The following weapons appear in the 2010 remake of the film Red Dawn:

Red Dawn is the 2010 remake of the 1984 film of the same name that starred Charlie Sheen and the late Patrick Swayze. In this film, the United States is invaded by a combination of Chinese and Russian forces instead of the Soviets, and the setting has moved from Colorado to Spokane, Washington.

AKM (Modified to resemble AK-103)

The standard assault rifle of the People's Liberation Army Ground Force (PLAGF) in the film appears to be the AKM, visually modified with the addition of plastic furniture and AK-74-style muzzle brakes to resemble the AK-103. This is an error since the Chinese no longer have any Kalashnikov-style rifles (including the Norinco Type 56 and Norinco Type 81) in frontline service, but currently use Norinco QBZ-95 and QBZ-03 rifles.

DSC: The soldiers in the movie might be rear-guard troops, in which case they'd probably have second-hand weapons.
