Red Dawn



There is a lot of controversy surrounding the so called “Red Dawn” guns- how many were there, what were they etc. There have been misrepresentations and outright forgeries regarding these guns. When LMO performed the Stembridge Gun Rentals Inc inventory and appraisal in 1998, these were the weapons identified by the gun handlers that worked on the movie as being used in that movie. This included a certificate from Syd Stembridge, President of SGR Inc, stating that movie use. All told there were just about 1000 NFA items, approximately 500 “Assault Weapons”, and over 9,000 Title 1 firearms. J.R. “Lash” LaRue, my old and respected friend, was called in to handle the Title I section of the appraisal.

At the time of the movie “Red Dawn”, there were few semi auto AK style firearms in the United States. The relatively expensive Egyptian Maadi and Finnish Valmet variants were about the only choice for conversion. Class 2 manufacturer Marty Pearl at Pearl Manufacturing supplied the registered conversion work on all of these guns. The exteriors were roughed up on purpose, and the barrels had a blank restrictor under the flash hider. Internals were pretty good, but blanks do wear barrels differently, and these machine guns were tossed around. They were also used on countless other movies and television shows, but no one took the time to document them for this appraisal and sale.

The first number is the LMO Inventory number assigned during the appraisal. Next is the manufacturer, then model followed by the serial numbers. The notation “Robert’s gun” signifies that these two rifles had the knife marks that the character “Robert” put on the stocks, and his name carved in as well, and were identified by the gun handlers at SGR INC as having been “Robert’s Gun”. All movie uses have two guns, a primary and a back up. The movie can not be stalled while a gun handler tries to fix a malfunctioning firearm. One was purchased and kept by LMO (S001190) because my son Kyle found it and was totally attached to it, the other was purchased by Dave xxxxxx. “Krinkov” means that it is known to have been rebuilt to “Krinkov” configuration by a later purchaser.
