Think I saw that in a Jackie Chan flick

Hard to tell from the picture. Looks like an A2 upper with collapsable stock (M4 type?) and an aftermarket fore stock and flash hinder. Topperd with a variant of possibily an Aimpoint sight. Second picture shows all Berettas, again bad picture for model ID, but model 92 variants and .25acp Berettas. I of course may be wrong, but that's what I can make out. Truthfully looks like an airsoft convention with all the slincers. But I know this is a real event and for them to have those types of weapons, they are diffently bad people.

Its just an AR-15 of some sort, it could be made by anyone and could have parts from many different manufactures.

Lightweight 16" AR with a free-float tube, detachable carry handle, folding front sight and a muzzle brake that I don't recognize. Could have been made by anyone, but considering the point of origin, it is probably one of the Chinese copies.
