Rifles and Assault Rifles

M16 / AR-15 Sporter-1

A crate with an M16 assault rifle is seen in the illegal weapon store in "The Waiting Game" (S09E07). The upper receiver seems to be slickside while the lower is slabside, so the exact model is supposed to be an original M16 or, maybe even more likely, a Colt AR-15 Sporter-1.

Colt AR-15 Sporter-1 (SP1) - 5.56x45mm

An M16 in the crate.

L1A1

An L1A1 assault rifle is seen in the illegal weapon store in "The Waiting Game" (S09E07).

The handguard is seen.

The barrel is seen.

M1 Carbine

An M1 Carbine with the sniper scope is used by the assassin (Mark Sproston) in "The Assassin" (S09E09). This is not the takedown M1 Carbine that is used in Seasons 2, 4 and 7, but a standard version, fitted with the sniper scope.

The Modern Manufactured version of the M1 Carbine, with standard stock, from Auto-Ordnance (affiliated with Kahr Arms and Thompson Arms) - .30 Carbine

Heckler & Koch HK91

A Heckler & Koch HK91 rifle is one of Edward Hapgood's (Christian Burgess) guns in "The Assassin" (S09E09). The gun lacks the paddle magazine release lever that allows to differ it from military Heckler & Koch G3. The slim handguard is a feature of both HK41 and early HK91 models but HK91 is significantly more common gun.

Heckler & Koch HK91A2 with fixed stock - 7.62x51mm NATO

For reference: Heckler & Koch HK41 with slimline handguard - 7.62x51mm NATO

Hapgood's guns: a Heckler & Koch HK91, and a bolt action sniper rifle.

Bolt Action Rifle

The barrel is seen.

Mauser Sporter

A Mauser-style bolt action sporting rifle with a sniper scope is one of Edward Hapgood's (Christian Burgess) guns in "The Assassin" (S09E09). This rifle looks more like sporterized military rifle than a purpose-build sporter gun. It has a straight stock, so the base rifle was not a Gewehr 1898 or a Karabiner 98k.

For comparison: Waffenfrankonia Wurzburg Gewehr 98 .30-06 "Cigarette Sporter" fitted with Bohler Stahl barrel. Many Kar 98k rifles would wind up in similar configuration after WWII.

Hapgood's guns: a Heckler & Koch HK91, and a bolt action sniper rifle. Note the straight stock and the military style bolt handle.

Hapgood shows the rifle to Jim Bergerac.
