‘Battle Royale’ is a 1999 Japanese novel by Koushun Takami. It was later adapted into a live action film. Takami later published a 3,000 page illustrated manga version of the story.

The premise of ‘Battle Royale’ revolves around “The Program.” A government sponsored event which forces randomly selected junior high school classes to murder each other until there is only on survivor. Each student is given a duffle bag containing a randomly selected weapon. There weapons may be guns, knives, clubs, or toys. Many of the characters’ weapons differ in the three versions.

Ingram MAC-10 9mm

An Ingram MAC-10 9mm is the primary weapon used by villain Kazuo Kiriyama.

In the novel it is suggested that Kazuo’s weapon was in fact a blade as his first three victims were stabbed. It is from either Hiroshi Kuronaga, Ryuhei Sasagawa, or Izumi Kanai that the MAC-10 was obtained.

In the manga these three victims were killed with the MAC-10.

In the film Kazuo’s weapon is a paper fan. He quickly obtains an Uzi submachine gun which is his primary weapon. The MAC-10 is not featured.
