Remington 870

Remington 870 shotguns are used by Hatcher's (Christopher Walken) men. Beck (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) later wields two akimbo (one with wood furniture, one with synthetic) during the shootout at the end of the film, pumping the actions in various manners to chamber the guns.

Beck fires the synthetic stock Remington 870 one-handed at Hatcher's men, note bullet impact to where he is aiming. In real life, the recoil tends to launch the pump back and cause even more recoil, but blanks don't produce enough "kick" to do this, making firing these shotguns easier in the film.

Beck pumps the Remington 870s against a wooden crate, which wouldn't grab the pumps enough to properly chamber them. Likely they edited out any problems and kept rolling. Surely the weapons coordinator for the film was pleased to see how poorly these shotguns were treated. Note the scratches on the wooden pump.

Reversed shot.

Beck twirls the shotguns under his arms to pump the actions. While cool looking in the film, this is not as easy in real life (know from experiance).

Beck then twirls the guns back to the ready position. Without turning the safeties on, the weight of the guns would cause both triggers to pull, firing the guns early. We never see him turn the safeties on so this is another cool but unlikely action.

Beck holds the two shotguns together to pump the action.

Beck shoulders the two shotguns together and fires. Talk about recoil!

Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2

Browning Automatic Rifles are used by Hatcher's men throughout the film, despite their obsoletion to more modern assault rifles.

Browning Automatic Rifle M1918A2 - .30-06.

Beck tosses away a BAR after knocking out a thug with it.

Beck flips up two floor boards to protect himself from a thug firing his BAR, as if a thin piece of wood would stop a .30-06 round at such a close range.

Reversed shot.

Also a reversed shot, but flipped proper.

Beck briefly picks up a BAR but never fires it.

IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII

Hatcher (Christopher Walken) uses a polished nickel plated IMI Desert Eagle Mark VII in .44 Magnum during the last scene in which he confronts Beck (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson), but is continually dissarmed and unable to fire it.

Heckler & Koch MG3

Heckler & Koch MG3s are seen mounted on various dune buggy's used by Hatcher's men.

A CGI close up of a round from the MG3 is seen, but inaccurately portrayed as a .223 round, despite the MG3 being chambered in 7.62x51mm NATO.

M14

Hatcher's men use scoped M14 Rifles during the final shootout in the town. These are semiautomatic M14As or M1As since they are missing the auto fire selector switch. Beck (Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson) at one point takes one of these rifles and fires it one-handed, despite the 9lb weight.

Hatcher's guard fires his M14/M1A. This is a semi auto only rifle, note the empty space in the stock where the selector switch would be.

Beck catches the M14/M1A off of the thug after he is shot and uses it to shoot the Desert Eagle out of Hatcher's hand. Note where the rifle is aims to where the round hits.

Beck holds the M14/M1A on Hatcher, with one hand.

SVD Dragunov

Hatcher's men use SVD Dragunov rifles to fire from the rooftops in the town. The angular, rather than curved shape of the magazine indicates that it is a Norinco NDM-86, a Chinese clone of the SVD that was chambered in .308 rather than the original 7.62x54R cartridge.

SKS

The Guerilla rebel fighters are seen armed with SKS rifles, as well as Hatcher's men in the town shootout.

Russian SKS rifle with Blade bayonet - 7.62x39mm.

A Guerilla chambers his SKS, which implies the rifle was preloaded and the bullets pressed down enough to allow the bolt to pass without chambering a round immediately as the design intends.

Rather useless with the bolt locked back.

Same problem with this Guerilla in the town.

Norinco SKS-D

Mariana (Rosario Dawson) uses an Norinco SKS-D rifle, built to except detachable AK magazines, which are easier to aquire than the U.S. civilian market SKS magazines.

Norinco SKS-D - 7.62x39mm.

Mariana chambers her SKS-D.

Beck takes the SKS-D from Mariana and unloads it after she tries to shoot Travis (Sean William Scott).

Here we see a 7.62x39mm round sticking vertically from the magazine. The mag is clearly an AK mag and not a detachable SKS magazine as evident by the lack of the elongated top.
