Our Girl is a 2013 dramatic television film originally broadcast by the BBC. It follows Molly Dawes (Lacey Turner), an 18 year old British girl, through her decision to join the British Army and her training as a Combat Medical Technician. It was succeeded by a 2014 TV series which covers her deployment to Helmand province in Afghanistan.
The following weapons were used in the film Our Girl (2013):
Rifles
L85A2
The L85A2 is the most common weapon featured in the film, being the standard issue rifle of the British armed forces. Despite appearing to be set in the current day (as indicated by the used of Multi Terrain Pattern (MTP) camouflage and the Mk IV Osprey body armour) all of the rifles are fitted with the standard polymer handguards and SUSAT or iron sights, as opposed to the contemporary configuration which is normally fitted with a railed Daniel Defence handguard and ACOG sight.
L85A1
During parade scenes the majority of the rifles seen are actually the earlier L85A1 variant, all fitted with iron sights.
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III*
Machine Guns
L86A2
L7 GPMG
FN Minimi
Browning M2HB
