The Happening
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Happening is a 2008 psychological thriller/horror film written, produced, and directed by M. Night Shyamalan. The film stars Mark Wahlberg as science teacher Elliot Moore and Zooey Deschanel as his wife Alma, who find themselves trying to survive a mysterious event that is causing people across the Northeastern United States to inexplicably commit suicide.
The following weapons were used in the film The Happening:
Handguns
Colt M1911A1
A Colt M1911A1 or similar variant is briefly seen when survivalists in Fairfield, Nebraska load up weapons.
SIG-Sauer P226
A Philadelphia police officer uses his duty sidearm, a SIG-Sauer P226, to kill himself when the event affects Rittenhouse Park. This pistol is picked up and used by others to commit suicide. A P226 is also used by a U.S. Army military policeman, PFC Auster. This is incorrect- while some SIG-Sauer P220 series pistols are issued in the United States military, they are extremely limited, and it is unlikely that a common military policeman would have them. Instead, a military policeman, or any of the other military branches' police units (i.e. USN master-at-arms, USAF security forces) would be equipped with the standard Beretta M9 pistol.
Shotguns
Mossberg 500 Field
An unidentified man inside an old house uses a Mossberg 500 Field Shotgun to shoot a teenager who joined Elliot's group when they he tries to break into their home to search for food.
Remington 870 Field
Also in Fairfield, NE, a Remington 870 Field Gun with ribbed 28" barrel and sporting wood leans against a wall.
Smith & Wesson 916A
A Smith & Wesson 916A is seen in the survivalists' arsenal.
Winchester Model 1300
A Winchester Model 1300 is also seen in the garage.
Rifles
AK-47
During the segment showing men loading weapon in Fairfield, Nebraska, one of the survivalists sitting near a cooler loads an AK-type rifle.
AR-15-Style Rifle
One of the men in Fairfield, Nebraska loads an AR-15-style rifle. It is a heavy barreled 16" carbine that doesn't have the step down found on the M4-style barrels. It is seen only very briefly, preventing more specific details from being made out.
Iver M1 Carbine
Some arm themselves in Fairfield, Nebraska as they watch the crisis unfolding on the television set. An M1 Carbine with parts from the Iver Johnson Enforcer Pistol (with late model heat shield and wooden foregrip) is seen on a table near the television. A second Enforcer-style M1 Carbine is seen leaning against a trunk near the cooler.
MGC M16
One of the men locks and loads an MGC M16 replica rifle updated with an A1 "birdcage" flash hider, A2 handguards, and a 30 round magazine.
Unidentified Bolt Action Rifle
An unidentified rifle is seen in the survivalists' arsenal. Like several other weapons in the scene, it is seen very briefly and impossible to identify.
Unidentified Bull-Barreled Rifle
The man holding the AK-47 in Fairfield also has a bull-barreled rifle near his legs. Again, it is impossible to identify anything other than the general type of weapon.
Unknown Rifle
An unidentifiable rifle is used by another survivor in the boarded-up house visited by Elliot's group. It appears to be a heavy barreled .308 rifle of some sort with no front sights. Being that we only see the end of the barrel, it could be anything from a Remington 700 to a Thompson Center Arms Contender Rifle.
