 Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
SEAL Team Six: The Raid On Osama Bin Laden is a 2012 dramatization of the raid by US Navy SEALs on the Bin Laden compound in 2011. Unlike the similarly-themed Zero Dark Thirty, this film focuses primarily on the mission itself and its participants. Originally titled Code Name: Geronimo, the film was directed by John Stockwell and premiered in the US on the National Geographic channel on November 4 and on Netflix on November 5.
The following weapons were used in the film SEAL Team Six: The Raid On Osama Bin Laden:
Rifles
Heckler & Koch HK416
The majority of the US Navy SEALs seen in the film are armed with Heckler & Koch HK416 carbines, notably seen during training as well as the actual raid on the Bin Laden compound. The rifles are fitted with suppressors, EOTech sights and AN/PEQ-15 ATPIALs. Judging by the receiver markings, some of the HK416s used in the film are actually 416 uppers fitted to standard M4A1 lower receiver units. Among the SEALs who are seen using the HK416 include Cherry (Anson Mount), Stunner (Cam Gigandet), Mule (Xzibit) and the Lieutenant Commander (Robert Knepper).
Colt M4 carbine
M4 carbines can be seen in stock footage of US troops in combat in Afghanistan. Because these are actual US military personnel and not actors, it can be assumed that these are most likely standard M4s (safe/semi/3-round burst) rather than M4A1s (safe/semi/auto).
Norinco Type 56-1
Al Qaida fighters can be seen in bin Laden's Pakistan compound carrying Norinco Type 56-1 rifles with underfolding stocks and Bakelite magazines.
AKM
A Taliban fighter inside bin Laden's compound can be seen firing what looks like an AKM right after the commencement of the raid.
AKMSU
An AKMSU, distinguishable from the AKS-74U by its ribbed 7.62x39mm magazine, can be seen being loaded up for use by Osama bin Laden following the commencement of the raid.
Shotgun
Benelli M4
Trench (Freddy Rodriguez) is seen with the Benelli M4, which is used to breach the doors of the compound.
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P226 E2
The SIG-Sauer P226 E2 is the sidearm carried by many of the SEALs in the film. During the preparation for the raid, one SEAL is seen checking his SIG, where the "E2" is readily visible on the slide.
Beretta Cougar Inox
One of the CIA agents watching bin Laden's compound is stopped by Pakistani military police, who find what appears to be a Beretta Cougar Inox in his van.
Machine Guns
FN MK 48 Mod 0
A FN MK 48 Mod 0 is fired by Mule (Xzibit) during the opening firefight with Taliban shooters.
GAU-17/A Minigun
GAU-17/A Miniguns can be seen in helicopter door mounts in stock footage.
Rocket Launchers
RPG-7
An RPG-7 rocket launcher can be seen on a paper target in the killhouse during the SEALs' training for the raid.
Grenades
M84 Stun Grenade
M84 stun grenades are used by the SEALs during the raid.
