Dr. Robert Neville’s (Will Smith) rifle used in the 2007 blockbuster I Am Legend. In the film, Dr. Neville is the sole human survivor in New York City after a virus epidemic swept through the world. Neville is in constant danger of being attacked by the mutant zombies and, as a result, he is well armed. Neville’s weapon of choice is a highly-customized rifle that never leaves his side.
This is a genuine 5.56mm, semi-automatic civilian version, that was modified for the film to fire blanks and to fire full-auto. The rifle has since been returned to its original semi-automatic configuration (the changes are internal parts only), so it can be sold to any US citizen in a state that does not forbid ownership of such a rifle. As it is a real firearm, all of the moving parts are fully functional on this model -- the retractable stock, removable magazine, working switches, charging handle, and sling. It can be fully field stripped as well. The scope is a practical scope with real glass optics. The surefire flashlight and laser on the forearm are also both practical, and functional. The light and laser unit can be removed from the forearm and swapped to the other side- it is seen on both sides in the film. The pressure switch, which activates the light, was just stuck to the forearm with a bit of double-sided tape, so it could be moved around as well. This rifle is the signature piece from the film.
Accessories on this rifle include a Trijicon ACOG optic, C-MORE free-floating rail, ERGO rail covers, and a PentagonLight tactical light.
This firearm was rented to the production, and includes a copy of the rental invoice. Since it has been modified to fire blanks for the film industry, the rifle is no longer capable of firing real ammunition and is sold as a collectible item only. The piece is still technically a firearm and thus must be transferred through the proper channels. The rifle is currently held by a licensed firearms dealer in Macon, Georgia and can only be transferred to your local licensed firearms dealer. You will then have to go through the necessary steps to purchase a firearm, which vary state by state. Colt AR-15 carbines are illegal in some states such as CA and NY, so please inquire with us if interested. This is one of two blank-firing rifles used in the film.
