M60 Machinegun from “First Blood”

John Rambo, played by Sylvester Stallone, strolls into a town to visit a Vietnam buddy where he gets accosted by a small-town sheriff with a big-time ego who learns you really shouldn’t push a Green Beret, not unless you want your deputies made a fool of and your office shot up with a M60 Machinegun. Everything about that is cool.

    You missed all the fine guns in the classic movie "The Wild Bunch,"such as the Maxim heavy machine gun wielded by William Holden,or the M-97 shotguns used in the final scenes of that movie.
