Is Whitey using a M1A1?

[painter777]

Overheard the gun shots and spent brass hitting the pavement on the tv in the other room yesterday. Thought I knew that sound. By the time I got in there this scene was over. So I looked it up. Carbine? yes.... thoughts?

Yep, Charlie, sure looks like it.

To me, looks like an M1A1 with extended mag, flip sight, Type 2? band, and no sling. Not sure I could see the metal "folder" on it. - Bob

I don't think so, think it's one of the others with a grip and the folder taken off...like the "Schmeisser" type... I can't say though.

I'm sticking with M1A1. I believe I can see the cut for the folder in the left side of the stock in the first pictures, and the grip looks right in these pictures. - Bob

It has a pistol grip for sure. But in the third photo it almost looks like the back side of the stock is made for the under folder type butt and not the side swing M1A1.

And the bayo band shadow ?

The handguard a couple shades too light?

One of my favorite websites:
http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Black_Mass

Some pages are better than others and this one is a bit sparse. It does say it’s a M1A1 though.

After watching a movie with lots of guns, I always go to that website
