The Morita rifle series is a series of fictional weapons created for the movie Starship Troopers, with obvious influence from the M41A Pulse Rifle from 1986's Aliens.
Morita Mk I Rifle
The full-sized Morita rifle is used by Mobile Infantry standard/enlisted soldiers with the Morita Carbine being carried by fleet pilots and officers (See below). The weapons themselves are built around Ruger Mini-14/AC-556 rifles with an underslung short-barreled Ithaca 37 shotgun. The weapons utilize a modified Muzzelite MZ-14 bullpup stock to house the Ruger Mini-14/AC-556 rifles and the Ithaca 37 shotguns (for the Morita rifle only). The Morita rifles and carbines in the film also feature a muzzle brake from the M60 GPMG.
This weapon is used by the following actors in the film:
| Actor | Character | Title | Date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Casper Van Dien | Johnny Rico | Starship Troopers | 1997 |
| Jake Busey | Ace Levy | Starship Troopers | 1997 |
| Dina Meyer | Dizzy Flores | Starship Troopers | 1997 |
| Various Actors | Mobile Infantry troops | Starship Troopers | 1997 |
Morita Mk I Carbine
A version of the Morita Rifle that is issued to Federation Pilots, as well as Officers and Senior NCOs of the Mobile Infantry (also known as the "Hero Carbine"). It is the same Ruger AC556-based Muzzelite Custom stocked rifle as the full sized Morita, except that it is shorter and missing the Ithaca Model 37 shotgun.
This weapon is used by the following actors:
