Samlondon Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I was one of the armourers on Black widow and can cofirm they were section 5 G5s set up to fire blank. Not GHK The Glock 26 firing on the bridge was an umarex, the only airsoft used in the film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Rogerborg Posted July 13, 2021 Supporters Share Posted July 13, 2021 Interesting stuff. I'm actually a little surprised that they used blank firers, given how prevalent CGI is now. See: Thor Ragnarock. Obviously upgraded to Asgardian technology... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, while I would assume that someone who worked on the film would know better, the detail focussed massive nerds over at IMFDB haven't mentioned G5s at all http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Black_Widow_(2021) They do mention that some of the bad guys have Scorpion EVOs though...

Guest DrAlexanderTobacco Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Yeah, the G5 is just an up-calibre'd Scorpion EVO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samlondon Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Yes sorry I was getting confused we had so many weapons out they were scorpion Evos not G5 For anyone interested here is a pic of one I took in the Budapest safe house armoury Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Any one else seen it? There are two scenes, close ups of the baddies weapons on the floor at the main headquarters, both very clearly show a 556 mag in a weapon that looks identical to a G5. probably 🤣🤣 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters TheFull9 Posted July 18, 2021 Supporters Share Posted July 18, 2021 Let's just clear this up a tad because weirdly it needs it - as Dr said the (airsoft) GHK G5 is based on the (firearm) CZ Scorpion Evo 3 in terms of general look/style. The actual firearm has been around and known of for a very long time, long before it got popular in airsoft and video games. GHK probably just went off pictures when they designed the G5 with 556 style mags since, iirc, the G5 was around years before the ASG Scorpion Evo AEG. GHK were already making a fair few GBB 556-style/size mags at that time and obviously they hold more gas, which logistically would explain the design choice. As some old salts might know - The gun being almost all plastic made it cheap to manufacture and well performing in all weathers; when it came out in the earlier days of gas-in-mag GBBRs everyone raved about it as being better than all the WA and WE M4s that were the popular thing in GBBR world back then. The real CZ is relatively cheap, simple and reliable so with that modern look it's prime hollywood fodder. Also an ideal candidate for blank conversion since it's a straight blowback operated firearm with a non-locking breech/bolt, so double points there in the film industry's eyes. Since films now do often use airsoft paired with CGI however it's pretty likely you'll see both the G5 and CZ Evo on the screen in future and given the similar looks, fast cuts, long shots and motion blur I can see how the two would get mixed up.
