'''''Wild Geese II''''' is a 1985 British action thriller directed by Peter R. Hunt. A group of mercenaries, led by former Lebanese soldier John Haddad ([[Scott Glenn]]), is hired to rescue Rudolf Hess ([[Laurence Olivier]]), the only surviving leader of Nazi Germany from Spandau Prison in West Berlin. Several rival forces, including an East German-supported terrorist Karl Stroebling (Robert Freitag) and high-ranking British officer Reed-Henry ([[Kenneth Haigh]]), are interested in releasing Hess, so Haddad's task is especially complicated.

This film was planned as a direct sequel to ''[[The Wild Geese]]'', with [[Richard Burton]] and [[Roger Moore]] reprising their roles from the original. When Moore declined to participate due to his dislike of the script, and Burton passed away just before shooting started, the Allen Faulkner character was substituted with Alex Faulkner ([[Edward Fox]]), Allen's younger brother. As a result, ''Wild Geese II'' only has a passing relation to the original ''The Wild Geese''.
This film was planned as a direct sequel to ''[[The Wild Geese]]'', with [[Richard Burton]] and [[Roger Moore]] reprising their roles from the original. Roger Moore declined to participate due to his dislike of a script that depicted a Nazi War Criminal being rescued, [[Lewis Collins]] was initially hired but American distributors demanded an American co-lead and [[Scott Glenn]] replaced Collins. Richard Burton, who had been in ill health for some time and the script and prop sniper rifle had especially been altered to suit this, passed away at his home in Switzerland two days before shooting commenced in Berlin. Producer Euan Lloyd remembered a conversation with Burton where they discussed their admiration for the leading actor in [[The Day of the Jackal]], so Allen Faulkner's character was substituted with his younger brother Alex Faulkner ([[Edward Fox]]). As a result, ''Wild Geese II'' only has a passing relation to the original ''The Wild Geese''.

Several [[M1911]]-style pistols are used throughout the film.  Joseph ([[David Lumsden]]), one of Haddad's men, is seen with an [[M1911A1]]-style pistol in one scene.  Stroebling's henchwoman ([[Ingrid Pitt]]), posing as a hooker, carries a pistol that looks mostly like a [[Colt Commander]] but has an external extractor. Same or similar looking pistols are seen in hands of other Stroebling's henchmen. When Col. Reed-Henry ([[Kenneth Haigh]]) meets Soviet general and KGB high rank official ([[Michael Harbour]]), the latter takes a pistol from Reed-Henry's holster. The service pistol of the British officer must be an L9A1, a version of [[Browning Hi-Power]], but Reed-Henry's pistol looks different.

Wild Geese II is a 1985 British action thriller directed by Peter R. Hunt (Death Hunt). A group of mercenaries, led by former Lebanese soldier John Haddad (Scott Glenn), is hired to rescue Rudolf Hess (Laurence Olivier), the only surviving leader of Nazi Germany from Spandau Prison in West Berlin. Several rival forces, including an East German-supported terrorist Karl Stroebling (Robert Freitag) and high-ranking British officer Reed-Henry (Kenneth Haigh), are interested in releasing Hess, so Haddad's task is especially complicated.

This film was planned as a direct sequel to The Wild Geese, with Richard Burton and Roger Moore reprising their roles from the original. Roger Moore declined to participate due to his dislike of a script that depicted a Nazi War Criminal being rescued, Lewis Collins was initially hired but American distributors demanded an American co-lead and Scott Glenn replaced Collins. Richard Burton, who had been in ill health for some time and the script and prop sniper rifle had especially been altered to suit this, passed away at his home in Switzerland two days before shooting commenced in Berlin. Producer Euan Lloyd remembered a conversation with Burton where they discussed their admiration for the leading actor in The Day of the Jackal, so Allen Faulkner's character was substituted with his younger brother Alex Faulkner (Edward Fox). As a result, Wild Geese II only has a passing relation to the original The Wild Geese.


The following weapons were used in the film Wild Geese II:

Revolvers

Enfield No.2 Mk.1*

In several scenes, Stroebling's henchmen use snub nose revolvers that resemble the Smith & Wesson Model 36. As the movie was filmed in Germany, Arminius HW-37 blank firing revolver, styled after S&W Model 36, is even more possible guess.

Pistols

Faulkner's Rifle (Safari Arms M1911)

Throughout the movie Alex Faulkner (Edward Fox) uses a suppressed sniper rifle. It appears to be a Safari Arms M1911 pistol in 'Survivor' Rifle kit, fitted with a sniper scope and (obviously fake) sound suppressor. The gun was provided by Don McNabb Sr., the founder of Safari Arms. This lightweight 'sniper rifle' was used because the film's original star, Richard Burton had recently had surgery on his spine and was struggling to hold objects.
