![]() ![]() The force of this explosion is enough to carry Joan across a deep gap in a form of rocket jump. They explode in a gigantic green flash of plasma similar to that of the BFG, causing a wide area of damage which eliminates the entire demonic horde that is chasing Joan toward the portal as she escapes from Hell. When thrown, the grenades light up and change shape. These are circular metallic cans capped over with a version of the UAC logo supported by three metal bands that wrap around the sides of the grenade. When the full rifle rack is shown on screen, it is seen in its case in the distance, but it is silently absent in the next shot where Akua remarks on Captain Savage's shotgun, suggesting that a role for Tarek in that scene may have ended up on the cutting room floor.Īlong with the BFG, Joan acquires three plasma grenades. It is only clearly visible in a promotional shot. Tarek's bulky futuristic rifle is not clearly based on any real-life weapon, and is never seen being equipped, fired, or loaded, despite being one of the two special "hero" weapon props built for the movie (the other being Akua's rotary gun). The firing pattern of the weapons is suggestive of civilian semi-automatic fire rather than the fully automatic gearing that would normally be expected for military applications. All of these rifles have an EOTech holographic sight and an angled foregrip, and utilize Tapco AK magazines. Winslow and Rance wield futuristic assault rifles mocked up on the frame of full-size AK-47, while Li wields a similar but much shorter rifle which seems to have no stock, making it similar to a Zastava M92. Excepting the barrel length, the futuristic housings built for the prop weapons are mostly identical, with a barrel shroud, large thumbhole stocks having a lower receiver holding a rail with attached flashlight, and two separate picatinny rails on top with the rearmost holding C-MORE Railway Series red dot sights. Other characters, including Captain Hector Savage, Chaplain Glover, Private Carley Corbin, and Harry carry the longer version with a barrel somewhere around 20 inches in length. Joan Dark carries a 16-inch barreled version, which she later gives to Bennett Stone after acquiring the BFG9000. Two different futuristic rifles appear which are apparently based on the M4A1 carbine and the Colt AR-15, with the primary difference being the barrel length. 22 calibre weapon, the film portrays it as much more powerful, blasting large holes in targets. ![]() Rance is also seen holding one in a promotional shot, though is never clearly seen wielding it in the movie - he does seem to have it in his hip holster, however. ![]() The Walther P22 semi-automatic pistol equipped with a laser sight is wielded as a side-arm by multiple characters, including Joan Dark, Veronica, and Malcolm Betruger. She loses the weapon almost immediately after drawing it from the holster due to fighting with a zombie. Private Li Chen carries a P30 as her side-arm. Another third-generation Glock, possibly a model 17 or 22, is carried by a zombified security officer who attacks Rance. Lieutenant Joan Dark briefly takes this weapon and dual-wields it along with her P22 as well.Ĭaptain Hector Savage carries a Glock 19 with an attached flashlight as his side-arm. Private Steven Winslow carries a Beretta M9A1 as his sidearm. While he is not clearly seen with it in the film itself, it appears to be in his hip holster. Sergeant Logan Akua is seen with a Beretta 92FS in a promotional photo. ![]()
