IMI Jericho 941

A Two-Tone IMI Jericho 941 is used by Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) throughout the movie, first to threaten Patric (Charlie Hunnam) when he inadvertently reveals their secret plans and later to kill Jasper (Michael Caine).

Luke points his IMI Jericho at Patric.

Two police officers who pull over Theo's car before being shot by Luke are armed with Beretta 92F pistols.

M4A1 Carbine

An M4A1 Carbine, fitted with an Elcan optical sight, is first seen in the hands of a 'Fish' gunman when Theo Faron (Clive Owen) is kidnapped by the resistance group. Later, during the action sequence at the Bexhill refugee camp, a female 'Fish' is also seen with an M4. While it would be more likely in reality for the gun to be a Diemaco C8A1 Carbine, Colt Canada does not sell to civilian companies (including film armorers) so it would be impossible to use one in the film, unless Imperial Defence Services provided them thier own "MG4" carbines.

Another M4A1 carbine, equipped with a M203 grenade launcher, tactical light and a AN/PEQ-2 IR designator, is used by Luke (Chiwetel Ejiofor) when his forces arrive at the Bexhill Refugee Camp. He uses it during the gunfight with the British Army, and wounds Theo (Clive Owen) as he and Kee escape.

At the Bexhill refugee camp, one of the resistance fighters carries a G36C, which he fires at approaching British troops. Shortly after, a British Army squad leader who orders his men to cease fire is also armed with a G36C. Prop G36Ks can also be seen in the hands of refugees during a funeral march.

PKM

As Theo and Kee leave the scene of a battle between the Fishes and the British Army, a single soldier can be seen wielding a Russian PKM Machine gun. For some strange reason, it has the belt-magazine removed.

PKM in British use?, shouldn't the armourers know that would go against NATO standards having a ComBloc weapon?
