Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistol A full-auto Rocky Mountain Arms Patriot Pistol is seen being loaded by Kelly's men prior to the night battle and Dr. Karen Ross (Laura Linney ) ends up using it during the fight. The pistol is built up from a Patriot barreled upper receiver on a full-auto Colt XM lower (possibly a Model 614 Export version), which has a partial magazine fence as opposed to the "slab side" receiver found on the SP1 Sporter. Rather than use the short buffer tube on most AR-15 pistol variants, the armorers simply removed the XM177 style buttstock from the standard Carbine Buffer tube and kept it on the firearm. The finishes are noticeably different from the Patriot upper receiver and the Colt lower receiver. These custom firearms appear to have also been used in 1998's Soldier
