Sniper: Reloaded is a 2011 action thriller that is the fourth installment in the Sniper film series. Billy Zane returns from the first film as Richard Miller, the former NSC sniper who was the protege of Master Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Beckett (Tom Berenger). In the sequel, Miller travels to the Congo to track down a rebel sniper being hunted down by Sgt. Brandon Beckett, a young Marine sniper who happens to be the son of Beckett. The film was produced in South Africa, so many of the weapons seen in the film are of that country's origin.
The following weapons were used in the film Sniper: Reloaded:
Sniper Rifles
Lee-Enfield Rifle (sporterized)
Sgt. Brandon Beckett (Chad Michael Collins) uses what appears to be a sporterized version of the SMLE rifle during his mission to take down the rebel sniper.
Mauser 98 Sporter
A Mauser 98 Sporter is used by Martin Chandler (Patrick Lyster) and then Sgt. Beckett. A different Mauser is used by Richard Miller (Billy Zane) as well as a few of the US Marine snipers whom Miller trains at Camp Lejeune.
Truvelo CMS
A US Marine sniper whom Miller trains at Camp Lejeune is seen using what appears to be Truvelo CMS 12.7x99mm rifle. Miller is later seen using the rifle. This particular rifle appears to be missing the plastic panels on the sides of the receiver, exposing the chassis of the rifle.
Rifles
CAR-15
AR-15 Carbines fitted with scopes and R.I.S. handguards in order to resemble the M4A1 are used by Sgt. Brandon Beckett (Chad Michael Collins) as well as the other Marines in the Congo.
A&K SPR Mod 0 Carbine
Another Marine is seen carrying an A&K SPR Mod 0 Carbine airsoft gun. This gun is a fictitious carbine variant of the Mk 12 Mod 0 SPR.
M16A1 w/A2 Handguards
Marines who train with Miller as well as other Marines in the Congo are seen with the M16A1 with A2 handguards.
Vektor R5 (Modified to Resemble AK-47)
Rebel soldiers use what appear to be at first glance AK-47 rifles. However, based on their 5.56 magazines and angled Valmet-style receiver design, these rifles are actually Vektor R5 rifles modified to resemble Kalashnikovs. Similar weapons have appeared in other movies made in South Africa, such as District 9 or Chris Ryan's Strike Back.
Vektor R5
Other unmodified Vektor R5 rifles are used by UN Forces.
Vektor R6
What is referred to as an "AKS" being displayed to UN Forces appears to be a Vektor R6 rifle modified to resemble an AKS-74.
Handguns
Vektor Z88
Due to the film's production in South Africa, the Vektor Z88, the South African copy of the Beretta 92FS, appears to be the handgun used throughout the film in lieu of the Beretta.
LAR Grizzly Mk I.45 Winchester Magnum
The LAR Grizzly Mk I is given to Sgt. Beckett by Miller. Miller says that it was a gift from Beckett's father (he had used it in the first film).
Submachine Guns
Heckler & Koch MP5A3
The Heckler & Koch MP5 is seen carried by military police at the film's conclusion.
