It's me again. Does anyone know what the "M41-A Pulse Rifle" was in real life? Kind of like the Star Wars weapons were made from Sterlings and Mausers. But what about the Aliens weapons?
------------------
The needs of the many out way the needs of the few.
It's been awhile since I've seen the movie, but if I recall correctly, the pulse rifle was mostly SPAS12. Additionally, the flamers were AR15s, and the Smart Rifle was mostly M60.
This is correct - the base gun was an M-21, a WWII TOMMY GUN... under it is an Ithica 12 Guage, with some SPAS 12 parts for looks. They called it an M-41A.
The pistols in the movie were VP-70s...
Of the 5 working guns - only one had the reming 870 action... but it didnt pump right... and was rarely used. The ithica worked better... for some reason.
