Unidentified long gun

During the opening credits some long gun is seen in fragments.

The folding buttstock.
The rear part of the receiver.
The pistol grip and the trigger.
The sniper scope.
The forend.
The front sight.
The muzzle break.

My guess is that this is a modified Ruger Mini-14, rather like the Bermuda stainless steel Mini-14 GB in aftermarket Choate Folding Stock as seen on the Ruger Mini-14 page, PeeWee055 (talk) 06:20, 25 July 2016 (EDT)

Thanks a lot! This one seems to be just the same as the screen gun, right? Greg-Z (talk) 06:30, 25 July 2016 (EDT)
Yeah, that seems to be the one! PeeWee055 (talk) 07:07, 25 July 2016 (EDT)
Well the film gun has a non-standard (though seen elsewhere) lengthened flash-hider on the gun, not the 'GB' flash-hider as is on the Mini 14 in the gun image, and indeed is typically seen. Minor detail but still. StanTheMan (talk) 16:54, 25 July 2016 (EDT)
I'll add a screenshot where the flash hider of this rifle is seen. Greg-Z (talk) 04:29, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

M16A2

I don’t think this is an A2, but rather an M16 aka SP1 (flat "slab side receiver") with A2 style handguards used to impersonate the M16A2. Note the missing A2-style brass deflector and the SP1+A1 style carrying handle, PeeWee055 (talk) 06:20, 25 July 2016 (EDT)

Thanks, I'll correct this entry. Greg-Z (talk) 06:25, 25 July 2016 (EDT)

Other

Tough to tell but the Desert Eagle might be an earlier Mark I since it appears to have the MK I safety. The PPK is a PP since it has the longer slide (visible in that last cap). Suppressed pistol looks like a Glock variant to me (possibly a G17). Might wanna just call the Rifles & Assault Rifles section just 'Rifles'. Everything else looks tip-top though.

Thanks, I'll correct DE and Walther. What concerns the suppressed pistol, I think that it has external hammer, but I need to look again at all screenshots from this scene to be sure. Greg-Z (talk) 04:29, 26 July 2016 (EDT)
Additional images of Payne's suppressed pistol. Really a Glock. Greg-Z (talk) 11:54, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

Slide is definitely a Glock, the length makes it a G17. StanTheMan (talk) 16:19, 26 July 2016 (EDT)
