Revision as of 17:38, 21 April 2017
The following weapons were used in the film Hotel Rwanda:
Handguns
Beretta 92
A Beretta 92 pistol makes several appearances in the film in the hands of many characters. This particular Beretta is the first model produced (and the sole reason why someone should never list a Beretta as a "Beretta 92" when they can't tell if it is an F or FS.) and it is somewhat strange to see it so actively used during this event (which only takes place in 1994.) The first of these users is a Rwandan Army commander who draws his sidearm and orders Paul Rusesabagina (Don Cheadle) to execute his friends for being "Tutsi Cockroaches", but he manages to bribe the commander into letting them go. One of the Canadian UN peacekeepers under Colonel Oliver's (Nick Nolte) command also is seen armed with a Beretta 92. Another random Rwandan officer is seen waking up Paul somewhat unpleasantly with the barrel of his 92. The last of these users is General Bizimungu (Fana Mokoena), who fires his 92 into the air as he orders his men to rush back to the hotel to stop the Rwandan attackers.
Beretta 92FS
While the Beretta 92 is the most prominently used Beretta, a Beretta 92FS is seen used by an Interahamwe trying to arrest Paul when the soldiers invade the hotel. Its strange form makes it look like a flashpaper or airsoft replica.
Browning Hi-Power
Colonel Oliver (Nick Nolte), commander of the UN peacekeeping forces, is seen using a Browning Hi-Power as his sidearm throughout the film. This is accurate as he is a Canadian officer and the Canadians used the Browning Hi-Power as their sidearm at the time.
Webley Mk. VI
An Interahamwe militiaman shoots out the tires of the U.N truck trying to transport refugees with a Webley Mk. VI revolver, and then shoots down one of the Rwandan Army soldiers.
Shotguns
Remington 870
An Interahamwe militiaman is seen with a Remington 870 shotgun, although it is hard to determine at such a distance.
Double Barreled Shotgun
An unknown 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun with exposed hammers is seen in the hands of one of the Interahamwe militiamen.
Single Barrel Shotgun
One of the Interahamwe militiamen is seen armed with a Single Barrel Shotgun made by Baikal of Russia.
Submachine Guns
Uzi Carbine
A Belgian army officer is seen armed with an Uzi Carbine. This weapon is a civilian gun though and would not have been issued to actual Belgian troops, so it is an inaccuracy.
Rifles
Lee-Enfield No.1 SMLE Mk.III
An Interahamwe militiaman is seen with a Lee-Enfield No.1 SMLE Mk.III.
Berthier Mle 1916 Carbine
An Interahamwe militiaman is seen with a Berthier Mle 1916 carbine.
Automatic Rifles
AK Variants
The AK variants are the most common weapons of the Rwandan soldiers and the Rwandan Army, and come in many different models including Egyptian Maadi AKMs (modified with Russian parts kits), Polish dark-wood kBks, and Norinco Type 56s.
Vektor R4
Rwandan Army soldiers carry Vektor R4 assault rifles. This is historically accurate as R4 rifles (South African made versions of the Galil ARM) were imported for use with the Rwandan National Army in 1992. Some of the Kalashnikovs in the film are actually Converted R4 rifles, as indicated by the Galil magazines and machined receivers.
FAMAS F1
The French soldiers of the European Intervention Force that arrive to evacuate foreign expatriates are armed with FAMAS F1 rifles.
FN FAL
Belgian soldiers are largely seen using FN FAL Paratrooper rifles with folding stocks. In reality, Belgian troops were armed with FN FNC rifles.
Heckler & Koch G3A3 (South African configuration)
Both Rwandan soldiers and the Pakistani UN peacekeepers under Colonel Oliver's command are armed with South African-configuration Heckler & Koch G3A3 rifles. This is accurate as the Pakistani army used the G3 at the time, though their versions were built in Pakistan.
Machine Guns
FN MAG-58
FN MAG-58s are seen mounted on vehicles of both the Rwandan Army and the Belgian intervention force. One Rwandan soldier is seen carrying one as his primary support weapon.
Rheinmetall MG3
An MG3 is seen mounted on a French jeep, probably as a stand-in for the AA-52 machine gun that was standard issue for French forces in 1994.
Browning M1919A4
Browning M1919A4 machine guns are seen on some Belgian jeeps, and some rebel jeeps as well.
Browning M2HB
Browning M2HB machine guns are seen mounted on French jeeps and are used by the Rwandan Army soldiers to take shots at the rebel soldiers as they try to shoot the refugees crossing the border.
Other
M26 "Lemon" hand grenade
An M26 hand grenade is attached to a Rwandan Army officer's uniform, and is seen on another army officer's belt.
Mk. 2 hand grenade
A Mk. 2 hand grenade is seen on the officer's belt.
RPG-7
During the night, Interahamwe militiamen are seen firing an RPG, likely an RPG-7 at the hotel. Luckily for the refugees inside, only a storage room is destroyed.
