Talk:Six (2017 TV Series): Difference between revisions
The lower receiver specifically is usual. It seemingly has all the correct markings of a legit 416 lower, yet has a slanted magazine well as opposed to the 416's straight mag well. Now, the lower designed for the A5 model does have a slanted mag well and HK does make it in black as well, but it also has an ambi bolt catch which this one clearly lacks. I thought maybe it might be a P416 lower, which has similar pictogram selector markings, but the fencing around the mag release isn't right for one. These inconsistencies have me utterly stumped.

:To me it looks like it could just be a standard lower. Here is a more side on view of the same guy with (I assume) the exact same gun, and it looks like a standard HK416 lower:[[File:Six S01E01 HK416 1.jpg|thumb|600px|none|]]There is a slight slope to the bottom of the standard HK416 mag well, and I think that the front-on angle in that first image is exacerbating it. If it was an A5 I imagine it would look even more sloped from this angle. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 18:38, 6 February 2017 (EST)

Missing
Taliban fighters in Afghanistan had various AKs that I couldn't really ID.
One of the SEALs used a suppressed MP7A1 during the night raid.
Rip had a SIG P226 on his bedside table in Africa and later uses it against the militants attacking the school.
The African militants also had AKs.

Also, are there any better views of this shotgun:Error creating thumbnail: File missingPretty sure that is it a Mossberg Cruiser, but can't tell if it is a 500 or 590 without seeing the front end. --commando552 (talk) 05:43, 28 January 2017 (EST)
It could be a Maverick as well, we can't even tell that from that image. StanTheMan (talk) 15:11, 28 January 2017 (EST)
SIG 516?
Any other scenes of this that actually shows that it's a SIG rifle and not a 416? Excalibur01 (talk) 11:55, 6 February 2017 (EST)
One would think Walt, being the deuteragonist of the show, would be given one of the actual 416s instead of a stand-in. Spartan198 (talk) 17:21, 6 February 2017 (EST)
Unless it is not a "stand in" but rather they intended his weapon to be a non non-416, either just to make it slightly different to everyone else's so he stood out slightly more, or to imply that he made a choice to use a different weapon out of personal preference. --commando552 (talk) 18:09, 6 February 2017 (EST)
Or another possibility just occurred to me, it may be a case where SIG paid to feature their rifle more prominently, like the Beretta 92FSs in Lone Survivor. --commando552 (talk) 18:11, 6 February 2017 (EST)
