The Objective is a 2009 science fiction horror film, directed and co-written by Daniel Myrick. The film stars Jonas Ball, Matthew R. Anderson, and Jon Huertas. The story follows a CIA Agent named Benjamin Keynes who, during the ongoing War in Afghanistan, is assigned to a special forces team in order to locate an Afghan cleric.
The following weapons were used in the film The Objective:
Handguns
Beretta 92FS
CIA Agent Benjamin Keynes (Jonas Ball) uses a Beretta 92FS as his sidearm, as well as every member of the special forces team.
Assault Rifles
Colt M4A1 Carbine
CIA Agent Benjamin Keynes (Jonas Ball) and the rest of special forces team, expect for MSG Tanner (Kenny Taylor), can be seen using M4A1 Carbines as their main weapons. Due to a continuity error, they often switch between genuine M4s and "Franken-M4s" which are actually M4 upper receiver units slapped onto Colt AR-15 Sporter II Carbine lower receiver units.
M4 Upper/AR-15 Sporter II Lower
As mentioned previously, many of the special forces team use rifles which are actually M4 upper receivers upon Colt AR-15 Sporter II Carbine lower receiver units. It appears that the armorers didn't have enough genuine M4s (or at least M4s fitted to mil-spec lower receiver units) in inventory, and were thus forced to fit some M4 uppers to an incorrect lower receiver type.
Izhmash AK-47
Ak-47 are carried by some of the local population men in the beginning of the film.
Izhmash AKM
AKMs can be seen used by the Afghan insurgents who ambushed the special forces team on the way to their objective.
Rifles
Springfield Armory M1A
The special forces team sniper, Sergeant Pete Sadler (Jeff Prewett), is using a Springfield Armory M1A.
Machine Guns
FN M249-E2 Squad Automatic Weapon
The special forces team machine gunner, Master Sergeant Tanner (Kenny Taylor), is using an M249 SAW.
Launchers
RM Equipment M203PI Grenade Launcher
M203PIs are mounted on the rifles of SGT Vincent Degetau (Jon Huertas), SGT Trinoski (Michael C. Williams), and SGT Tim Cole (Sam Hunter).
Grenades
M18 Smoke Grenade
Sergeant Tim Cole (Sam Hunter) is the only one to be seen with an M18 smoke grenade.
Explosives
M18A1 Claymore
In the beginning of the film, several Afghan National Army soldiers or anti-Taliban fighters can be seen examining M18A1 Calymores.
