It resulted in an estimated 120,000 deaths, displaced nearly one million people and caused widespread destruction across the country. The war arose from longstanding political and sectarian tensions within Lebanon's confessional system, compounded by demographic change, the presence of Palestinian armed groups after the Arab-Israeli conflict, and regional rivalries and the Cold War. Fighting began between Christian militias and Palestinian factions led by the Palestine Liberation Organization, and it grew into a multi-sided war with shifting alliances among Lebanese factions and the military intervention of Syria, Israel, Iran and other foreign actors.FactsLebanese Civil WarConnectionsSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsClassificationDeath Toll MinWell-attested120,000 1Conflict TypeWell-attestedCivil War 1Start YearWell-attested1975 1End YearWell-attested1990 1Lebanese Civil WarFilter Results13 entriesWeapon FamilyAllAssault Rifles (2)Assault Rifles of Germany (1)Assault Rifles of the United States (1)Bolt-Action, Lever-Action and Historic Rifles (1)Other Pistols and Handguns (2)Pistols and Revolvers (6)Rifles and Carbines (4)Semi-Automatic Pistols (4)Semi-Automatic Pistols of Czechia (1)Semi-Automatic Pistols of Germany (1)Semi-Automatic Pistols of Switzerland (2)Shotguns (2)Sniper, Designated Marksman and Anti-Materiel Rifles (1)Submachine Guns (1)Weapon Type or ClassAllAssault rifle (2)Bolt action rifle (1)Combat shotgun (1)Pistol (1)Semi-automatic pistol (4)Semi-automatic sniper rifle, designated marksman rifle (1)small arm (2)Submachine gun (1)CaliberAll.22 Long Rifle (2).22-250 Remington (1).221 Remington Fireball (1).223 Remington (1).243 Winchester (1).270 Winchester (1).280 Remington (1).30-06 Springfield (1).308 Winchester (1).40 S&W (1).45 ACP (1)10mm Auto (1)12-gauge (2)5.56x45mm NATO (2)6.5x47mm Lapua (1)7.62x51mm NATO (1)9x19mm (7)9×19 mm Parabellum (7)9×21mm (1)Introduced EraAll1949 (1)1962 (1)1963 (1)1969 (1)1970 (1)1972 (1)1975 (2)1976 (1)1979 (2)1981 (1)1991 (1)1999 (1)Service StatusAllIn Service (8)Out of Production (2)Prototype or Experimental (1)Retired (2)OperatorAllAustralian Defence Force (1)Bundeswehr (2)Canadian Armed Forces (1)People's Liberation Army (1)Spanish Armed Forces (1)Turkish Armed Forces (1)United States Armed Forces (3)United States Army (1)United States Marine Corps (1)ManufacturerAllBrowning Arms Company (1)China North Industries Group Corporation Limited (1)Franchi (1)Heckler & Koch (4)Hellenic Arms Industry (1)Remington Arms (1)Sterling Armaments Company (1)Steyr Arms (1)Swiss Arms (2)Česká zbrojovka Uherský Brod (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 13ArmaLite AR-18Lebanese Civil WarBrowning BDMLebanese Civil WarCZ 75Lebanese Civil WarFranchi SPAS-12Lebanese Civil WarHeckler & Koch G41Lebanese Civil WarHeckler & Koch P7Lebanese Civil WarHeckler & Koch PSG1Lebanese Civil WarHeckler & Koch VP70Lebanese Civil WarNorinco HP9-1Lebanese Civil WarRemington Model 700Lebanese Civil WarSIG P210Lebanese Civil WarSIG Sauer P220Lebanese Civil WarSteyr MPi 69Lebanese Civil WarConnectionsUsesArmaLite AR-18, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: ArmaLite AR-18Browning BDM, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Browning BDMCZ 75, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: CZ 75tier 2Franchi SPAS-12, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Franchi SPAS-12Heckler & Koch G41, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Heckler & Koch G41Heckler & Koch P7, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Heckler & Koch P7Heckler & Koch PSG1, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Heckler & Koch PSG1Heckler & Koch VP70, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Heckler & Koch VP70Norinco HP9-1, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Norinco HP9-1Remington Model 700, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Remington Model 700SIG P210, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: SIG P210SIG Sauer P220, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: SIG Sauer P220Steyr MPi 69, Weapons Systems Well-attested Source Wikipedia: Steyr MPi 69Sources1.
