——《Full Metal Jacket》 (1987)

Any war is a magnifying glass of good and evil in human nature

As the last anti-war film of "god-level director" Kubrick, the fame of "All Metal Shell" (released in 1987) can be described as well-known ~ but "Full Metal Shell" is not a marked war masterpiece, the war scene is not large, the film picture is not cruel and realistic, but this film is hailed by many as one of the best anti-war films in history.

In the movie, it is more of a metaphorical "discrimination", the discrimination of instructors against soldiers, the discrimination of soldiers against civilians, the discrimination of civilians against prostitutes, the discrimination of war against life, and the discrimination of directors against war.

The Vietnam War was the longest-lasting and largest war after the end of World War II, which not only rewrote the pattern of world power, but also had a major impact on cultural ideas, war is no longer a simple synonym for defending the country, a reflection on human dignity and the value of life. At the same time, the birth of a large number of films and works of art also reflects the reconsidering of human nature and peace in this war.

Forrest Gump's memories of this experience in "Forrest Gump" ~ Recent news, Brother Tang confirmed that he was infected with the new crown virus, and also hoped that he would recover as soon as possible.

The return of power to the flowers was proposed in 1965 by the American Beat poet Alan Ginsburg, advocating a peaceful approach to the Vietnam War. It was later summarized as a modern man associated with hippie movement, Psychedelic music, psychedelic art, and social laissez-faire.

Japanese flower arranger Makoto Azuma and several artists held a photo exhibition called "War and Flowers", where a total of 89 photographic pictures were displayed to reflect the scenes of the flowers in the war. Think again, war and human nature.

Although there are not many types of weapons in this movie, we still introduce some of the small arms that have appeared in this movie from the perspective of light weapons enthusiasts. Without further ado, the main text begins

< H1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > M14 rifle</h1>

The M14 automatic rifle was developed by garland, the designer of the M1 semi-automatic rifle, based on the M1 after World War II, entered service in 1957, and was soon removed in 1968. The M14 withdrawal originated from the Vietnam War. The main reasons why the M14 was replaced by the M16 were:

The M14 is too long and too big to be flexible in the jungle.

It is impossible to take advantage of the range of a full-powered projectile.

In the humid climate of Southeast Asia, the M14's all-wooden butt becomes heavier and less accurate as soon as it gets wet.

The 7.62mm NATO bomb weight limited the amount of ammunition for individual soldiers on patrol.

In the first half of the film's boot camp, this group of recruits uses the M14 for training.

When it comes to the featured roles in the movie, Gunnery, played by R. Lee Ermey, is definitely a fierce character. And the fragrant scene of his mouth full of recruits is also unforgettable

Joker helped Pyle train the M14 rifle.

Remember the scene where Pyle sat on the toilet and loaded the bomb? He said "Seven-Six-Two millimeter, Full Metal Jacket."

As an old gun, the M14 is still playing a warm-up in its place. Juggernaut's Rogue Chassis conversion unit was retrofitted to the M14.

In 2019, the Lithuanian Defence Forces released news that a new batch of improved M14 rifles had been received. More than 400 rifles were modified, with bipods and modern optical sights to be distributed to the Defence Volunteers.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">USAF M16 (Colt Model 604)</h1>

In the film, the M16 rifle is used as the standard weapon for most U.S. Marines. The story in the film takes place in the spring offensive of 1968. The M16 rifle was equipped by the Marine Corps in 1967. However, the M16 was equipped at the time, the M16A1, and it was the Colt Model 604 that appeared in the movie. The Model 604 is an Air Force-equipped M16, and the gun differs from the XM16E1 in that it does not have an auxiliary push handle and magazine port stiffeners.

In the film, "Arliss Howard" tapes the M16's magazine together. This practice originated on the Thompson submachine gun in World War II and continued until the Vietnam War. After the private Joker encountered a Vietnamese sniper, his rifle appeared jammed. On early M16s, this failure was so common due to poor propellants and lack of maintenance that made early M16 notorious.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">MGC Replica M16</h1>

M16 replica of MGC.

In some scenarios, there is no need for props that can shoot empty packages. So those actors who played the Marines would carry M16 replicas of MGC. This is due to the fact that the film contains a large number of shooting scenes, resulting in the very expensive price of renting weapons that fire empty packages.

Joker's M16, holding the MGC, is a stark irony with the anti-war logo on his body.

Crazy Earl ran wild on the battlefield.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">SA Vz.58</h1>

The full name of the Vz58 is Samopal vzor 1958, which literally translates to "Type 1958 submachine gun", and we know that this is an assault rifle. The more accurate name is "SA Vz.58". In addition to its use in the Czech and Slovak armies, the Vz58 assault rifle is also exported in large quantities to other countries, and is used by armed forces in more than 90 countries or regions around the world. However, compared to AK rifles, the Vz58 is still too small in number around the world, so it is less likely to appear on the battlefield.

In the final battle, the female gunner used SA Vz.58. One of the details, JOKER almost died because of the malfunction of the M16 in his hand.

< H1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > M60 general purpose machine gun</h1>

M60 GPMG - 7.62x51mm NATO

The M60 type 7.62mm general-purpose machine gun, which began to be equipped with the U.S. army in 1958, replaced the 7.62mm Browning M1917A1, M1919A4 heavy machine guns and M1919A6 light machine guns. The M60 type universal machine gun is one of the most famous machine guns in the world, in addition to the equipment of the US military, the armed forces of more than 30 countries such as South Korea and Australia are also equipped with it.

As a classic weapon in Vietnam War movies, the M60 machine gun appears in almost every film that reflects the Vietnam War. For example, JOKER fights back against the other side's sneak attack with everyone, in addition to Doorgunner's strafing on the helicopter.

And the arm power demon Animator Mother in the film carries his M60 up and down, and his combat power is unlimited.

< H1 class = "pgc-h-arrow-right" > Browning M2HB machine gun</h1>

The M2 Machine Gun is commonly known as the Browning Machine Gun (Cal.). The 50, M2HB, Flexible.), is a large-caliber heavy machine gun designed by John Moses Browning, firing 12.7 ×99 mm (.50BMG) large-caliber ammunition, commonly used in infantry fire positions and military vehicles such as tanks, armored personnel carriers, etc., the main purpose is to attack light armored targets, assemble living targets and low-altitude air defense. It was used in service from 1921 until the 21st century.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">M1911A1</h1>

After world war I, the U.S. Army Ordnance Department evaluated the combat performance of the M1911 pistol and asked Colt to make improvements. These improvements were completed in 1923, and the new gun that passed the test was officially adopted by the U.S. Military on June 25, 1926, and renamed the "0.45-inch caliber M1911A1 automatic pistol". Since then, the gun has hardly made any major changes in its construction. In addition, there are many foreign companies or governments that have obtained the authorization of Colt Browning to produce M1911 models of different calibers.

In the final battle, 1911 in the hands of JOKER.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">M72 LAW</h1>

M72 LAW (Light Anti-Tank Weapon), abbreviated as LAW. One is the 66 mm disposable rocket launcher developed by the American Hesse Oriental Company in 1958. The biggest feature of the M72 LAW is the use of an innovative concept: pre-packaged launchable rockets and disposable launchers. Because it was easy to carry and use, it was widely welcomed, exported to other countries and licensed for production in Norway, and later widely adopted not only by multiple NATO member states, but also by many countries to imitate and produce.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right">M79 Grenade Launcher</h1>

The M79 grenade launcher was 731 mm long, 357 mm long and weighed 2.7 kg empty, and was designed to resemble a large-caliber plucked short-barreled shotgun. The M79 grenade launcher is a single-soldier melee weapon, mainly used to kill and injure living targets, but also used for armor breaking, lighting, signal instructions, casting smoke screens, etc., to strengthen infantry firepower and fill the fire gap between grenades and mortars.

< H1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > M26 grenade</h1>

The M26 grenade was designed and finalized in 1949 and entered service in the U.S. Army in the early 1950s, primarily for position defense and urban street warfare. Due to the technical limitations of the M26 grenade at that time, it could not be equipped with a trigger/delay dual-function fuze, and it was still equipped with a single extension fuze. Due to the defects in the explosion effect and safety of the M26 type, the M26 type was improved and an improved M26A1 type was produced. After the successful development of the M217 electric fuze in the early 1960s, an improved M26A2 type was produced. The M26 is now decommissioned, and the M26 A1 and M26 A2 are still being equipped.

And when the "clowns" walked out of the training camp and came to the real battlefield, they also found that this is not a world where grass grows with "blood", war is far less poetic, it is in the establishment and disintegration of such lies, the distortion and reset of the heart, Kubrick coldly completed an anti-war movie masterpiece. He shows us cruelty and hope, chills us in the cold narrative, and finds a glimmer of light in the confused eyes of the soldiers in the war.
