26 Years (Korean title: 26년, 26 Nyeon) is a 2012 South Korean historical thriller-drama film based on the 2006 webcomic of the same name by Kang Full. The film is set in 2006, 26 years after the South Korean military violently suppressed the citizens of the city of Gwangju protesting against Chun Doo-hwan's military dictatorship in the Gwangju Uprising. The film follows a group of five people close to those who were killed during the uprising as they plan and execute a plot to kill the still alive and heavily-guarded Chun Doo-hwan (Jang Gwang).

Ma Sang-yeol smashes the skull of a dead protestor with the stock of his M16.

Shim Mi-jin (Han Hye-jin) is given a suppressed Knight's Armament SR-25, which she uses throughout the latter half of the film.

After her earlier shots fail to kill Doo-hwan, Mi-jin presses the rifle's barrel (which is given a close-up in this shot) to the window of Doo-hwan's crashed car so that she can get a powerful enough headshot on him (which still fails to kill him).
