Beaufort (Hebrew: בופור‎) is a 2007 Israeli war film directed by Joseph Cedar. Set during the Israeli withdrawal from Southern Lebanon in the summer of 2000, the film follows a group of IDF soldiers as they man a combat outpost at the ancient Crusader fortress of Beaufort Castle, and the efforts of their commander, Lieutenant Liraz "Erez" Librati (Oshi Cohen), to keep his soldiers alive while they prepare for their eventual departure.


The following firearms are seen in the 2007 film Beaufort:


Rifles

Colt Model 653

Most of the IDF soldiers, including Lieutenant Librati, are armed with the Colt Model 653 Carbine. The carbines are mostly seen with two magazines taped together, and have attached Elbit Falcon or Mepro 21 reflex sights.
