Talk:Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull

That's a Webley Mk.VI if anything - the Mk.VI had the square butt and 6" barrel, the Mk.IV had a 4" barrel and bird's head grip.

If you look closely at the weapon the warhead is clearly that of the RPG-2...the 7's predecessor. However I will admit the launcher itself has been modified to look like a 7's launcher with the addition of the rear blast cone as opposed to the 2's straight pipe configuration.

Just saw the movie 2 nights ago. The launcher is definitely a -7, and more specifically, the Chinese Type 69 version (all of the "Russian" weapons in this movie are actually Chinese copies, including the Tokarevs, the AKs, and the RPG). However, it looks like the rocket used in the launcher (which would have been inert and non-functional, as is customary in cinema) is the PG-2, which only the RPG-2 can fire. It's more likely they'd use the wrong rocket (which is easier to do) than visually modify the launcher. But that's not an RPG-2, and not just because of the cone in the back; you can tell the body of the launcher and everything else are completely unlike that of the -2. That would be a hell of a modification.

I don't know who changed the M2 Carbine into an M1A1 Carbine but that isn't right. While being fitted with a 30 round mag doesn't make it an M2, it would be an M1 not an M1A1. An M1A1 is the paratrooper folding stock model. - Gunmaster45

What is İrina Spalko's sword?

The KGB? agents pulling their Tokarevs on Mutt are clearly carrying either real Russian TT-30 or TT-33s OR more likely Polish Wz48s as they are more common in the states. (The serration pattern on the slide matches Russian or Polish guns.) They are also fully cocked with fingers on the triggers. Eek!

I'm dubious that the "Used in the film" props were used in the film. All of the M1 Carbines seen in the film stills have bayonet mounts, which were added after WW2, however the framed prop does not. - Rugerlvr

Getting soft in old age?

Indy does not fire one shot in anger the entire movie, except some rocket. How can this be?

"Directed by Steven Spielberg," that's how. You know, the modern one who airbrushed the guns out of ET rather than the old one who let Indy remember he'd bought a gun to a swordfight. Evil Tim 16:12, 14 July 2011 (CDT)

Too right mate. What is with the whimpification of all things?

In real life you shouldn't fire a gun in anger, that's just stupid, if someone fired a gun in anger around me I would take it away from them. :P - Mr. Wolf 18:36, 14 July 2011 (CDT)
