:Yeah, in the movie he says, "This is a CAR-15, military designation M4". Which is, of course, far from true. The weapons I see in the screenshots all have the XM177-style flash hider, but the receiver types vary - some have the M16A1-style receiver, others the M16A2-style receiver.

M4 in this movie?
In the script, someone said "This is the Carb 15, military designator: M4". So I assumed there we'll see an M4 like weapon, but so far, I didn't see anything. During the dialogue, all we see is the barrel end of a Car-15 Excalibur01 10:17, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

Unidentified Rifle - FAL?
I spotted one of the Rangers carrying some sort of 7.62mm rifle at roughly one hour and fifty minutes into the movie. It's just after they get the redirect to their new extract point.
To my civilian eyes it looks like a FAL of some kind. Anyone able to be more specific? I've got screen shots but I'm not sure how to upload them.
