Billy Zane

[jfowl31]

I don't exactly know why it popped into my head, but its an interesting tidbit, and a good excuse to watch a cheesy movie.

If you all didn't know, Billy Zane carries a HK based sniper rifle in the movie SNIPER. I don't know for sure if its a PSG-1 or MSG-90 and HK pro thinks its some variation of an SR-9... but like I said, its a good reason to watch a cheesy "guy" movie. "1 shot 2 kills."

Any other movies featuring the HK or Cetme line of rifles?

this may belong in general discussion, but as long as it stays related to Cetmes/HKs, it should be kosher.

Check out "Salvador" with Jim Belushi and James Woods. Real film footage of Hk's shooting students in El Salvador. Many close ups. Having been in that area it is the way things are.

I don't know if you would say they were featured in these but, "The last king of Scotland,and the blood diamond had there far share of them in it.

Miami Vice movie. The bad guys in the big shootout next to the end.

"Heat" Val Kilmer has some type of HK sniper rifle at the empty drive in movie theater:rockon:

Curious how the gun pictures show a clipped lower, but the close up shows a push pin lower. ;)

[wandering_ronin]

I believe there were some brief shots of G3's in "Blackhawk Down".

Thats right. Some of the "skinnys" were using them.

[Lon Moer]

Damn, the Billy Zane pictures are hard to find.
Here's all I've found so far

[rustypirate]

The new movie "The Kingdom" is full of HKs. G3s and MP5s.

[Geilt]

You know, it almost drives me crazy. I'll be watching a nice fun movie like Sahara for example. Lots of guns, funny one-liners, good music. In the middle of some random action scene I'll have to stop the movie, back up a little bit and single frame advance to make sure I caught what model guns they're using.

"Lethal Weapon"(1) - hard to see, sorry

[rustypirate]

Lon Moer, I will bite.....

What was so infamous obout that picture?

I see a couple of M4s, an MP5K, AK47, and the muzzle of a G3 poking in from the right, but I don't see anything "infamous"......

Check out the guy in the middle with the M4. Now look at the flattop. See anything missing? No rear sight. I'm not sure if this is what he was talking about, but it's the only odd thing I noticed.

:thumbup: M4 with no sight.:icon_biggrin:

[nowhereman]

youtube Somalia, theres about one in every 10 AK's.

[rustypirate]

Awwww.....

Them is ac-tor-s... They can hit anything they shoot at even without sights.

[Lon Moer]

I found some more screen shots from "The Kingdom".

Is there no rear sight for the AR in the top right?

[Old Jimmy]

Maybe that star went to Front Sight Acadamy? Oh wait, that place is for pistols!!!
LMAO

[ctdemolay0405]

the kingdom a good movie? worth renting?

[vista461]

I haven't seen it yet, but my co workers say it was good

[vista461]

Wasn't there a guy with an HK type rifle in the beginning of the last Die hard movie? When it came out Yahoo had like the first minute or so to get you to go see the movie.

[SteelCore]

Blackhawk down, Kingdom, are the recent ones I recall for G3...also ... dang...I'm drawing a blank, but hey...we've been down this thread B4.

[Karl E. Hungus]

anybody remember the end of the movie. "the professional". thats a classic.

youtube linky (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ryaU8ZOLEM)

pretty much all HK... and something else with a wooden stock that i cant identify... anyone?

[hunter_la5]

I've got that movie on dvd and I love it, even if it the story is completely ridiculous


... and something else with a wooden stock that i cant identify... anyone?

I freeze-framed it and it looks like a Ruger AC-556 (mini-14) to me, but it is kinda blurry

[rep30cal]

I believe that is a Beretta BM-59, basically a shortened Garand that is mag
fed and in 7.62x51 cal. Sweet rifles in my opinion.

ETA, when the cops are running into the building after the first
shootout, there is a cop with a mini-14/AC 5.56 and it goes by
pretty fast. I could have swore that a cop in the hallway had
BM-59 in that shootout, maybe a scene later than the clip
shows.

[bspring]

The beginning of Kingdom is a little slow and dry, but the later half of the movie is really good.

"Leon " ( the Professional) is also a favorite of mine.
Just bought the deluxe edition a few months ago.

[ctdemolay0405]

bought 7 movies today (all collectors editions, so like 14 dvds worth of crap) for 60 bucks on amazon: the kingdom (i did it cause of the recommendations here) red dawn (same, and the family guy parody i saw last night reminded me) all 4 Die Hard movies and superbad. never seen the kingdom or red dawn, but i usually just buy movies, not rent, its a collection that easier and cheaper than guns (at times) :airtight:

[k98k792]

I just got my DVD copy of "Millerscrossing", the thinking mans gangster movie. One of the Coen brothers best!
"...the old mans still an artist with a Thompson!"
