A [[Remington 700]] rifle is used by Shane ([[Bowie Lam]]), one of Fang's fellow SDU snipers. The rifle uses an AICS stock, giving it the appearance of an Accuracy International rifle such as the AWP.

In the French version, Fang says Ching is using a 50 millimeters as opposed to .50 inches.

Sniper Rifles

Heckler & Koch PSG-1

The Heckler & Koch PSG-1 sniper rifle is prominently used by Chen (Edison Chen) throughout much of the film, and by Ching (Huang Xiaoming) in flashback sequences. The rifle itself is a fake that was created by combining a long barrel with a PSG-1 forearm, buttstock and pistol grip on an HK91/G3 body, similar to the H&K SR9 rifles seen in Hollywood productions.

It's a fake 'build-up' PSG-1 (much like the SR9TC rifles in Hollywood), created by putting long barrel (note that it is slimmer than a real PSG heavy barrel), or a barrel sleeve extender, along with the recognizable forearm, buttstock and pistol grip on a standard HK91/G3 body. A build-up like this would cost under $1000, whereas a real German PSG-1 sells for $10,000 - $35,000.

Heckler & Koch G3SG/1

Several members of the SDU sniper team are armed with Heckler & Koch G3SG/1 rifles. Note that this is just a standard H&K G3 that's made to look like a G3SG/1 rifle. Although it's fitted with an SG/1 stock, it lacks the set trigger that's characteristic of factory SG/1 rifles.

In the finale, Ching uses a Barrett M82A1 alongside his Type 85, engaging in a lengthy duel with Fang, Chen and the rest of the SDU sniper team. We could note that between the moment when he is filmed from his back and from his front, his rifle switches from a G3SG/1 to the Barrett M82A1. In the French version, Fang says Ching is using a 50 millimeters as opposed to .50 inches.

Also, this prop gun appears to be a mock-up incorporating a SKS rifle receiver.
