Rescue Dawn
The following firearms were used in the film Rescue Dawn:
AK47
A large number of the Vietcong carry what appear to be Russian made AK47's indicated by the milled reciever. Dieter Dengler (Christian Bale) and Gene DeBruin (Jeremy Davies) later acquire one during their escape from the POW camp in Laos.
SKS
Another weapon used extensivley by the Vietcong are SKS semi-automatic rifles. Interesting note is that the majority of them do not have the underfolded bayonets attached. One is later acquired by Duane Martin (Steve Zahn) during his escape from the POW camp with Dengler.
MAT-49
Another weapon commonly seen is the French MAT-49 submachine gun. In an interesting scene, one of the prison guards is playing around with the gun and he accidently fires it and drops it to the ground with the gun still firing causing bullets to fly all around the vicinity nearly hitting many of the people close by.
Mosin Nagant M38
In one scene in which Dieter Dengler appears to be in a cave with the Vietcong, what seems to be a Mosin Nagant M38 can be seen lying on the ground.
M16A1
When Dieter Dengler finally gets picked up by American forces, one of the soldiers on board the helicopter can be seen with an M16A1.
M60D
When Dengler finally gets pickd up by American forces, an M60D can be seen mounted on board the helicopter that picks him up.
