Kong: Skull Island is a 2017 monster action-adventure film directed by Jordan Voght-Roberts and is the second installment in the Godzilla-Kong cinematic universe after 2014's Godzilla. The film follows a surveying team escorted by the United States Army sent to explore Skull Island only to encounter the titular creature, Kong. Set in 1973, all the weaponry and equipment are from late in the Vietnam War era. The cast includes Tom Hiddleston, Brie Larson, Samuel L. Jackson, John Goodman, and John C. Reilly.
The following weapons were used in the film Kong: Skull Island:
WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Handguns
Colt 1902 Military Pistol
LTC Preston Packard (Samuel L. Jackson) carries what appears to be two Colt M1902 military pistols in a dual shoulder holster rig. He is seen pulling one on Bill Randa (John Goodman). The use of this pistol is an odd choice, since it was never adopted by the US military, and would be at least 45 years old by 1973, the time period for this film (although some M1911A1s, produced as early as 1924, and other designs such as the M1917 Revolver still in use were slightly older.) It is noteworthy, however, that officers often still carried their own 'unofficial' sidearms, even in the 70s.
Colt M1911A1
The M1911A1 is the sidearm carried by Lt. Hank Marlow (John C. Reilly). A young Marlow wields the pistol in the film's beginning.
Browning Hi-Power
Former SAS Captain James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston) carries a Browning Hi-Power "Type 73" pistol in a shoulder holster throughout the film.
Mauser C96
The Mauser C96 is wielded by Gunpei Ikari (Miyavi), a Japanese Zero pilot, in the film's beginning.
Rifles/Carbines
M16A1
US soldiers as well as some scientists are seen with the M16A1. Captain James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston) carries the M16A1 throughout most of the film.
M16/SP1
San (Jing Tian) as well as Captain James Conrad (Tom Hiddleston) sometimes are seen armed with M16/SP1s. Conrad's rifle appears to change to this model instead of the M16A1 in various scenes.
M14 Rifle
US Army MPs in front of the White House are seen armed with the M14. Packard (Samuel L. Jackson) also is seen carrying an M14 rifle, sometimes with a scope mounted.
AK-47
Captain Earl Cole (Shea Whigham) is seen carrying a AK-47-type rifle. He explains to Bill Randa (John Goodman) that he took it off a 50-year-old farmer who fought for the NVA who had surrendered after his village was destroyed.
Machine Guns
M60
The M60 machine gun is seen mounted as door guns on the Bell UH-1 Iroquois (nicknamed "Huey" due to its original designation, HU-1) helicopters. Later, Reles (Eugene Cordero) is also seen carrying an M60.
M60D
The M60D Machine Gun is briefly seen door-mounted on other UH-1 Huey helicopters.
Browning M2HB
One of Packard's men also is seen loading and firing a Browning M2HB atop an enormous Triceratops skull.
Browning M2 Aircraft
Both Houston Brooks and Lt. Hank Marlow are seen operating twin .50 caliber Browning M2 Aircraft machine guns that appears to be scavenged from the ball turret of a B-29 Superfortress.
GE M134 Minigun
A GE M134 Minigun is seen on a Huey helicopter.
Shotguns
Ithaca 37
What appears to be an Ithaca 37 is used by Houston Brooks (Corey Hawkins).
Launchers
M203 Grenade Launcher
Slivko (Thomas Mann) is seen with an M203 grenade launcher fitted to his M16A1.
M79 Grenade Launcher
Captain Cole (Shea Whigham) also carries an M79 grenade launcher.
M8 Flare Pistol
Packard is seen using an M8 Flare Pistol to launch a flare.
Orion Flare Gun
Mason Weaver (Brie Larson) uses what appears to be a Orion Flare Gun painted black to pass it off as a period correct flare gun.
Other
M9A1-7 Flamethrower
One of Packard's men can be seen carrying and firing the M9A1-7 Flamethrower.
M26 Hand Grenade
In the face of one of Skull Island's giant "Skull Crawlers", Captain Earl Cole (Shea Whigham) is seen holding two M26 hand grenades.
M18 Smoke Grenade
The M18 Smoke Grenade can be seen on the Huey helicopters.
M83 Smoke Grenade
The M83 Smoke Grenade can also be seen on the Hueys.
