Talk:The Siege of Jadotville

Walther MPL

There appears to be a Walther MPL or similar SMG used by one of the rebels attacking the company. I will upload a screenshot when possible, but the time stamp is at 1:26:59-ish. This would be anachronistic as the MPL was not produced until 1963, while the events in this film took place in 1961. DeadpoolDeadcool (talk) 23:24, 15 October 2016 (EDT)

    It's a Franchi LF-57 which actually was used by Congo/Katanga --AdAstra2009 (talk) 04:57, 16 October 2016 (EDT)

AdAstra is correct, it's a LF-57. There were also a couple of Vigneron SMGs in this movie.-- Phillb36 (talk) 07:34, 16 October 2016 (EDT)

"A Bren should do it"?

Anyone else find it odd the sniper chooses to use an open sight, open bolt Bren instead of his No4 Mk1(T)? --Maxman (talk) 09:06, 16 October 2016 (EDT)
