Shooter (2007): Difference between revisions
(The Barrett used in the beginning (M107), was incorrectly identified as an M82. The M107 is identified by the full-lenght scope rail on top. I fixed this.) |

Revision as of 23:32, 28 March 2010
The following guns were used in the movie Shooter
USMC M40A3 rifle
USMC Sniper Bobby Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) engages several ground targets with his M40 sniper rifle at the beginning of the film. In the final confrontation on the mountain, at least one of the enemy snipers in the mountain appears to use a M40A3 sniper rifle with an artic paint job. note that this paint job is not done to military specs.
Barrett M107
In the opening scene in Ethiopia, Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) is seen firing both a Barrett M107 and a M40A3 sniper rifle. The M107 is distinguishable from a Barrett M82 by the full-length scope rail on top. It is also used by Sanders to assassinate the Archbishop of Ethiopia. Even though this rifle is a semi-automatic in real life, in the movie, the editing makes it appear that Swagger racks the charging handle between shots (like an non blank adapted rifle would require).
- Posted to IMFDB by Weapons Coordinator Ryan Steacy:
- "I was the weapons coordinator on this film. The Barrett used was a real one firing blanks. After multiple strafing runs by the helicopter and the amount of dust and crap floating in the air from all the explosions,the gun did malfunction a few times on multiple takes. Unfortunately the way it was edited together made it seem like he was cocking it after every shot."
DShK
One of the targets Swagger snipes in the beginning of the film is seen on a DShK heavy machine gun mounted on the back of a truck.
Browning M2
In the Ethiopia sequence at the beginning of the film, several Browning M2s can be seen mounted on Humvees and enemy vehicles.
M29 81mm Mortar
Several M29 81mm Mortars can be seen being used to fire on Swagger's and Fenn's position in the beginning of the film.
AK Variant
Many of the enemy forces in the beginning of the film can be seen with some kind of AK-Variant.
M4A1
There are several appearances of M4A1s in the film, one with an M68 Close Combat Optic and M203 grenade launcher is seen being used by Donnie Fenn (Lane Garrison) to fire at a helicopter. They are also used by the mercenaries during the firefight on the ranch, one which is commandeered by Swagger, and one, possibly the same one taken from the ranch shootout, with a red dot optic and suppressor is used by Swagger at the end of the film.The M4 at the end of the film appears to have an EOTech with a 4x Magnifier mounted behind it, and not an Aimpoint Sight, as was on the one that he took from the farm. You can see the rifles optics when Swagger goes under the house with his M1911 out.
Cobray 37mm Launcher
Donnie Fenn (Lane Garrison) has an Cobray 37mm Launcher on his M4A1 in the beginning of the film which he uses to destroy an enemy vehicle while trying to fight off the helicopter.
Cheytac (Cheyenne Tactical) M-200 Intervention
This hefty rifle fires the extremely ballistics efficient .408 Chey-Tac round. As a result, this rifle, with correctly manufactured ammunition, can be effectively used out to distances of approximately 1.5 miles. The rifle is usually used with a ballistic computer that calculates bullet trajectory based on atmospheric conditions. Although not visible in the still frames provided, during the movie scene a ballistic computer can be seen immediately to Swagger's right. While it is possible, one must realize that the average grouping for even the best rifle (the M-200 being high on that list) at this range will be approximately 20 inches at 2000 yards. Keeping that in mind, the scene was obviously used to showcase Swagger's supernatural ability to snipe.
Remington Model 700PSS
A tactical police heavy barreled version of the Remington Model 700, the Remington 700PSS was purchased by Bob Lee Swagger in the sporting goods store when he is on the run (having Memphis buy the rifle). Next it is used at the river scene were Swagger is training Special Agent Nick Memphis to shoot under pressure. Later it is used by Memphis to provide cover fire to Swagger as they infiltrate the ranch in Virginia. Finally it is used by Swagger in the snow covered mountain scene. The secret service snipers at the president's speech use these rifles as well.
Glock 17
Police Officer Stanley Timmons (Alan C. Peterson) wounds Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) with a Glock 17. After being wounded Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) then strips a Glock 17 from young FBI Special Agent Nick Memphis (Michael Pena).
Remington Model 341
Upon leaving Sarah Fenn's (Kate Mara) home, Sarah gives Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) most likely a Remington Model 341 or a Springfield Model 86C which he later uses with a homemade silencer to kill Memphis' captors.
RPD machine gun
During the firefight at the ranch, two gunners in a helicopter can be seen firing RPD machine guns. This information was confirmed by Ryan Steacy, the weapons coordinator from the film.
Double Barreled Shotgun
When we first see Senator Meachum (Ned Beatty), he can be seen skeet shooting with a Double Barreled Shotgun.
Colt M1911A1
Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) uses the M1911A1 to tie up some loose ends.
Heckler & Koch G36C
Colonel Johnson's (Danny Glover) two bodyguards at the end of the film carry Heckler & Koch G36Cs.
Heckler & Koch G36KE
Heckler & Koch G36KEs are carried by the four guards outside Sandor's (Rade Šerbedžija) hideout.
Beretta 92FS
Used by a police officer on Bobby Lee Swagger (Mark Wahlberg). Swagger later confronts ex-sniper Michael Sandor (Rade Šerbedžija) with a Beretta 92FS.
Remington 870 Express
When Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) goes to Donnie's wife Sara Fenn (Kate Mara) for help, she can be seen with Remington 870 Express in the doorway to which Swagger mentions that it's too long to draw quickly before she lets him into the house. A sawed off Remington 870 Express is seen when Sarah shoots a intruder in her home before being captured by Jack Payne (Elias Koteas), it is unknown if this is a second shotgun or if Sarah cut the stock and barrel off the one from earlier (most likely the former since it is unlikely that she would cut down the stock, sand it smooth, contour it and re-stain and finish it). The Short shotgun is seen during the mountain scene when Payne has it taped to his hand and is using to hold Sarah hostage when he taunts Swagger by telling him he has no shot.
SIG-Sauer P226
When Payne (Elias Koteas) captures Sarah (Kate Mara), he can be seen with a SIG-Sauer P226 fitted with a suppressor.
Walther P99
After Swagger (Mark Wahlberg) gets the information he needs out of Sandor (Rade Šerbedžija), Sandor grabs a Walther P99 from his bookshelf and commits suicide with it.
Taurus PT92
Swagger takes a nickel plated Taurus PT92 with pearl grips off Senator Meachum (Ned Beatty) and throw it on the ground near Sarah. Sarah then picks up the handgun and uses it to shoot Payne (Elias Koteas).
