The Wild Geese
The following guns were used in the film The Wild Geese
SIG SG 510
A SIG SG 510 is seen by one of the mercenaries in the movie.
MAC 10
FN FAL
Hardy Krueger as Lt. Pieter Coetze is using a FN FAL.
L1A1 SLR
FN FAL / FN LAR
Some of the mercenaries are firing their rifles fully automatic, which means that those soldiers cannot be using L1A1s since the L1A1 SLR is Semiautomatic Only. Some soldiers seem to have the early model FN LAR (Light Automatic Rifle) which has a shape similar to the L1A1.
R1 Battle Carbine
File:R1 Battlecarbine.JPG This weapon is a chopped down L1A1 SLR with a special sight and is used by the Ex SAS member Tosh Donalson played by Ian Yule who in real life was a Mercenarie in the Congo during the 1960s under the command of Major Mike Hoare. It was said that Tosh was supposed to have this R1 variant as he is ex-SAS which made him special. I heard this weapon was an experimental weapon for South African Paratroops but never got adopted.
R-1 Battle Rifle. Full sized FN-FAL metric variant. Originally wooden stocked later issued with synthetic stock and often camoflaged by the end user with a hand applied series of paints.
