Spy Game is a 2001 espionage thriller starring Robert Redford as Nathan Muir, a veteran CIA operative on the verge of retirement who must devise a way to free Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt), a fellow CIA operative and his former protege who was taken prisoner by the Chinese government following a botched rescue attempt. The film was directed by Tony Scott and marked the first onscreen pairing of Redford and Pitt, who had previously worked together on the 1992 film A River Runs Through It.
The following weapons were used in the film Spy Game:
Rifles
Norinco Type 56-1
The Chinese prison guards (including ones played by Logan Wong, Hon Ping Tang, Tom Lung and Chuen Tsou) in Su Chou carry the Norinco Type 56-1. The Vietnamese gunner in the helicopter also fires a Type 56-1 at Bishop and Jiang during the 1975 flashback, as do several Viet Cong. Many of the Lebanese terrorists and Sheik Salameh's men also carry Type 56-1 rifles during the 1985 flashback to Beirut. Some of the East German border guards in the late 1970s flashbacks also carried AKMS rifles.
Norinco Type 56
Several of the Vietnamese soldiers guarding Bishop's target carry Norinco Type 56 rifles.
unidentified rifle
One of the Sheik's entourage is seen with a unidentified rifle.
It appears to be a well-worn AK-pattern rifle, although I cannot determine the exact model. You can see the forward part of the receiver, the forward stock, and the barrel in front of his coat.SAWGunner89 02:08, 17 November 2009 (UTC)
L1A1
The Sheik's guards outside his house carry the British commonwealth variant of the FN FAL rifles, the L1A1, in addition to the Type 56-1s.
AK-47
Bishop (Brad Pitt) fires the AK-47 carried by his South Vietnamese spotter Jiang (Adrian Pang) at the helicopter gunner. A Lebanese terrorist in Beirut is also seen firing an AK-47.
M16A1
U.S. and South Vietnamese soldiers during the Vietnam scenes in 1975 carry the M16A1 with 30-round magazines. U.S. Embassy Marines in Beirut are also armed with M16A1s.
Sniper Rifles
Enfield Enforcer
After Nathan Muir (Robert Redford) convinces S/Sgt. Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt) to assassinate a high-ranking North Vietnamese Army officer, Bishop uses a Parker Hale Lee Enfield T4 Sniper rifle to carry out his task. [[[Image:T4.jpg|thumb|none|500px|]]
SVD Dragunov
In another of Bishop's photos from Beirut, a man is seen with a SVD Dragunov.
Handguns
Walther PPK
CIA operative Tom Bishop (Brad Pitt) carries a Walther PPK during his rescue mission inside the Su Chou prison.
M1911A1
In his imagination, Muir pictures Tom Bishop being shot inside the Chinese prison with an M1911A1.
Machine Guns
MG34
A group of Lebanese terrorists during the Beirut 1985 flashback are seen firing a mounted MG34.
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The Sheik's personal bodyguards all carry Heckler & Koch MP5A3 SMGs as do the Lebanese terrorists who suicide bomb his home. The U.S. Navy SEALs (including one played by James Embree) under Commander Wiley all carry MP5A3s with fore end weaponlights when rescuing Bishop and Hadley from Su Chou prison during Operation Dinner Out.
Other
RPG-7
A terrorist in Beirut during the 1985 flashback fires an RPG-7, seen in one of the photos Bishop takes while undercover as a photojournalist. Somehow the weapon fires despite never being loaded.
