M16
The Deacons pick up several crates of weapons from longshoremen. The main weapons the use are M16s. I'm not sure if they are A1s or A2s. Will figure it out once I have screen caps.
I know it's not a great screen cap, but help identifying the model of M16 would be greatly appreciated.
M60
Another weapon they pick up from the longshoremen, but never carry, is a M60.
M26 Hand Grenade
They also pick up a crate of M26 hand grenades, which causes concern among the Deacons.
Luger P08
Marcus Clay Forest Whitaker is seen with a Luger P08. Presumably the gun is his father's or Otis's.
Unidentified pump action rifle
Marcus' father and later Marcus are seen with a pump action rifle. It looks to be a small caliber, maybe .22.
M1 Carbine
One of the Deacons is seen with an M1 carbine, possibly a service weapon brought home from Korea.
M1 Garand
A deacon is seen with a M1 Garand.
High Standard Flite King
A Deacon holds what appears to be a High Standard Flite King. Which would be anachronistic for the time the movie was set.
