Lone Survivor is a 2013 Afghanistan War action drama directed by Peter Berg (Battleship ). 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 attacked 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. Lone Survivor marked the first of four collaborations between Berg and Wahlberg, three of which were based on actual events: 2016's Patriots Day and Deepwater Horizon as well as 2018's Mile 22 .
The following weapons were used in the film Lone Survivor :
Handguns
Beretta 92FS
A Beretta 92FS pistol is used by Matthew "Axe" Axelson (Ben Foster ) after he runs out of ammunition for his rifle. Though in reality, the pistol currently preferred by the Navy SEALs is the SIG-Sauer P226 Navy , as an operator, an individual SEAL has wide latitude as to what handgun he wishes to use, and the 92FS/M9 is familiar among members of the military. Another SEAL also draws his Beretta on a CH-47 Chinook pilot.
