A Time to Kill (1996)



M16A1/SP1

Carl Lee Hailey (Samuel L. Jackson) uses an M16A1 rifle to take revenge on the men who raped his daughter. In the book, it was explained that Hailey acquired the M16 from a friend who had served in Vietnam and smuggled the rifle illegally back to America after his tour ended. However, this was not included in the film version. D.A. Rufus Buckley (Kevin Spacey) also is seen holding what is supposed to be the weapon as evidence during his closing arguments.

While the rifle that Hailey uses in the shooting is an M16A1, the rifle shown by Buckley in the closing argument is actually an M16 SP1. This is a continuity error.
