The following guns were used in the film Black Hawk Down
Browning M2
The opening firefight in Black Hawk Down is a one sided affair in which a local militia leader orders the firing on of a crowd gathered to receive UN food rations while US forces can only look on helplessly. Ironically the weapon used to fire on the crowd, a Browning M2 .50 BMG machine gun, is of US design and manufacture and is also carried on the US Army HMMWVs in the film. Whether the use of the Browning M2 was an intentional choice by the filmmakers, is historically accurate, or was simply a coincidence is unknown.
GE M134 Minigun
During the slaughter of the crowd the Delta in the hovering UH-60 aren't cleared to open up the 6 barreled 7.62x51mm GE M134 minigun hanging off their Black Hawk. GE M134 pylon mounted miniguns are also carried by the MH-6 Little Birds and rain lead in several scenes.
