Bravo Two Zero is a 1999 Gulf War film that originally aired on the BBC. The film chronicles the heroic mission of British SAS troopers dropped behind Iraqi lines during the First Gulf War (Operation Desert Storm 1990-1991). This unit later became the most highly decorated British Military Patrol unit since the last Boer War (1899-1902). Sean Bean starred in the film as SAS sergeant Andy McNab.

The following weapons were used in the film Bravo Two Zero:

Assault Rifles

Colt AR-15 Sporter-1

Baz (Ian Curtis) carries a Colt AR-15 Sporter-1 fitted with a Cobray CM203 flare launcher. At various points in the film the rifle has the standard M16 front sight, no sight, or an AKM type front sight mounted to the gas block. It is possible that the rifle was damaged during production, and an AKM front sight was added from one of the many Vektor R4s mocked up as AK-47 type rifles.
