Based on the best-selling book Lone Survivor: The Eyewitness Account of Operation Redwing and the Lost Heroes of SEAL Team 10 by former U.S. Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell, the film stars Mark Wahlberg as Luttrell, who was a member of an ill-fated SEAL reconnaissance team that was ambushed in the mountains of northeastern Afghanistan during Operation Red Wings on June 28, 2005. The film also stars Taylor Kitsch , Emile Hirsch , Ben Foster and Eric Bana , and went into limited release on December 25, 2013, with a wider release on January 14, 2014.
The following weapons were used in the film Lone Survivor :
