And in case anyone thought it was authentic, Brandon Webb has already reviewed the movie for SOFREP.

I suppose I should give Clint Eastwood credit for going all the way in portraying jihadi burtality (the scenes with the drill), which has often been too much to ask of Hollywood.
Oddly enough, Act of Valor had a scene with a drill.

So how about the firearms in the movie and handing? Good? Accurate? Assorted?
