Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles is the 2008-2009 television series that continued the story of The Terminator film series. The series aired on FOX for two seasons and starred Lena Headey as Sarah Connor, who with her son John (Thomas Dekker) try to prevent the creation of Skynet, the master computer program that is responsible for the destruction of the human race and the rise of the Terminators. While being chased by other Terminators sent from the future, Sarah and John are assisted by a reprogrammed Terminator named Cameron (Summer Glau) as well as the future resistance member Derek Reese (Brian Austin Green), who is the brother of John's father Kyle. The series is set after the events of Terminator 2, but in an alternate timeline than the one seen in Terminator 3.

Barrett M82

Derek Reese (Brian Austin Green) uses a Barrett M82 at the P Alto Military Prep School scouting and shooting a T-888 Terminator (Patrick Kilpatrick). Derek Reese (Brian Austin Green) shows John Connor (Thomas Dekker) the ammo for his Barrett M82 and what he says is a "Raufoss Mk 211 round, tungsten core, armor piercing, high explosive, incendiary, hits with the force of a 20mm cannon" with a grey tip but the Mk 211 round is identified with a green tip in Season 2 Episode 5: Goodbye to All That. Actually the Raufoss Mk 211 round is a Norweigan Anti-Material round that comes in at least 3 different color patterns; Green, Green with Grey tip and Solid Grey/White. The reason for this is because the rounds are manufactured under license by a few other companies as well. I used the Raufoss round many times over in the sand. Surprisingly, Derek Reese gives a good summary of the round. -GySgt James

This is a small arsenal of weapons that Sarah Connor (Lena Headey) kept under her bed in Season 1 Episode 7: The Demon's Hand.
