::The E2 is just an M14 put into a pistol gripped stock and bipod.  The Flash Suppressor just slips over the M14 flash hider and screws into place.  It was only there to control muzzle climb and blast during "prolonged auto fire".  The M14 was always (in Nam) a select fire weapon.  But the E2 can be used semi auto as a 'sniping weapon' as can any decent battle rifle.  [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 22:56, 1 May 2009 (UTC)

MG42

I do not believe that was the MG-42 in the movie. Instead I think it was the CEMTE Ameli SAW which, though externally similar to the MG-42, instead is not as long and fires the 5.56 round.

It was more likely a Rheinmetall MG3, which is a similar weapon except in .308 NATO; the Ameli has a carry handle on top and the one in the movie didn't, so it's probably an MG3.

Recoiless Rifle

The shoulder-fired anti-armour weapon appears to be an M18 57mm recoilless rifle. The peculiar side-mounted pistol grip and forward monopod are typical of the M18.

M14

I don't think the M14 was the E2. Isn't the E2 the failed Squad Automatic Weapon version? The M14 sniper rifle is the M21. It's useing an M-14E2 stock wich makes it an M-14E2. RW66
