Icarus is the sixth independent film directed by (as well as starring) Dolph Lundgren. Released to DVD and Blu Ray in June of 2010, the film stars Lundgren as a former KGB agent-turned-mafia hitman who must protect his family after he is targeted for execution by unknown forces.
Icarus' sidearm of choice for most of the movie is a Beretta 92FS Inox. Due to a continuity error, his Beretta tends to become a nickel-plated Taurus PT92 (often in the space of the same scene).
The assassins who attempt to kill Icarus and his ex-wife Joey (Stefanie von Pfetten) at the hotel are armed with suppressed Walther P99s, one of which is taken by Joey and used to save Icarus. He later shows her how to use the weapon.
During the flashback to his days as a KGB officer, Icarus is seen using Makarov PM (which actually appears to be a non-firing rubber stunt version).
Error creating thumbnail: File missingCommercial imported Makarov by Baikal, called the IJ-70 - 9x18mm Makarov. It features an adjustable rear sight, not seen on the military Makarov pistol. Also the finish is inferior to the original Makarov PM.Error creating thumbnail: File missingA close-up of Icarus' Makarov PM in a flashback. Note that the weapon seems to be a rubber stunt version; the hammer appears molded into the slide, an indication of the casting process.
Shotguns
Remington 870
During the shootout at Kerr's farm, Icarus (Dolph Lundgren) grabs a Remington 870 and uses it for most of the shootout. Due to a continuity error, it continually alternates between a standard police riot model and a Slung Gun (recognizable by the rifled sights).
M4A1 carbines fitted with Knight Armament Company RAS forearms and vertical grips are used by Vadim (Bo Svenson) and his henchmen. When the M4s are issued from his gun safe in the climax of the film, many of them clearly have the "Stowaway" pistol grip only found on the K3B-FT, the Olympic Arms copy of the M4. Also, the non-firing M4s in the movie are actually Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replicas of the M4 (see below).
Some of the non-firing M4A1 carbines seen in the climax being used by Vadim (Bo Svenson) and his henchmen are actually Classic Army M15A4 airsoft replicas of the M4. They are recognizable by their white-painted fire position markings on the lower receivers (which no real AR-15 manufacturer uses).
During the flashbacks to Icarus' days as a KGB officer, a milled receiver AK-47 rifle is seen carried by another KGB agent. The weapon appears to be a Hudson model gun replica.
Heckler & Koch MP5A3 submachine guns fitted with Surefire forearms, flashlights, sound suppressors, and red-dot sights are used by the hitmen who attempt to kill Icarus' daughter Taylor (Katelyn Mager) in his house.
Heckler & Koch UMP submachine guns (either .40-caliber of .45 ACP models) are used by the CIA black ops personnel in the movie, fitted with vertical grips, green laser sights, and red-dot sights.
