Machine Gun Preacher is a 2011 action-drama about the true story of Sam Childers, a drug-dealing biker, who found God and later became the savior of hundreds of Sudanese orphans and child soldiers. Gerard Butler stars as Childers, and the film is directed by Marc Forster (Quantum of Solace, World War Z).


The following weapons were used in the film Machine Gun Preacher:

Vektor R5 (Mocked up as Norinco Type 56C)
