In the second picture [taken from the film] under the '''L1A1 SLR''' entry...the actor standing next to Glyn Baker is Brook Williams...his character's name in the film is Samuels. He was a good friend of Richard Burton [and personal assistant] and appears in bit parts in a number of Richard Burton films. He is the same mercenary that RSM Young calls a "f***ing abortion" because he can't get up and then RSM Young shoots at him [while he is laying on the ground] during the training scenes. BTW RSM Young uses a ''Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic; M1911A1'' in those scenes...yet this is not mentioned. | In the second picture [taken from the film] under the '''L1A1 SLR''' entry...the actor standing next to Glyn Baker is Brook Williams...his character's name in the film is Samuels.

McTaggartts silenced pistol
Is the pistol fitted with a suppressor used by Sgt.Jock McTaggart a Colt M1911A1?It's certainly not a suppressed P38 as used by Lt.Shaun Fynn in the same sequence.
- the problem is that we never get a good look at the pistol. I was screen capping this movie and the lack of a clear shot of Jock's gun was vexing. MoviePropMaster2008 22:50, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
Bazooka is not an M20
The rocket launcher is a Blindicide, either an RL-83 or RL-100, without the shield attached. Here's a few websites that feature photos. Unfortunately, only one is in English.
Bangladesh Military Site(English)[1]
Russian Site[2]
Personal site of someone who served in Belgian Military[3]
- Phillb36 Thanks for the info. For the record, I'm not the one who ID the launcher as an M20. I knew it was a Blindicide but am finishing this page of kinda slowly. Thanks again. :) regards. MoviePropMaster2008 05:52, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
We don't need a Cyanide container entry
Though it kills Simba soldiers it is not a weapon in the conventional sense. If that were the case, we would be listing all the containers holding explosive chemicals in Die Hard with a Vengeance or Blown Away. MoviePropMaster2008 04:16, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
Roger Moore's Handgun
The handgun used by Roger Moore in the London scenes [when he kills Randy and when the mafia hitmen come after him at the club] is not a Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic; M1911A1 as indicated. It is a SIG P-210. This is especially evident when he points it in Richard Burton's face when Burton is at the door of the loft above the club.
Brook Williams
In the second picture [taken from the film] under the L1A1 SLR entry...the actor standing next to Glyn Baker is Brook Williams...his character's name in the film is Samuels. He was a good friend of Richard Burton [and personal assistant] and appears in bit parts in a number of Richard Burton films. He is the same mercenary that RSM Young calls a "f***ing abortion" because he can't get up and then RSM Young shoots at him [while he is laying on the ground] during the training scenes. BTW RSM Young uses a Pistol, Caliber .45, Automatic; M1911A1 in those scenes...yet this is not mentioned.

Roger Moore: SIG P-210
Richard Harris: MkII Grenade and a Smith & Wesson short barreled revolver [looks to be a 3-inch] - it appears to be a Model 27 - but again [like Burton's Colt] I know it is a Smith & Wesson but it could be one of a number of models with a shrouded ejector rod.
