:- Uh, we know that. The question was how did they get ahold an an actual HK G11? And I would agree with FCM, it's probably a non-firing dummy or some other fake prop.

I've been wondering about this gun for a while so did a bit of research. Apparently the physical gun used in the film is a prop weapon made by the armourer Michael Papac. However, it was made referencing a real G11 (not sure if casts were taken or just measurements and replicated) that was leant to him by H&K. H&K heavily scrutinised the plans and production of the prop gun, and it had to be given to H&K once the filming was complete, hence why it has never turned up again. I would imagine it is currently in a museum/display room somewhere standing in for a real G11. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 11:06, 11 December 2011 (CST) | |||
Revision as of 17:06, 11 December 2011
I'm pretty sure that the Mini-14 listed in the should actually be an AC-556 (the automatic version of the Ruger Mini-14), based on the appearance of a selector switch. See input from this discussion: http://www.uzitalk.com/forums//showthread.php?t=46732
- If you feel that it is so and you have evidence; then go ahead and correct it :) --AdAstra2009 20:36, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
What about the Inox having a frame mounted safety? The picture of an Inox show's a slide safety like all other Beretta 92's/96's. Wouldn't a frame mounted safety be a Taurus?
- It's just the angle and the screenshot quality; it does actually have a slide-mounted safety, so this weapon is a Beretta 92FS Inox. -MT2008 01:27, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
MP5 w/ odd flash hider
Anyone know the kind of flash hider (I am sorry if this is the incorrect terminology) the MP5 on the lower right has? --Milkovich 16:27, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
- Not something from the factory. Looks a lot like the flash hider on the MP5 in End of Days. -MT2008 01:25, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
Museum displays
4 caps of the museum armoury:
--Milkovich 19:13, 24 August 2010 (UTC)
First pic looks like some kind of shorthand history of U.S. infantry rifles, with the Winchester lever actions, what might be a Krag-Jørgensen carbine, a M1903 Springfield, an M1 Garand, and a post-war M1 Carbine.
Second pic is all handguns, a bit hard to tell but the wheelguns all seem to be Colts (I wouldn't be sure of that, though, especially the bottom revolver). The semiautos I'm even less sure about, but I'd confidently say that the bottom pistol's a Glock.
Third pic has what I believe is an M16A2 (or one of those A2-handguarded-A1s), then an FN FNC, FN FAL, and a AKM/Type 56 without stock. StanTheMan 01:00, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
- There is a stock; it's folded under. So AKMS? The Wierd It 12:17, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
- - Or a Type 56-1, perhaps. Either way, indeed, underfolder stock there. StanTheMan 17:04, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
- The Krag looks more like a Trapdoor Springfield carbine. --funkychinaman 02:22, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
- Well, there is a bit of shadow there, but looking close, I don't see the side magazine that would be on a Krag, so, indeed could be a Trapdoor. Good one. StanTheMan 03:36, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
And now we have a fourth pic - lets see, MP5A2, MP5K (I think), Steyr AUG 16" Barrel, MP5A3, UZI, Ruger AC556F, what appears to be two sawn-off shotguns, another MP5K, full-size pump shotgun with pistol grip, and FN FAL Para (folding stock). Can't tell much about the bottom long-gun in the display. The rifle on the mannequin might be a Mauser K98k, and at the bottom of the frame in front of that, three MAC-10/11s.
Hopefully some of my guesses are accurate. :b StanTheMan 17:13, 25 August 2010 (UTC)
G11
G11???
I'm wondering how the grim bloody hell the armorers of this movie got their hands on a g11....... anyone have any idea?
- It can just be a shell, or a toy, for all we know. It doesn't actually fire in the movie. --funkychinaman 00:43, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
The G11 was modified to be the "ray gun" in the film.
