The company's Marksman/Sniper makes ample use throughout the film of an Lee-Enfield Rifle No.4(T) with a 3.5x scope. He's a force multiplier, picking off enemy heavy weapon crews like the M2 above! 2/
In this shot we see Dornan as Cmdt Pat Quinlan with a FN FAL. The Irish troops arriving in the Congo were the first to be equipped with Belgian-made metric-pattern FN FALs.
Note in the background, a chap with an SMLE MkIII - a classic! /3
