on the spot). The Carl Gustav is used by Nick Gunar (Dolph Lundgren), Grace Lashield (Catherine Bell) and Keefer (Trevor Goddard).
M60
Blades (Tommy "Tiny" Lister) carries an M60 machinegun, which is taken from him by Nick Gunar (Dolph Lundgren) in one scene.
Grenades
M67 Grenade
M26 Grenade
Unknown
Due to a continuity goof, Keefer's (Trevor Goddard) pistol switches from his usual Glock 19 to another weapon in one scene.
