Sniper 2 is the second feature in the Sniper film series. For the 2002 DTV sequel, Tom Berenger returns as Master Gunnery Sergeant Thomas Beckett, who is asked to come out of retirement by the NSA in order to take on a mission to eliminate a Serbian general responsible for genocide. For the mission, Beckett is partnered with a former Delta Force sniper who was on death row. The cast includes Bokeem Woodbine and Linden Ashby.
The following weapons were used in the film Sniper 2:
Rifles
Swedish 1896 Mauser
Master Gunnery Sgt. Thomas Beckett (Tom Berenger) uses a sporterized Swedish Model 1896 Mauser rifle. The unique shape of the M1896 cocking piece can be seen at the rear of the bolt, and the bolt sleeve lacks the gas-deflecting flange of the later Model 98-pattern bolt.
Remington 700PSS
Beckett is seen with the Remington 700PSS sniper rifle during the initial mission.
Mosin Nagant M91/30
A Soviet Mosin Nagant M91/30 rifle is found by Beckett in the underground weapons cache. He wrongly identifies the rifle as a "Mauser 7.92", when he should have said "Mosin 7.62". Beckett was likely referring to a Gewehr 98 Mauser in 7.92x57mm due to its similar size and appearance. Beckett is also seen using it during the convoy ambush.
Mosin Nagant M91/30 PU Sniper
In some parts of the film, the rifle becomes a Mosin Nagant M91/30 with a down-turned bolt and is equipped with a scope.
Custom Bullpup M91/30 Sniper Rifle
The counter sniper (Béla Jáki) carries a custom Mosin Nagant M91/30 in a bullpup stock.
Type III AK-47
Several characters are seen carrying Soviet Type III AK-47s with milled receivers. Cole (Bokeem Woodbine) carries an AK-47 near the end of the film. It should be noted that since Sniper 2 takes place in Serbia, it would be far more likely for the characters to be using Zastava M70s. However, it should be noticed that it is still likely that there would be normal AK-47s in the Balkans, just not nearly as common.
M16A1 with M203 Grenade Launcher
M16A1 assault rifles equipped with M203 40mm grenade launchers are seen carried by Serbian special forces.
Submachine Guns
Steyr SPP
The bodyguards carry Steyr SPP machine pistols.
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
The Serbian special forces operatives who hunt Beckett (Tom Berenger) and Cole (Bokeem Woodbine) carry Heckler & Koch MP5A2 submachine guns. Cole is also seen carrying one in the forest.
Machine Guns
RPD Light Machine Gun
The RPD light machine gun is seen mounted on several jeeps as well as tanks.
Handguns
SIG-Sauer P225
A SIG-Sauer P225 is seen carried by Sophia (Erika Marozsán).
