Kings (2009)

Kings was a 2009 US television drama that aired for 13 episodes on NBC. The series was loosely based on the Biblical story of King David, but the setting moved to a country resembling the modern day United States (the series was filmed in New York City). The cast included Ian McShane, Christopher Egan, Susanna Thompson, Sebastian Stan, and Eamonn Walker.

The following weapons were used in the television series Kings:


Rifles

Smith & Wesson M&P-15 (King Arms Replica)

The Smith & Wesson M&P-15 appears to be the rifle carried by soldiers fighting for the Kingdom of Gilboa including David Shepherd (Christopher Egan). Since these rifles are not seen firing, it's likely that the firearms are King Arms S&W MP15 airsoft replicas.

In "Goliath, Part 1" (S1E01), Eli Shepherd (Michael Mosley) is seen with the rifle. Note the "Military & Police" inscribed over the handguard, suggesting that this is a King Arms copy of a Smith & Wesson M&P-15.

JP-15

The JP-15 appears to be the standard weapon of the Gilboan palace guards.

In "Goliath, Part 1" (S1E01), the ceremonial guards of Gilboa are seen carrying JP-15.

Norinco Type 56-1

Soldiers fighting for the Kingdom of Gath are armed with Norinco Type 56-1 rifles fitted with rails at the top as well as a tactical handguard.

Blaser R93 Sniper Rifle

In "Prosperity" (S1E03), a Gilboa military sniper is armed with a suppressed Blaser R93 LRS2 when dispatched by General Abner (Wes Studi) to assassinate David Shepherd. The integral non-picatinny scope mount gives it away as an LRS2 as opposed to the R93 Tactical2.
