HK416
I believe that the HK416 might be a M4A1 Carbine based on the triangular front sight and the handguards, which feature round vents instead of slots. --Markit (talk) 19:56, 5 December 2019 (EST)
Yeah, that's a Mk 18 rather than a 416. Spartan198 (talk) 21:57, 5 December 2019 (EST)
Colt Carbine
Hence Bond's background in SBS, I feel inclined to believe it's Colt Canadian C8. But I'm not too sure, if anyone can help me identify it, please do. These are behind the scene and further promotional shots.
It’s not a C8 because it’s got the newer 5 position adjustable stock. The C8 (all the Colt Canada/Diemaco variants do) so it’s probably a short barrelled M4. Probably a 933. --cool-breeze (talk) 03:58, 12 October 2021 (EDT)
- His background doesn't matter, the armorer is going to use what he has. Besides, Colt Canada doesn't sell to civilians including film armorers, so there's no actual way for such a weapon to be used in a film.--Mandolin (talk) 08:33, 12 October 2021 (EDT)
- Considering that there is a bit of product placement in the film - it hasn't been officially confirmed, but I noticed a lot of Beretta weapons making appearances - the use of a M4/C8-type weapon instead of something newer and "cooler" may be a narrative nod to Bond's British special forces background. --Markit (talk) 13:08, 12 October 2021 (EDT)
- While the real life prop rifle is likely not a true C8, it's definitely the intent that the rifle is a C8 within the universe (like every case of a 92FS "standing in" for an M9, etc). As an aside, I loved that Bond kept grabbing mags off henchmen and actually reloading at reasonable intervals (really loved the film as a whole too). Alex T Snow (talk) 02:47, 16 October 2021 (EDT)

Just wondering if someone has a source of it being around in 2007. I can only find references to it as far back as 2013. There are other compacts from 2011, but they're always the 7.62mm and usually wooden furniture. Temp89 (talk) 20:01, 9 November 2021 (EST)
