The Intrac engraving appear to make these Maadi rifles. --Ben41 (talk) 01:33, 10 January 2014 (EST)

There are at least two types here, AKMs (as you said most likely Maadis from the markings) and Type 56s with the pig sticker bayonet blade removed but with the bracket remaining, but also fitted with an AKM slant muzzle brake. File:HeroesS3E11-AK-1.jpg, File:HeroesS3E11-AK-2.jpg and File:HeroesS3E11-AK-5.jpg definitely show Type 56s, whereas I think the rest are AKMs. --commando552 (talk) 04:40, 10 January 2014 (EST)

M14?

Here's another shot, not sure if it helps much due to the guy standing in the way, but you can see part of the stock and barrel.

Maybe an M14, but the magazine appears to be curved. Possibly a Ruger AC556? --Ben41 (talk) 04:06, 20 January 2014 (EST)

My guess is that any perceived curve is an optical illusion and that it is an M14 (is hard to tell though with the guys hand obscuring most of the mag. I don't think it can be a Mini 14 variant as you can just make out that the bayonet lug is mounted to the front sight block which is located immediately behind the flash hider. Bayonet lug variants of the M14 have the front sight mounted farther back down the barrel. --commando552 (talk) 12:44, 20 January 2014 (EST)

Thanks guys, I'll just label it as a M14 on the page. Unfortunately there are no other good shots of it in the episode so I couldn't say for sure.--Alienqueen11 (talk) 18:39, 20 January 2014 (EST)
