Talk:Rambo III

Excellent work with the page, it came out great. Thanks for adding his knife and bow, I appreciate it. I also like the trivia section at the bottom. -GM

Do you like the few shots I added? -GM

thanks for the deleted scenes, I don't have them on my DVD. FYI, I don't like the M203 shot that you replaced my shot with. Though it shows him firing, it is blurrier than my shot and I posted the previous shot to get a clearer view of how the weapon was mated together. I'm reverting it back. Also thanks for the RGD-1 grenades, but I've already uploaded the files but haven't had time to do the section yet. Great shots of the Knife and bow! I did have some shots of from the grenade 'field' but yours had better color so I ended up not using mine.

I should have asked before I changed the M203 shot. Your right, yours was better. Sorry I stole your grenade section.

• It should be noted that while the armourers uses MISRs because authentic Russian weapons were unavailable, they are correct for the Mujahideen because Egyptian rifles were supplied to the Mujahideen by the United States.

Moved discussion from movie page

-Actually Norinco made a copy of the M203 40mm grenade launcher to be used with AK type weapons. As does Romania. So this setup is believable -Spectre85

No it is ridiculous ... since the weapon is supposed to be RUSSIAN, not Chinese (since the weapon was taken off of a Spetnaz Sergeant) and the Russians never used M203 or clones of the M203 during this time period. Also I've never heard of a Norinco M203 so please furnish a link or something to prove this. This is very intriguing information.

-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AG-40 Here is a link for the Romanian AG-40 -Spectre85

It's still ridiculous because it's anachronistic. None of these M203 rip off clones were made in the 1980s when the film was shot and set. So the set up is ridiculous. MPM2008

Did'nt the Mujahideen use captured AK's with a M203 attached? Obviously supplied by the CIA with GL's ammo, and the rifle ammo they scrounged for. I do vaguely remember an abs model kit version with wooden stock AK & M203GL that was available in the mid 1980's.

I collected all the ABS kits from the 1980s and I think you're remembering something which did not exist. As for the CIA, except for the Stingers, all the small arms they supplied were Soviet in design.

- As far as the multiple shots from the M203, Rambo picks up at least two grenades from the sand after defeating Sgt. Kourov. With one already chambered in the launcher, he could have three or four shots. He is seen reloading it when he and Trautman are taking cover in the ditch.

I think the loading scene is the FIRST grenade. He never reloads after the battle starts, of course this could have been edited out or not shot. There is another scene mentioned in the film where Rambo picks up an enemy gun and the shot was removed by the editor and makes it look like Rambo magically as a new rifle. MPM2008

T-64

Based on the Western-style fume extractor I suspect the tank is an Israeli Ti-67 with a 105mm gun vice a true T-64, same as was used on The Beast.

Wrong. It's a T-62. Sure they may have added on some mods, but it's NOT a T64. The the Ti-67 from the Beast is a modified T-55, not a 62.

Also, the FN MAG isn't really missing the butt, that's the correct configuration when firing from a mount. The butt comes off and you just attach the rear plate.
