The following guns were used in the film The Wild Geese
SIG SG 510
A SIG SG 510 is seen by one of the mercenaries in the movie.
MAC 10
FN FAL
L1A1 SLR
FN FAL / FN LAR
Some of the mercenaries are firing their rifles fully automatic, which means that those soldiers cannot be using L1A1s since the L1A1 SLR is Semiautomatic Only. Some soldiers seem to have the early model FN LAR (Light Automatic Rifle) which has a shape similar to the L1A1.
