Red Dawn (2012)
Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
Red Dawn is the 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.
The following weapons appear in the 2010 remake of the film Red Dawn:
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.
AKMSU
The AKMSU carbine is used by PLA soldiers and the Wolverines, modified with what appears to be a KCI quad rail system.
Norinco Type 67
What appears to be a Norinco Type 67 machine gun is mounted on a PLA armored personnel carrier.
Browning M2HB
The Browning M2 machine gun is seen mounted on PLA Humvees and tanks.
