Just watched it. Kinda sucked other than the last 15 minutes. Did anyone notice that Crowe's M4 did not have a mag fence? All the others, as far as I could tell, did. Just thought I would throw that out there.

 It was not a bad flick but the last 15 minutes were the best . I rewound and watched that part about 5 or 6 times before we had to return it to the vid store .  Great battle scene .
They should of brought  a silenced sniper rifle though .  Man that lmg on the hill rocked .
Does anyone know , was that a SAW ? IT was sweet .

The reinforced (or raised) area around the mag release.  To protect against the inadvertant hitting of the mag release.  

The older ARs didn't have this feature and are called "slab side" lowers.

Yes, it was an M249 SAW. If you watch closely, you can see the internal BFA light up.
