TRAINING DAY

Before the star of our movie can blaze away on the screen with automatic gunfire, we had to give Santiago Craig and his costar, Julio Garcia a training day to familiarize them both with the operation of the M-4 selective-fire carbine.

These M-4 carbines aren't firing blanks today, as they will in the movie. Today, they're firing 5.56mm NATO ammunition so our Actors know firsthand how to operate the weapons safely and effectively once they're on set for the large-scale, full-auto, downtown shootouts.

In addition to the M-4 carbines, our Actors fired everything from a silenced .22 pistol and a 40mm M203 grenade launcher to an autoloading .50 Barrett sniper rifle.
