Am I the only one who noticed that this movie's subtitle ('1 ruthless crime lord, 20 elite cops, 30 floors of chaos') is a bit off on two accounts? On two occasions the whole KOPASKA-team of supposedly 20 members is visible (when they exit the van and when they storm the building) and I count just 17 (incl. Lieutenant Wahyu). Also, when I count the number of floors (both on the cover and in one of the first scenes), there's not 30, but rather 23, resp. 15. Probably just artistic freedom but I thought it was funny enough to share with y'all, [[User:PeeWee055|PeeWee055]] ([[User talk:PeeWee055|talk]]) 16:38, 28 May 2013 (EDT) | Am I the only one who noticed that this movie's subtitle ('1 ruthless crime lord, 20 elite cops, 30 floors of chaos') is a bit off on two accounts?

Glock 17
That is definitely not a Glock the criminal is pointing at the cop, you can see the pistol clearly has a hammer. It looks more like a full-size SIG-Sauer variant.--SmithandWesson36 19:39, 10 October 2011 (CDT)
Definitely a SIG Sauer, possibly either a P226 or a P220. I'm doubting if the gun in the second screenshot of the Glock 19 is a Glock 19 was well. It looks to have a curved shape rather than the blocky shape of the Glock. That could just be because it's a mid firing screenshot though. --cool-breeze 14:54, 11 October 2011 (CDT)
I just watched the trailer and the gun in the second screenshot of the the Glock 19 looks a lot more like a Glock in live action, rather than what it looks like in the picture. --SmithandWesson36 17:10, 15 October 2011 (CDT)
Movie out
I just saw this movie. Does anyone else want to do this before I get started? Excalibur01 07:14, 24 August 2012 (CDT)
Airsoft guns
I thought that to have a imfdb page there has to be at least one blank adapted firearm used. Another thing if all the guns in this film were airsoft guns then I doubt that there would have been a P220 used because there isn't really any SIG Sauer P220 airsoft pistols available. --cool-breeze (talk) 15:04, 8 October 2012 (EDT)
- "If the film is filled with various replica or high quality airsoft weapons than can fool the casual viewer, then it qualifies, if only to shine light upon the fact that the guns are fakes." I think that holds the door open. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:19, 8 October 2012 (EDT)
- Ah right, that must have changed since I read the policies lol. --cool-breeze (talk) 15:23, 8 October 2012 (EDT)
Unknown Revolver
An unknown revolver is used by drug lord Tama (Ray Sahetapy) to execute some captives. It has a ribbed barrel, shrouded ejector rod, adjustable sights, and a Smith & Wesson-style cylinder release. It appears to have six shots. Like all the other guns in the film, it's an airsoft. --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:08, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
- IDed. An almost identical revolver calls itself a Dan Wesson, but I can't seem to find a real Dan Wesson revolver that looks like this. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:35, 12 April 2013 (EDT)
- Unfortunately for me not much was left to be done on this great movie but creating a few missing actor pages. Amongst others, I created the Ray Sahetapy actor page, the guy who wields this airsoft revolver. Any ideas as to on what gun page this revolver should be mentioned, if it should be mentioned at all? Thanks for your feedback, PeeWee055 (talk) 16:28, 28 May 2013 (EDT)
- I think it's supposed to be a Dan Wesson revolver, but has a S&W-style release rather than a Dan Wesson type. Any luck on IDing the shotgun? --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:20, 28 May 2013 (EDT)
- Any thoughts about this airsoft revolver being (at least) visually inspired by the Taurus Model 44? That way, we could mention it in a separate entry as airsoft 'version' on the Taurus Model 44 page, PeeWee055 (talk) 03:49, 29 May 2013 (EDT)
- Aside from the cylinder release, I think it's still pretty similar to the Dan Wesson Model 15. --Funkychinaman (talk) 09:04, 29 May 2013 (EDT)

Unknown Shotgun
Officers are armed with an unknown short-barreled, pump-action shotgun. It does not have an ejection port on either side, but the tube nut does not resemble the Ithaca 37. Maybe a sawn-off Browning BPS? --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:48, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
Special
Unknown grenade
Rama uses an unknown grenade to trigger his exploding refrigerator. I suppose since he was just igniting a refrigerator full of propane (yeah) it could just be a flash-bang as well. --Funkychinaman (talk) 20:31, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
No optics
I've been so used to seeing optics in today's current action movies that the absent of any optics on these 416s is a bit jarring to me when I first saw the movie Excalibur01 (talk) 19:06, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
- That was a little jarring as well, especially since they all had suppressors. I suppose it would make sense to use suppressors when fighting indoors, but it also had the added benefit of not requiring any added sound or muzzle flashes. --Funkychinaman (talk) 19:19, 11 April 2013 (EDT)
Incorrect subtitle
Am I the only one who noticed that this movie's subtitle ('1 ruthless crime lord, 20 elite cops, 30 floors of chaos') is a bit off on two accounts? On two occasions the whole KOPASKA-team of supposedly 20 members is visible (when they exit the van and when they storm the building) and I count just 17 (incl. Lieutenant Wahyu). Also, when I count the number of floors (both on the cover and in one of the first scenes), there's not 30, but rather 23, resp. 15. Probably just artistic freedom but I thought it was funny enough to share with y'all, PeeWee055 (talk) 16:38, 28 May 2013 (EDT)
- The marketing wanted to ramp up the action, which is impossible because this film is already badass.--Dillinger (talk) 03:20, 29 May 2013 (EDT)
Bootcamp rifle
When reading the director blog about their bootcamp, there's this rifle used by Joe Taslim.
Can you tell what rifle did he use? It looks different from the rifle used by thugs.
