Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil

Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil (2006)

Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil is the 2006 action film that was released as a sequel to 2001's Behind Enemy Lines. Other than some stock footage from the 2001 film, this 2006 sequel does not have any relation other than the basic plot of US military personnel being stranded in enemy territory. This film encountered enough success to warrant two more films under Behind Enemy Lines banner: 2008's Behind Enemy Lines: Colombia and 2014's Seal Team 8: Behind Enemy Lines.

The following weapons were used in the film Behind Enemy Lines II: Axis of Evil:

Rifles

Bulgarian AR

The majority of the rifles used by both US Navy SEALs team and North Korean soldiers, appear to be some sort variant of the Bulgarian AR-F. Some of these rifles have the hooded sight and some with ultra short barrels.

Bulgairan AR-F, 7.62x39mm

Type 56-1 assault rifle (under-folding stock variant) - 7.62x39mm

A SEAL holds one of AK-type rifles.

Two SEALs fire the AK-type rifles with ultra short barrels.

CWO Lawrence Meideros (Mykel Shannon Jenkins) and 2nd Class Petty Officer Corey Schulteiss (Michael Simpson) both firing oddly customized Bulgarian AK-47 milled rifles with ultra short barrels as Lt. James (Nicholas Gonzalez) fires his PPS-43 mocked up to look like an MP5.

Arsenal AR-M1F

Seen in the hands of Lieutenant Robert James (Nicholas Gonzalez), Master Chief Petty Officer Neil 'Spaz' Callaghan (Matt Bushell) and possibly South Korean Spec-Ops soldiers are Bulgarian Arsenal AR-M1F rifles that have AKS-74U style muzzle brakes in place of their regular flash hiders. They have milled receivers, underfolding stocks, and AK-74 type gas blocks.

Custom Sniper Rifle

An unknown sniper rifle is used by two South Korean Special Forces Soldiers. It may be a SVD Dragunov fitted with a different stock. The sniper rifles were possibly Bulgarian ARs mocked up to look like Dragunov or Zastava M76 rifles

Commercial "Tiger Carbine" (aka "Dragunov Tiger") version sold in the US, with synthetic furnishings used on domestic SVD-M modernized variant - 7.62x54mm R

Zastava M7O scoped-7.62x39mm

Bulgairan AR, 7.62x39mm

Custom Special Ops Rifles

An M16 type rifle can be seen used by the South Korean Spec-Ops soldiers. They appear to be Armscor M16 22 rifles, but they could also be the mocked up M16A2s from Bulgarian ARs.

Armscor (Squires Bingham of the Philippines) M16 22 rifle - .22 LR. Sometimes sold as the M-1600

Submachine Guns

PPS-43 (fake MP5)

Since this film was shot in Bulgaria, we see many Eastern European weapons. The fake Heckler & Koch MP5 used by Lt. Robert James (Nicholas Gonzalez) and in the hands of a few SEAL members near the end of the film is actually a mocked up PPS-43, chambered in 7.62x25mm Tokarev, which explains the magazine that is slightly too fat to be 9x19mm.

Heckler & Koch MP5A3 with "tropical" (wide) forearm - 9x19mm with stock extended

Lt. James (Nicholas Gonzalez) and his PPS-43 mocked up to look like an MP5 - 7.62x25mm. The barrel shroud of the PPS-43 was removed but the barrel was not shortened, thus the elongated barrel. The PPS-43 was built up from MP5 parts to impersonate the 9mm Submachine gun.

Lt. James (Nicholas Gonzalez) fires his PPS-43 mocked up to look like an MP5 - 7.62x25mm near CWO Lawrence Meideros (Mykel Shannon Jenkins) and 2nd Class Petty Officer Corey Schulteiss (Michael Simpson). both firing oddly customized Bulgarian AK47 milled rifles with ultra short barrels.

Handguns

M1911A1

A North Korean 'Home Guard' officer fires an M1911A1, killing a local peasant woman, during a melee with the Navy SEALs. Why he would be carrying an M1911 is a mystery since he would most likely be carrying the North Korean equivalent of the Tokarev TT-33.

A closer shot of the North Korean Home Guard Officer and his M1911 - .45 ACP. His uniform is a light grey version of the Soviet Commissar uniform of WW2 and is anachronistic. The costuming is utilizing old Bulgarian surplus uniforms (which makes sense since the film was shot in Bulgaria).

Beretta 92FS

Lt. James uses a suppressed Beretta 92FS during the final mission.

Beretta 92FS - 9x19mm.

Beretta 92FS Inox

This can be seen being used by North Korean Commander Hwang (Joseph Steven Yang). This is also used by both Lt. James and Master Chief Petty Officer Neil 'Spaz' Callaghan.

Beretta 92FS INOX - 9x19mm.

Commander Hwang (Joseph Steven Yang) holds his Beretta M92FS Inox, a very strange choice for a North Korean officer who should be useing a Makarov PM, Tokarev TT-33, or Stechkin APS.

Beretta Cheetah

A two-tone Beretta 84F is seen in the hands of Lieutenant Robert James (Nicholas Gonzalez).
