== Gisele's "Gangsta" draw == | |||
As i recall reading, somewhere, i believe it was in Colonel Jeff Cooper's Gargantuan Gunsite Gossip, he talks about how the Israeli's do a "flat" draw, like Gisele does in the movie, apparently done because as we know, the Israeli's, especially Mossad, teach to carry Condition 3, ie, no round in the chamber, and therefore need to rack the slide to ready the gun for combat, and as such decided that it was easier to do so, while drawing the gun flat, with a 90 degree angle. | |||
Not sure if that was the intention of the director but, it seems logical, that she, being former Mossad, is doing as she was trained. | |||

Revision as of 06:18, 22 November 2012
Vin's shotgun looks more like a Mossberg 590, if you look at the magazine tube and the shape of the trigger guard. It's clearer in the high resolution photo. ZombieKiller 09:45, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
M134 Minigun
Though the weapon is obviously chopped the set up seems to be similar to the one you see in the Dillon Aero publicity videos where one of their miniguns is set up inside a Suburban. --Charon68 19:01, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
Superbowl Trailer
I can't screencap it, but in the trailer they showed during the Super Bowl Hobbs was shown using an M4A1 with an underbarrel M26 SASS DeltaOne 05:42, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Trivia
Rock's vest
make and model of his tactical vest
(A little Google wouldn't have hurt) Looks to be one of the Blackhawk! S.T.R.I.K.E. models. And sign your posts. DeltaOne 04:55, 1 May 2011 (CDT) Google is of no help pas well as some of the military forums I frequent
Another question about the Rock's gear. I can't seem to figure out the make and model of his thigh holster. I have looked around some sites but found nothing that matches.--Westernman1987 14:15, 12 May 2011 (CDT)
Is it me or does the vest look like it's on back to front? --cool-breeze 19:52, 2 May 2012 (CDT)
The SMG identified as a S&W M-76 is actually..
...a Carl Gustav M/45. I updated the page to reflect this information.--Phillb36 20:46, 7 May 2011 (CDT)
M-14
During the Ambush of Hobb's convoy, is it just me, or did the M14 seem to be going rock n' roll? I thought I saw full auto muzzle flash from it. --Charon68 21:15, 22 August 2011 (CDT)
- Putting this photo here until I figure out why cropping a picture causes it to turn up distorted on the site --Markit 20:23, 23 September 2011 (CDT)
- It's possible that the M-14 was going full auto. It was a select-fire rifle. DeltaOne 17:58, 29 September 2011 (CDT)
How did anyone think the M14 had the Aimpoint Comp M3 and swivel mount 3x magnifier? It's very obviously got a scope of some sort. The agent with the M4/M203 has an EOTech and 3x magnifier, but none of the DSS team have Aimpoint sight.--Mandolin 10:03, 6 October 2011 (CDT)
Possible Ithaca Auto & Burglar?
When the crew holds up Reyes first cash house, does the doorman carry an Ithaca Auto & Burglar? I'd get a screen of it, but the shot is rather poorly lit, and i'm terrible at doing screens. The Kaptain 22:00, 9 April 2012 (CDT)
M26 MASS
When exactly does Dwayne Johnson use his MASS in the film? I've watched the movie several times specifically watching for it and I've never seen him fire it, and yet every time I edit this page to reflect that, someone changes it back. Could somebody point the scene out to me? Or better yet, upload an image of him actually using it?--Leigh Burne 06:16, 2 May 2012 (CDT)
He uses it when they are in the parking garage during the robbery scene, if my memory is correct. Bristow8411 16:57, 2 May 2012 (CDT)
- That's just it, I looked out for it specifically in that scene, and I didn't see him fire it once. Maybe I'm blind, could somebody upload a screencap of him actually using it?--Leigh Burne 02:26, 3 May 2012 (CDT)
- I request proof of him using it as well. I've watched the movie several times and I sure don't see him using it in the parking garage. DKS01 03:33, 3 May 2012 (CDT)

Gisele's "Gangsta" draw
As i recall reading, somewhere, i believe it was in Colonel Jeff Cooper's Gargantuan Gunsite Gossip, he talks about how the Israeli's do a "flat" draw, like Gisele does in the movie, apparently done because as we know, the Israeli's, especially Mossad, teach to carry Condition 3, ie, no round in the chamber, and therefore need to rack the slide to ready the gun for combat, and as such decided that it was easier to do so, while drawing the gun flat, with a 90 degree angle.
Not sure if that was the intention of the director but, it seems logical, that she, being former Mossad, is doing as she was trained.
