How is that a spoiler? Kevin Costner blasts a lot of guys! Hell, I'm not even sure which one you're talking about, and I've seen the movie several times.

Or the dude holding the lady while the crowd watches. He just walks up to that guy, gets the right angle, don't say nothin', and raises that gun and POW!, POW!, blood all over the wall........lady saved.

I have seen several screw-ups in movies, but can't recall any at the moment. Seem like there is one in Terminator 2 with the little shotgun Arnold shoots off the motorcycle.....Good topic. My wife rolls here eyes when I point something like that out in a movie.

Haha, the blonde Calleigh Duquesne on CSI: Miami shot someone with her stainless Kimber, the Kimber logo was identifiable but was blurred somewhat, so it was not exact, but you could tell nonetheless, I paused it, looked at it closely, and my wife was just shaking her head:rolleyes:.:koolaid: She called me "weird" the other night, she saw a car just like one of her old cars that she had, and I pointed out that it was "almost" like it due to that one having aluminum wheels and hers had plastic hubcaps on steel wheels.

i went back and checked but it is there in the opening scene, its only used for a short amount of time though, and he does pull back the bolt handle like you would a bolt action. but the first sniper rifle he used looks like a remington 700 with a camo job on it. the main one he uses though is the cheytac 408.

Yeah... there is a bolt action rifle used in the first scene with a camo print on it. This is what was used for the first part of the scene. I'll take nightrunner's word that it was a remington 700.

Only after the "incident" on the chopper's 2nd pass did Swaggert switch to the 82a1 which was revealed after he picked up a large bag concealing the beast. That is what was used as the primary anti-helicopter weapon.

**BRENT**

To once and for all end the Shooter thing. I found this when looking it up for another thread tonight! Must be something in the air! HaHa. He uses an 82a1 then switches to a 700. Later his main rifle is the Cheyenne Tac m200 in .408. It was a cool moovie either way.

I loved all the Rambos. The newest one was awesome. The scene where he mows down like a hundred people with the machine gun is just pure manly-ness right there.

Yep. They really are out there.

Useless Movie Trivia Info: The Beretta M93R was used to create the gun in the Robocop movie.

:death:
