Jags: /* Colt New Service? */

== Realization ==

Does anybody else think that the two Indiana Jones's where he shoots a lot more people (Raiders and Crusade) are much better than the two where he hardly shoots anybody (Temple and Skull)? I guess the story could have something to do with it too.
:It's the two with where you have Nazi bad guys. Let's face it, Nazis make good villains. (Too good. Spielberg refused to ever again make a film with cartoon-ish Nazi villains after making Schindler's List.) --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 16:50, 14 July 2011 (CDT)
::(And yes, I know it's wrong to use the term "Nazis" as a blanket term for Germans. But I'm just quoting Indy himself, "Nazis, I hate these guys.") --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 16:56, 14 July 2011 (CDT)
:::I think when they're just being cartoonishly evil it's safe to call them Nazis, because they all are. Plus, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKOJ5bEKPLY we all know that German is the best language for being evil in]. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] 17:11, 14 July 2011 (CDT)

:I like Temple as much as Raiders and Crusade though as a gun guy I do notice the lack of firearms use. However, I would say in Temple's case that the story/setting has a lot to do with ''why'' there isn't much gunplay (It is, after all, a prequel to Raiders, and I would think Indy got wiser about the gun thing after the events in Temple). And fcm, I think there's no one to really object except actual Nazis so don't worry about it. :b Well, that and the fact it is Nazis involved - These are Indy films, not Saving Private Ryan or Band of Brothers.

::"A lot changed for me after [1993's] Schindler's List, especially when I began working with Holocaust survivors, and being able to collect their testimonies. But I never look back with shame at Raiders or Last Crusade. We gave the Nazis the same spin that, I think, in a way, Charlie Chaplin was able to give them in The Great Dictator. There was always a bit of, We're not going to take them that seriously. It's just something I wouldn't choose to do right now. I would choose not to make them Saturday-matinee villains."

:::Personally I liked their turn in ''[[Hogan's Heroes]]'' ;) But I feel everyone needs to fully research the entirety of WW2 history to be more fully rounded. If you watch OTHER historical films like ''[[Downfall (Der Untergang)|Der Untergang]]'' or ''[[Valkyrie]]'' you also don't get a view of ALL Germans as insane sociopaths either. Horrendous things happened, but for every person who toss away their humanity, there were tons of people who were just trying to get by who were not innately evil. One of my FAVORITE WAR movies was 'The Enemy Below' (1957) with Robert Mitchum. [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 20:11, 14 July 2011 (CDT)
::::It is a bit ironic, however, that while Curt Jurgens and Theodore Bikel played good Germans in a movie, in real life, those same Germans imprisoned Jurgens in a concentration camp for his political views, and forced Bikel's family to flee from Austria. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] 20:26, 14 July 2011 (CDT)

== Colt New Service? ==

In this article it says that the M1917 used in Raiders is a Colt New Service, but on the Raiders page it claims it is an S&W M1917. Which page is correct? This would be my first edit and I don't want to make a mistake.

-2ndChoiceName

The two revolvers used by Indy in Raiderrs are most definately a S&W M1917 and a S&W Mk II Hand Ejector as the actual screen used guns are identified as such and are in personal collections. --[[User:Jags|Jags]] ([[User talk:Jags|talk]]) 15:43, 5 January 2013 (EST)

Cool, I just changed it. Also how do I sign my name?

-2ndChoiceName

In which article did you change it? To sign your name just click on the pencil icon at the top of the edit box. --[[User:Jags|Jags]] ([[User talk:Jags|talk]]) 17:19, 5 January 2013 (EST)

I see what you did now and you really messed it up. You need to change it back. It was thought that the Temple of Doom gun was a Colt New Service. It was also thought it could have been one of the S&Ws that had been used in Raiders. --[[User:Jags|Jags]] ([[User talk:Jags|talk]]) 17:25, 5 January 2013 (EST)

I just changed it back for you. If you want to know all about Indy's guns and other props please go here and study up! http://www.indygear.com/cow/viewforum.php?f=4&sid=1ba6c41cc00ed2f1444806ac4e1c0057 --[[User:Jags|Jags]] ([[User talk:Jags|talk]]) 17:34, 5 January 2013 (EST)

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

2013-01-05T22:29:26Z

Jags: /* Colt Official Police */

[[Image:TOD.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]'' (1984)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using a [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the car chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

[[File:IDTOD 18.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Thuggee guard in the mine cart uses the revolver during the chase.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver with a lanyard ring that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.
[[Image:S&W-Victory-Model.jpg‎|thumb|300px|none|Smith & Wesson Model M&P Revolver similar to the one filmed falling out the window of the car. This revolver is a WWII wartime "Victory" model with the lanyard ring.]]
[[Image:IDTOD 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Indy's revolver drops out the window, the cylinder pin clip is visible, identifying it as a Smith & Wesson Revolver and not a Colt.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

[[Image:TODgang.jpg|thumb|550px|none|Closeup of Smith & Wesson Model 10 and Colt Official Police.]]

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

[[Image:IJTD-WaiterGun2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|"Good service here."]]

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

[[File:Webley 38 Mk III.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Webley .38 Mk. III - .38 S&W]]
[[Image:MKIII2.jpg|thumb|none|400px|This is a photo of the actual screen-used Webley Mk. III Commercial Contract]]
[[Image:IJTD-TableGunA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Chen holds the Webley Mk. III under a napkin at the table after shooting Wu Han. Note that this is a reversed shot (he's holding the revolver in his left hand and the logo on his scarf is on the wrong side).]]
[[Image:IJTD-TopBreak2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chen pulls his Webley Mk. III but is 'skewered' by Indy. Here the gun is in his right hand.]]

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928 Thompson==
Lao Che's son Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]] in the opening sequence. Note that the gun used by Kao Kan has a compensator, the one that is fired out of the car doesn't.
[[Image:M1928.jpg|thumb|none|500px|M1928 "Tommy Gun" .45 ACP]]
[[Image:IJTD-M1928a.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]]]]

[[Image:IJTD-M1928NoCuttsA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Thompson lacking the compensator fired during the Shanghai chase.]]

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1]] was used by the Indian Army against the Temple of Doom guards at the Bridge scene. This is anachronistic as the film is set in 1935 yet the Lee Enfield No 4 was not issued until 1939 and not officially adopted until 1941. Instead they should be armed with the older SMLE No 1 MkIII.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1LineupA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers firing the Lee-Enfield rifles]]
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1HoldFireA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers holding their rifles]]

One noteworthy scene is of an Royal Indian Army soldier having difficulty with his No 4. Mk 1 rifle. In the sequence the soldiers are cycling the bolts and firing as rapidly as they can. Being blanks there is no recoil, so the soldiers are almost 'short stroking' the cycling of the action. This soldier extracts a spent cartridge by pulling back on his bolt handle, but he does it only about 3/4th of the way before the empty brass breaks loose from the extractor claw, so he tries to load a fresh round out of the magazine '''before''' he has successfully extracted the expended brass. He struggles with two cartridges (one unspent, one spent) both jammed into the chamber, whereas after a few seconds, he pulls back hard on the bolt and both cartridges fly out, thus clearing the weapon. Thus the so called 'jam' seen on screen is purely '''operator error'''.
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1JamA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Soldier on the left suffers a failure to extract, causing two cartridges to get stuck in the chamber.]]

==Mauser Gewehr 1898==
A [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle was seen slung over the shoulder of a Chinese soldier at the Shanghai airport.
[[Image:Mauser g98.jpg|thumb|none|550px|Mauser Gewehr 1898 7.92x57mm Mauser]]
[[Image:IDTOD 10.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle was seen slung over the shoulder of a Chinese soldier at the Shanghai airport.]]

==Martini Henry==
The [[Martini-Henry Rifle Series|Martini Henry]] was used by the Temple of Doom Thuggees during the fight in the Mine and during the Mine Cart chase.

[[Image:Martini-HenryMarkIV (1888-1889).jpg|thumb|none|500px|Martini-Henry Mk. IV (1888-1889) .577-.450 caliber.]]

Is Indy's revolver here the Webley Mark VI or the WG Army? Please help confirm. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 00:45, 26 October 2012 (EDT)

During the Castle sequence, Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]])is briefly seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] while searching for the room his father ([[Sean Connery]])

It is Webley Mk VI, in the first screenshot you can see the cylinder cam and holster guide on the right side of the frame which are absent on a WG. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 04:50, 26 October 2012 (EDT)

NOTE: This recently added information regarding the MK-VI may not be correct. Information provided by records from the prop house that provided the firearms for all 4 movies shows that there was never a mention of a MK-VI rented for the films. Only the Webley WG.

You can see that the screen shots below do not conclusively show it to be a MK-VI. A matter of fact the top (castle) and bottom (biplane) are both the Webley WG and not the MK-VI. It is easy to identify, as the WG has a flat area in front of the trigger guard that is almost an inch long. The MK-VI does not. The WG also has a longer body and cylinder compaired to the MK-VI which makes differentiating the two relatively easy. Please enlarge those pictures and look for your self. You can clearly see the flat area in front of the trigger gaurd and the longer cylinder in the top and bottom photos proving it to be a Webley WG. The middle photo is too dark to see much of anything.

The handgun Indy uses in The Last Crusade has been misidentified as the MK-VI for many years so it is suggested that this information remain posted so that the readers can judge for themselves.--[[User:Jags|Jags]] ([[User talk:Jags|talk]]) 16:31, 17 December 2012 (EST)

==Webley "WG" Army Model==
The revolver that Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) uses is a [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] when he is seen taking it out of his waistband to shoot at an oncoming German fighter plane, only to find it with no ammo. He is later seen firing it when chasing the German tank that holds his father and Marcus Brody.

==Walther PPK==
Walter Donovan ([[Julian Glover]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm. He first holds the pistol on Indiana and then on Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. It has been said that the use of a PPK to shoot Connery's character was intentional as a nod to the [[James Bond]] films (in which he carried a PPK). Another weapon of this model is used by the female German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father when they are tied up in the room that's set on fire.

==Walther P38==
The [[Walther P38]] is a very common weapon in this film, used by a large majority of the German Soldiers and Officers. It is also seen used by Indy during the tank chase, using one to shoot three German Soldiers in a row. Later in the caves, Sallah ([[John Rhys-Davies]]) is seen armed with the Walther P38.

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08]] is the sidearm of Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]).
[[Image:P08Luger1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Luger P08 9mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.]]

==Mauser C96==
Kazim and his men in the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword use [[Mauser C96]] pistols in Venice, most notably used to pistol whip Marcus Brody, knocking him out.

==Single Action Army==
A 4 3/4 inch Colt [[Single Action Army]] revolver is carried by the grey haired grave robber during the circus train chase. He points it at young Indy after he is pulled from the lion's boxcar. It is also known as a Colt 1873 "Peacemaker".

=Submachine Guns=
==MP40==
The German Soldiers in the Castle all use [[MP40]] SMGs as their weapon of choice. Indy takes one from a German Officer and uses it to gun down the German Soldiers that threaten him and his father, he later drops it when Vogel holds Elsa Schneider ([[Alison Doody]]) at gunpoint. As the film is set in 1938, this would be an anachronism, but artistic license "could" be claimed by saying they are meant to depict the earlier MP38 (which would be less available as a prop). At least the use of MP28 & MP35 SMGs lends more accuracy than the universal use of MP38/40's in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', which was set in 1936.

[[File:IJTLC 101.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy opens fire with the MP40. Note that Harrison Ford is shooting left handed because he disarmed the SS soldier akwardly.]]

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

[[Image:IJLC-MP28NoLatchA.jpg‎|thumb|none|601px|The receiver catch comes undone, and Kazim ditches the gun afterwards rather than try to fix the problem.]]

==Beretta Model 38/42 (mocked up as a Villar-Perosa Mod 15)==
In the scene where Indy and his father escape the Zeppelin, they are attacked by 2 German fighter airplanes. Indy's father uses a Villar-Perosa Mod 15 mounted on the biplane to try and hold off the fighters, but accidentally shoots the biplane's tail. While the gun is clearly SUPPOSED to be a Villar Perosa Mod 15, the actual prop used was built by mating two upside-down [[Beretta Model 38|Beretta Model 38/42]] submachine guns. This explains the straight magazines and why it really doesn't look too much like a Villar-Perosa.

[[Image:IJLC-PlaneGun07aaaaa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Prof. Jones unintentionally shoots up the plane's tail, later claiming that the fighters did it.]]

==Bergmann MP35/I==
When the Brotherhood members attack the German Convoy looking for the Holy Grail, the German Soldiers are seen using [[Bergmann MP35/I]]s.
[[Image:MP35.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Bergmann MP35/I]]
[[Image:IJLC-Bergman-MP35a.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Two German Soldiers fire their MP35s at the retreating Brotherhood members.]]

=Rifles=
==Karabiner 98K==
Another weapon used by the German Soldiers throughout the Film is the [[Karabiner 98k]]. K98 rifles are also used by the Cultists that attack the German Convoy.
[[Image:Karabiner-98K.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Karabiner 98k - German manufacture 1937 date - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==M1916 Spanish Mauser==
Previously identified incorrectly as a Karabiner 98k. It differs in its handguard (extends behind rear sight), bayonet lug (located below stock), and forward sling mount (flexible). The K98 has a shorter handguard, bayonet lug between the barrel and the cleaning rod, and a fixed sling mount.

[[Image:IJLC-K98Kazim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Kazim looks down at the German Soldiers below with his M1916 rifle at the ready.]]

==Czech vz. 24==
A member of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword fires a Czech vz. 24 rifle at the Germans. Sometimes incorrectly identified in this scene as a Karabiner 98k. It has a straight bolt handle, a handguard that extends behind the rear sight, and two different forward sling mounts, one under and one at the side. That fits the profile of the Czech vz. 24. The K98 does not have any of these features.

[[Image:IJLC-K98RifleA.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A member of the Brotherhood fires a vz. 24 rifle at the Germans.]]

=Other=
==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
German Soldiers use the [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] (Potato Masher) stick grenades against the members of the Brotherhood.
[[Image:24-43 grenade.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]
[[Image:IJLC-StickGrenadeA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|A German lobs a [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] at the members of the Brotherhood.]]

==Fighter Plane Machine Guns==
A German fighter plane opens fire on the biplane carrying Indy and his father. In reality, the plane was a Pilatus P-2, a Swiss-manufactured training aircraft flown primarily by the Swiss Air Force, but widely seen used in productions as a substitute for German fighters.
[[File:IJTLC 133.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The German fighter plane opens fire with its fuselage-mounted machine guns.]]

=Trivia Special=

===Republic of Hatay===
* The "Republic of Hatay" did exist from 1937 to 1939. But was wrongly portrayed as an Arab Monarchy with a Sultan rather than Turkish as it was.

===Replica WWI Tank===
* A mock Mark VIII Liberty Tank was built from a 28 ton excavator chassis and fitted with a top mounted turret.
[[Image:Tank.jpg|thumb|none|Mark VIII Liberty Tank of Anglo-American origin.]]

[[Image:IJLC-Tankcollidesa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Cinematography Goof: Position of the Sun===
* When Indy is watching the German column in Hatay, they spot him when the sun glints off of his binoculars (an amateur mistake that Dr. Indiana Jones would probably not make), but when the camera goes to closeup of Indiana, his father and Sallah, the sun is to their backs, ergo, light reflecting off of Indy's binoculars would be impossible.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

2012-12-08T09:20:33Z

Jags: /* Webley Mk VI */

[[Image:LC.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' (1989)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Webley Mk VI==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] as his sidearm. He is seen with the revolver while in the Brunwald Castle searching for the room his father Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]) was being held. He later is seen firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.

'''NOTE: This recently added information regarding the MK-VI may not be correct. Information provided by records from the prop house that provided the firearms for all 4 movies shows that there was never a mention of a MK-VI rented for the films. Only the Webley WG.'''

'''You can see that the screen shots below do not conclusively show it to be a MK-VI. A matter of fact the top (castle) and bottom (biplane) are both the Webley WG and not the MK-VI. It is easy to identify, as the WG has a flat area in front of the trigger guard that is almost an inch long. The MK-VI does not. The WG also has a longer body and cylinder compaired to the MK-VI which makes differentiating the two relatively easy. Please enlarge those pictures and look for your self. You can clearly see the flat area in front of the trigger gaurd in the top and bottom pics proving it to be a Webley WG. The middle pic is too dark to see much of anything.'''

'''The handgun Indy uses in The Last Crusade has been misidentified as the MK-VI for many years so it is suggested that this information remain posted so that the readers can judge for themselves.'''

[[File:IJTLC 200.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] while searching for his father in the castle '''Note: The target sight pin which indicates it's not the "WG" used later in the film'''.]]

[[File:IJTLC 217.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.]]

==Webley "WG" Army Model==
The revolver that Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) uses is a [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] when he is seen taking it out of his waistband to shoot at an oncoming German fighter plane, only to find it with no ammo. He is later seen firing it when chasing the German tank that holds his father and Marcus Brody.

==Walther PPK==
Walter Donovan ([[Julian Glover]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm. He first holds the pistol on Indiana and then on Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. It has been said that the use of a PPK to shoot Connery's character was intentional as a nod to the [[James Bond]] films (in which he carried a PPK). Another weapon of this model is used by the female German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father when they are tied up in the room that's set on fire.

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

Jags: /* Webley Mk VI */

[[Image:LC.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' (1989)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Webley Mk VI==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] as his sidearm. He is seen with the revolver while in the Brunwald Castle searching for the room his father Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]) was being held. He later is seen firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.

'''NOTE: This recently added information regarding the MK-VI may not be correct. Info provided by records from the prop house that provided the firearms for all 4 movies shows that there was never a mention of a MK-VI rented for the films. Only the Webley WG.'''

'''You can see that the screen shots below do not conclusively show it to be a MK-VI. A matter of fact the top (castle) and bottom (biplane) are both the Webley WG and not the MK-VI. It is easy to identify, as the WG has a flat area in front of the trigger guard that is almost an inch long. The MK-VI does not. The WG also has a longer body and cylinder compaired to the MK-VI which makes differentiating the two relatively easy. Please enlarge those pictures and look for your self. You can clearly see the flat area in front of the trigger gaurd in the top and bottom pics proving it to be a Webley WG. The middle pic is too dark to see much of anything.'''

'''The handgun Indy uses in The Last Crusade has been misidentified as the MK-VI for many years so it is suggested that this information remain posted so that the readers can judge for themselves.'''

==Webley "WG" Army Model==
The revolver that Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) uses is a [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] when he is seen taking it out of his waistband to shoot at an oncoming German fighter plane, only to find it with no ammo. He is later seen firing it when chasing the German tank that holds his father and Marcus Brody.

==Walther PPK==
Walter Donovan ([[Julian Glover]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm. He first holds the pistol on Indiana and then on Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. It has been said that the use of a PPK to shoot Connery's character was intentional as a nod to the [[James Bond]] films (in which he carried a PPK). Another weapon of this model is used by the female German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father when they are tied up in the room that's set on fire.

==Walther P38==
The [[Walther P38]] is a very common weapon in this film, used by a large majority of the German Soldiers and Officers. It is also seen used by Indy during the tank chase, using one to shoot three German Soldiers in a row. Later in the caves, Sallah ([[John Rhys-Davies]]) is seen armed with the Walther P38.

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08]] is the sidearm of Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]).
[[Image:P08Luger1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Luger P08 9mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.]]

[[Image:IJLC-LugerA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|During the tank chase, Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]) aims his Luger P08 at Indy.]]

==Mauser C96==
Kazim and his men in the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword use [[Mauser C96]] pistols in Venice, most notably used to pistol whip Marcus Brody, knocking him out.

[[Image:IJLC-C96BoatChaseA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|A Brotherhood member grapples with Indiana Jones, almost shooting Elsa Schneider as she tries to pilot the speedboat.]]

==Single Action Army==
A 4 3/4 inch Colt [[Single Action Army]] revolver is carried by the grey haired grave robber during the circus train chase. He points it at young Indy after he is pulled from the lion's boxcar. It is also known as a Colt 1873 "Peacemaker".

[[Image:IJTLC 100.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A 4 3/4 inch Colt [[Single Action Army]] revolver is carried by the grey haired grave robber during the circus train chase.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==MP40==
The German Soldiers in the Castle all use [[MP40]] SMGs as their weapon of choice. Indy takes one from a German Officer and uses it to gun down the German Soldiers that threaten him and his father, he later drops it when Vogel holds Elsa Schneider ([[Alison Doody]]) at gunpoint. As the film is set in 1938, this would be an anachronism, but artistic license "could" be claimed by saying they are meant to depict the earlier MP38 (which would be less available as a prop). At least the use of MP28 & MP35 SMGs lends more accuracy than the universal use of MP38/40's in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', which was set in 1936.

[[File:IJTLC 101.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy opens fire with the MP40. Note that Harrison Ford is shooting left handed because he disarmed the SS soldier akwardly.]]

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

[[Image:IJLC-MP28NoLatchA.jpg‎|thumb|none|601px|The receiver catch comes undone, and Kazim ditches the gun afterwards rather than try to fix the problem.]]

==Beretta Model 38/42 (mocked up as a Villar-Perosa Mod 15)==
In the scene where Indy and his father escape the Zeppelin, they are attacked by 2 German fighter airplanes. Indy's father uses a Villar-Perosa Mod 15 mounted on the biplane to try and hold off the fighters, but accidentally shoots the biplane's tail. While the gun is clearly SUPPOSED to be a Villar Perosa Mod 15, the actual prop used was built by mating two upside-down [[Beretta Model 38|Beretta Model 38/42]] submachine guns. This explains the straight magazines and why it really doesn't look too much like a Villar-Perosa.

[[Image:IJLC-PlaneGun07aaaaa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Prof. Jones unintentionally shoots up the plane's tail, later claiming that the fighters did it.]]

==Bergmann MP35/I==
When the Brotherhood members attack the German Convoy looking for the Holy Grail, the German Soldiers are seen using [[Bergmann MP35/I]]s.
[[Image:MP35.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Bergmann MP35/I]]
[[Image:IJLC-Bergman-MP35a.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Two German Soldiers fire their MP35s at the retreating Brotherhood members.]]

=Rifles=
==Karabiner 98K==
Another weapon used by the German Soldiers throughout the Film is the [[Karabiner 98k]]. K98 rifles are also used by the Cultists that attack the German Convoy.
[[Image:Karabiner-98K.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Karabiner 98k - German manufacture 1937 date - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]
[[Image:IJLC-K98Deserta.jpg‎ |thumb|none|600px|A German Soldier armed with a [[Karabiner 98k]] prepares to do battle with the Cultists]]

==M1916 Spanish Mauser==
Previously identified incorrectly as a Karabiner 98k. It differs in its handguard (extends behind rear sight), bayonet lug (located below stock), and forward sling mount (flexible). The K98 has a shorter handguard, bayonet lug between the barrel and the cleaning rod, and a fixed sling mount.
[[Image:1916-Spanish Mauser-.jpg|400px|thumb|none|M1916 Spanish Mauser ]]
[[Image:IJLC-K98Kazim.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Kazim looks down at the German Soldiers below with his M1916 rifle at the ready.]]

==Czech vz. 24==
A member of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword fires a Czech vz. 24 rifle at the Germans. Sometimes incorrectly identified in this scene as a Karabiner 98k. It has a straight bolt handle, a handguard that extends behind the rear sight, and two different forward sling mounts, one under and one at the side. That fits the profile of the Czech vz. 24. The K98 does not have any of these features.

[[Image:IJLC-K98RifleA.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A member of the Brotherhood fires a vz. 24 rifle at the Germans.]]

=Other=
==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
German Soldiers use the [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] (Potato Masher) stick grenades against the members of the Brotherhood.

[[Image:IJLC-StickGrenadeA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|A German lobs a [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] at the members of the Brotherhood.]]

==Fighter Plane Machine Guns==
A German fighter plane opens fire on the biplane carrying Indy and his father. In reality, the plane was a Pilatus P-2, a Swiss-manufactured training aircraft flown primarily by the Swiss Air Force, but widely seen used in productions as a substitute for German fighters.
[[File:IJTLC 133.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The German fighter plane opens fire with its fuselage-mounted machine guns.]]

=Trivia Special=

===Republic of Hatay===
* The "Republic of Hatay" did exist from 1937 to 1939. But was wrongly portrayed as an Arab Monarchy with a Sultan rather than Turkish as it was.

===Replica WWI Tank===
* A mock Mark VIII Liberty Tank was built from a 28 ton excavator chassis and fitted with a top mounted turret.
[[Image:Tank.jpg|thumb|none|Mark VIII Liberty Tank of Anglo-American origin.]]
[[Image:IJLC-HatayTankA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|]]
[[Image:IJLC-Tankcollidesa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Cinematography Goof: Position of the Sun===
* When Indy is watching the German column in Hatay, they spot him when the sun glints off of his binoculars (an amateur mistake that Dr. Indiana Jones would probably not make), but when the camera goes to closeup of Indiana, his father and Sallah, the sun is to their backs, ergo, light reflecting off of Indy's binoculars would be impossible.

=Rifles=
==Karabiner 98K==
Another weapon used by the German Soldiers throughout the Film is the [[Karabiner 98k]]. K98 rifles are also used by the Cultists that attack the German Convoy.

==M1916 Spanish Mauser==
Previously identified incorrectly as a Karabiner 98k. It differs in its handguard (extends behind rear sight), bayonet lug (located below stock), and forward sling mount (flexible). The K98 has a shorter handguard, bayonet lug between the barrel and the cleaning rod, and a fixed sling mount.

==Czech vz. 24==
A member of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword fires a Czech vz. 24 rifle at the Germans. Sometimes incorrectly identified in this scene as a Karabiner 98k. It has a straight bolt handle, a handguard that extends behind the rear sight, and two different forward sling mounts, one under and one at the side. That fits the profile of the Czech vz. 24. The K98 does not have any of these features.

=Other=
==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
German Soldiers use the [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] (Potato Masher) stick grenades against the members of the Brotherhood.

==Fighter Plane Machine Guns==
A German fighter plane opens fire on the biplane carrying Indy and his father. In reality, the plane was a Pilatus P-2, a Swiss-manufactured training aircraft flown primarily by the Swiss Air Force, but widely seen used in productions as a substitute for German fighters.

=Trivia Special=

===Republic of Hatay===
* The "Republic of Hatay" did exist from 1937 to 1939. But was wrongly portrayed as an Arab Monarchy with a Sultan rather than Turkish as it was.

===Replica WWI Tank===
* A mock Mark VIII Liberty Tank was built from a 28 ton excavator chassis and fitted with a top mounted turret.

===Cinematography Goof: Position of the Sun===
* When Indy is watching the German column in Hatay, they spot him when the sun glints off of his binoculars (an amateur mistake that Dr. Indiana Jones would probably not make), but when the camera goes to closeup of Indiana, his father and Sallah, the sun is to their backs, ergo, light reflecting off of Indy's binoculars would be impossible.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

2012-12-08T01:12:45Z

Jags: /* Webley "WG" Army Model */

[[Image:LC.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' (1989)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Webley Mk VI==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] as his sidearm. He is seen with the revolver while in the Brunwald Castle searching for the room his father Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]) was being held. He later is seen firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.

'''NOTE: This info about the MK-VI that was just recently added to this site is not believed to be correct. Info provided by records from the prop house that provided the firearms for all 4 movies shows that there was never a mention of a MK-VI rented for the films. Only the Webley WG.'''

'''You can see that the screen shots below do not conclusively show it to be a MK-VI. A matter of fact the top (castle) and bottom (biplane) are both the Webley WG and not the MK-VI. It is easy to identify, as the WG has a flat area in front of the trigger gaurd that is almost an inch long. The MK-VI does not. Please enlarge those pictures and look for your self. You can clearly see the flat area in front of the trigger gaurd in the top and bottom pics proving it to be a Webley WG. The middle pic is too dark to see much of anything.'''

'''This handgun has been misidentified as the MK-VI for many years so let us leave this info posted so that the readers can judge for themselves.'''

[[File:IJTLC 217.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.]]

==Webley "WG" Army Model==
The revolver that Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) uses is a [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] when he is seen taking it out of his waistband to shoot at an oncoming German fighter plane, only to find it with no ammo. He is later seen firing it when chasing the German tank that holds his father and Marcus Brody.

==Walther PPK==
Walter Donovan ([[Julian Glover]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm. He first holds the pistol on Indiana and then on Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. It has been said that the use of a PPK to shoot Connery's character was intentional as a nod to the [[James Bond]] films (in which he carried a PPK). Another weapon of this model is used by the female German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father when they are tied up in the room that's set on fire.

==Walther P38==
The [[Walther P38]] is a very common weapon in this film, used by a large majority of the German Soldiers and Officers. It is also seen used by Indy during the tank chase, using one to shoot three German Soldiers in a row. Later in the caves, Sallah ([[John Rhys-Davies]]) is seen armed with the Walther P38.

[[Image:IJLC-P38a.jpg‎|thumb|none|601px|Marcus Brody ([[Denholm Elliott]]) stares down the barrel of a [[Walther P38]].]]

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08]] is the sidearm of Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]).
[[Image:P08Luger1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Luger P08 9mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.]]

[[Image:IJLC-LugerA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|During the tank chase, Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]) aims his Luger P08 at Indy.]]

==Mauser C96==
Kazim and his men in the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword use [[Mauser C96]] pistols in Venice, most notably used to pistol whip Marcus Brody, knocking him out.
[[Image:C96Pistol.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Pre-War dated Mauser C96 "Broomhandle" Commercial Version - 7.63x25mm Mauser. ]]

==Single Action Army==
A 4 3/4 inch Colt [[Single Action Army]] revolver is carried by the grey haired grave robber during the circus train chase. He points it at young Indy after he is pulled from the lion's boxcar. It is also known as a Colt 1873 "Peacemaker".

[[Image:IJTLC 100.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A 4 3/4 inch Colt [[Single Action Army]] revolver is carried by the grey haired grave robber during the circus train chase.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==MP40==
The German Soldiers in the Castle all use [[MP40]] SMGs as their weapon of choice. Indy takes one from a German Officer and uses it to gun down the German Soldiers that threaten him and his father, he later drops it when Vogel holds Elsa Schneider ([[Alison Doody]]) at gunpoint. As the film is set in 1938, this would be an anachronism, but artistic license "could" be claimed by saying they are meant to depict the earlier MP38 (which would be less available as a prop). At least the use of MP28 & MP35 SMGs lends more accuracy than the universal use of MP38/40's in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', which was set in 1936.
[[Image:MP40Side.jpg|thumb|none|500px|MP40 submachine gun - 9x19mm]]

[[File:IJTLC 101.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy opens fire with the MP40. Note that Harrison Ford is shooting left handed because he disarmed the SS soldier akwardly.]]

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

[[Image:IJLC-MP28NoLatchA.jpg‎|thumb|none|601px|The receiver catch comes undone, and Kazim ditches the gun afterwards rather than try to fix the problem.]]

==Beretta Model 38/42 (mocked up as a Villar-Perosa Mod 15)==
In the scene where Indy and his father escape the Zeppelin, they are attacked by 2 German fighter airplanes. Indy's father uses a Villar-Perosa Mod 15 mounted on the biplane to try and hold off the fighters, but accidentally shoots the biplane's tail. While the gun is clearly SUPPOSED to be a Villar Perosa Mod 15, the actual prop used was built by mating two upside-down [[Beretta Model 38|Beretta Model 38/42]] submachine guns. This explains the straight magazines and why it really doesn't look too much like a Villar-Perosa.

[[Image:IJLC-PlaneGun07aaaaa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Prof. Jones unintentionally shoots up the plane's tail, later claiming that the fighters did it.]]

==Bergmann MP35/I==
When the Brotherhood members attack the German Convoy looking for the Holy Grail, the German Soldiers are seen using [[Bergmann MP35/I]]s.
[[Image:MP35.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Bergmann MP35/I]]

=Submachine Guns=
==MP40==
The German Soldiers in the Castle all use [[MP40]] SMGs as their weapon of choice. Indy takes one from a German Officer and uses it to gun down the German Soldiers that threaten him and his father, he later drops it when Vogel holds Elsa Schneider ([[Alison Doody]]) at gunpoint. As the film is set in 1938, this would be an anachronism, but artistic license "could" be claimed by saying they are meant to depict the earlier MP38 (which would be less available as a prop). At least the use of MP28 & MP35 SMGs lends more accuracy than the universal use of MP38/40's in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', which was set in 1936.

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

==Beretta Model 38/42 (mocked up as a Villar-Perosa Mod 15)==
In the scene where Indy and his father escape the Zeppelin, they are attacked by 2 German fighter airplanes. Indy's father uses a Villar-Perosa Mod 15 mounted on the biplane to try and hold off the fighters, but accidentally shoots the biplane's tail. While the gun is clearly SUPPOSED to be a Villar Perosa Mod 15, the actual prop used was built by mating two upside-down [[Beretta Model 38|Beretta Model 38/42]] submachine guns. This explains the straight magazines and why it really doesn't look too much like a Villar-Perosa.

==Bergmann MP35/I==
When the Brotherhood members attack the German Convoy looking for the Holy Grail, the German Soldiers are seen using [[Bergmann MP35/I]]s.

[[Image:IJLC-Bergman-MP35a.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Two German Soldiers fire their MP35s at the retreating Brotherhood members.]]

=Rifles=
==Karabiner 98K==
Another weapon used by the German Soldiers throughout the Film is the [[Karabiner 98k]]. K98 rifles are also used by the Cultists that attack the German Convoy.
[[Image:Karabiner-98K.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Karabiner 98k - German manufacture 1937 date - 7.92x57mm Mauser]]

==M1916 Spanish Mauser==
Previously identified incorrectly as a Karabiner 98k. It differs in its handguard (extends behind rear sight), bayonet lug (located below stock), and forward sling mount (flexible). The K98 has a shorter handguard, bayonet lug between the barrel and the cleaning rod, and a fixed sling mount.

==Czech vz. 24==
A member of the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword fires a Czech vz. 24 rifle at the Germans. Sometimes incorrectly identified in this scene as a Karabiner 98k. It has a straight bolt handle, a handguard that extends behind the rear sight, and two different forward sling mounts, one under and one at the side. That fits the profile of the Czech vz. 24. The K98 does not have any of these features.

[[Image:IJLC-K98RifleA.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A member of the Brotherhood fires a vz. 24 rifle at the Germans.]]

=Other=
==Model 24 Stielhandgranate==
German Soldiers use the [[Model 24 Stielhandgranate]] (Potato Masher) stick grenades against the members of the Brotherhood.
[[Image:24-43 grenade.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Model 24 Stielhandgranate "Potato Masher" High-Explosive Fragmentation hand grenade]]

==Fighter Plane Machine Guns==
A German fighter plane opens fire on the biplane carrying Indy and his father. In reality, the plane was a Pilatus P-2, a Swiss-manufactured training aircraft flown primarily by the Swiss Air Force, but widely seen used in productions as a substitute for German fighters.
[[File:IJTLC 133.jpg|thumb|none|600px|The German fighter plane opens fire with its fuselage-mounted machine guns.]]

=Trivia Special=

===Republic of Hatay===
* The "Republic of Hatay" did exist from 1937 to 1939. But was wrongly portrayed as an Arab Monarchy with a Sultan rather than Turkish as it was.

===Replica WWI Tank===
* A mock Mark VIII Liberty Tank was built from a 28 ton excavator chassis and fitted with a top mounted turret.

[[Image:IJLC-Tankcollidesa.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|]]

===Cinematography Goof: Position of the Sun===
* When Indy is watching the German column in Hatay, they spot him when the sun glints off of his binoculars (an amateur mistake that Dr. Indiana Jones would probably not make), but when the camera goes to closeup of Indiana, his father and Sallah, the sun is to their backs, ergo, light reflecting off of Indy's binoculars would be impossible.

Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

2012-12-08T01:09:25Z

Jags: /* Webley Mk VI */

[[Image:LC.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade]]'' (1989)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Webley Mk VI==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] as his sidearm. He is seen with the revolver while in the Brunwald Castle searching for the room his father Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]) was being held. He later is seen firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.

'''NOTE: This info about the MK-VI that was just recently added to this site is not believed to be correct. Info provided by records from the prop house that provided the firearms for all 4 movies shows that there was never a mention of a MK-VI rented for the films. Only the Webley WG.

You can see that the screen shots below do not conclusively show it to be a MK-VI. A matter of fact the top (castle) and bottom (biplane) are both the Webley WG and not the MK-VI. It is easy to identify, as the WG has a flat area in front of the trigger gaurd that is almost an inch long. The MK-VI does not. Please enlarge those pictures and look for your self. You can clearly see the flat area in front of the trigger gaurd in the top and bottom pics proving it to be a Webley WG. The middle pic is too dark to see much of anything.

This handgun has been misidentified as the MK-VI for many years so let us leave this info posted so that the readers can judge for themselves.'''

[[File:IJTLC 200.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is first seen carrying a [[Webley Mk VI]] while searching for his father in the castle '''Note: The target sight pin which indicates it's not the "WG" used later in the film'''.]]

[[File:IJTLC 217.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Indy firing the revolver during the air battle with German fighter planes.]]

==Webley "WG" Army Model==
It appears that the revolver Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) changes to a [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] when he is seen taking it out of his waistband to shoot at an oncoming German fighter plane, only to find it with no ammo. He is later seen firing it when chasing the German tank that holds his father and Marcus Brody.

==Walther PPK==
Walter Donovan ([[Julian Glover]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]] as his sidearm. He first holds the pistol on Indiana and then on Henry Jones, Sr. ([[Sean Connery]]), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. It has been said that the use of a PPK to shoot Connery's character was intentional as a nod to the [[James Bond]] films (in which he carried a PPK). Another weapon of this model is used by the female German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father when they are tied up in the room that's set on fire.

==Walther P38==
The [[Walther P38]] is a very common weapon in this film, used by a large majority of the German Soldiers and Officers. It is also seen used by Indy during the tank chase, using one to shoot three German Soldiers in a row. Later in the caves, Sallah ([[John Rhys-Davies]]) is seen armed with the Walther P38.

==Luger P08==
A [[Luger P08]] is the sidearm of Colonel Vogel ([[Michael Byrne]]).
[[Image:P08Luger1917.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Luger P08 9mm. This is a 1917 dated handgun, thus it is a World War One firearm.]]

==Mauser C96==
Kazim and his men in the Brotherhood of the Cruciform Sword use [[Mauser C96]] pistols in Venice, most notably used to pistol whip Marcus Brody, knocking him out.

==Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II==
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim ([[Kevork Malikyan]]) attempts to use a [[Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II]] to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the receiver catch undone.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

2012-06-25T21:05:12Z

Jags: /* Smith & Wesson Model 10 */

[[Image:TOD.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]'' (1984)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

[[File:IDTOD 18.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Thuggee guard in the mine cart uses the revolver during the chase.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver with a lanyard ring that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different.

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver with a lanyard ring that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

'''The following guns were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
== Webley "WG" Army Model ==
As in ''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|The Last Crusade]]'', Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) carries a commercial [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] revolver as his main sidearm. He is seen cocking the hammer on one of the cemetery "guards", but doesn't fire it in the film.

==Tokarev TT-33==

The [[Tokarev TT-33 Pistol]] is carried by Red Army officers and KGB agents; the versions used in the film are the Chinese Type 54 copy, which would have existed at the time (the '54' refers to the year of its adoption by the PLA), but would not have been used by Russians. You can tell because they have a large safety switch and the distinctive grips of the Chinese-made Tokarevs. Russian TT-33s also have a safety, but this was forced upon importers after 1990 by the ATF, so many Soviet Era TT-33 pistols were drilled out and had a safety installed by importers in the 1990s.

[[Image:Spalko2.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Screen used Tokarev in display case.]]

==Browning Hi-Power==
A [[Browning Hi-Power]] is used by "George 'Mac' McHale" ([[Ray Winstone]]) at the end of the movie. Mac's BHP has an external extractor, which wasn't introduced until 1963. It also has the higher profile adjustible "beer can" sights.
[[Image:HPTaar.jpg|thumb|none|350px|Browning Hi-Power 9mm]]
[[Image:IJKCS-HP.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Mac holds the HP on Indy and Mutt.]]

==Colt M1911==
Colonel Dovchenko, disguised as US Army Colonel "Truman," had a [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]].
This prop pistol was used by actors playing Russians disguised a United States Army soldiers in the 2008 return of Indy- Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This plastic and metal dummy Colt 1911 pistol, actually an airsoft gun (no longer capable of firing pellets), is a highly detailed copy of a real Colt 1911 pistol. Dummy pistols such as these are used during filming when a real firearm is not necessary as the actor is not firing the gun. They are also used for background actors to fill out the number of weapons in a scene, or as "holster stuffers." Keen eyes will catch that the "Prop Store of London"'s "official" version is an M1911A1, not an M1911, so the replica gun doesn't exactly match the blank firing weapon used on set.

=Rifles=
==M1 & M2 Carbine==
[[M1 Carbine|M1 and M2 Carbines]] are used by the Russians posing as US Army soldiers and by Indiana Jones at the beginning of the film. Most of them are fitted with 30 round magazines. The ones with 15rd magazines are most likely non-firing plastic replicas.

[[Image:IJKCS2-M1A.jpg|thumb|601px|none|M1's are slung over the shoulders of the guards that carry the mysterious Area 51 crate. Also seen where Indy got the idea for his escape.]]

==Norinco Type 56-1==

Almost all of the [[AK-47]]-type rifles in this movie are stamped-receiver Chinese [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Norinco Type 56]]s (fixed stock) and [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]]s (folding stock), including the one used by Cate Blanchett during the chase. Aside from the fact that Russians should not be using Chinese-made weapons, AKs with stamped receivers didn't exist until 1959, and the Chinese didn't go to the stamped receivers until 1963. So, although AKs were around then, these particular models are an anachronism. There is a very good possibility that the production crew used the Norinco Type 56 rifles as a "stand-in" for the Russian AK-47s since there are not many genuine Russian AK-47s in the US as well as the Type 56 looking like the original Russian-made AK-47 rifles from a distance (the Norinco Type 56 rifles have a smooth receiver cover that is similar to the ones used on the original Russian AK-47 rifles). Also, the folding-stock model wasn't made until the early 60's, though the ones used might simply be stand-ins for AKS-47 rifles.

=Submachine Guns=
==Thompson M1921AC==

The [[Thompson Submachine Gun]] held by Mac ([[Ray Winstone]]) in Hangar 51 is a Colt M1921AC with a horizontal foregrip on it to update the weapon to the 1950's.

== Thompson M1928A1 ==

The [[Thompson Submachine Gun]] seen in the hands of the Russians posing as US Army soldiers at the beginning of the film. The M1928A1s seen in the hands of the Russians had horizontal foregrips, 30 round magazines, and Cutts compensators fitted on the muzzle.

[[Image:IJ4 Thompson 2.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Rubber Thompson used in the scene.]]

=Machine Guns=
==Browning M1919A6==
A [[Browning M1919A6]] machine gun with the stock removed is seen on the Russian amphibious Jeep in this movie, It is lost during the waterfall scene. It is possible this weapon could be a 'captured example' from WWII/Korea used by the Soviets prior to the PK machine gun, or on lease from Communist South American countries aiding the Soviets. A more likely possibility that the weapon was an attempt (a fairly poor one at that) to imitate the design of the Soviet KPV.

A Russian posing as a US Army soldier is seen armed with a [[Winchester Model 1897]] shotgun at the beginning of the film.

=Other=
==Type 69 RPG==

A Chinese [[RPG-7#Type 69|Type 69 RPG]], a copy of the [[RPG-7]] is seen in a poster for the film, and is fired by Indy in the trailer. This is not historically accurate, as the movie is set in 1957, and the [[RPG-7]] was not adopted by the Soviet Union until 1961. In the film, the weapon seems to have been modified to fire a PG-2 antitank grenade (a round which only the RPG-2 can fire), but the launcher itself is clearly not an RPG-2 (you can tell it's a Type 69 copy because it has the folding carry handle and thicker heat shield). It is more than likely that the Type 69 was used as a "stand-in" for the Russian [[RPG-2]], which was in use with the Red Army in 1957.

[[Image:IJKCS-RPG.jpg|thumb|600px|none|"I'd cover my ears if I were you". Indy prepares to fire the Type 69.]]

=Trivia=
In the United States, the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) does not allow firearms to be directly pointed at a person in the same screenshot in movie trailers that are deemed "approved for appropriate audiences" (so-called "Green Band" trailers). Thus, the studio resorts to CGI to disguise this fact. Below is an example:
[[Image:IndyK12.jpg|thumb|600px|none|A screenshot from the US "Green Band" trailer. Note how the soldier in front is holding the M1 Carbine down, the protruding arm holding the Thompson on the left side, and the soldier with the Thompson in the back is holding the weapon to his side.]]

'''The following guns were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
== Webley "WG" Army Model ==
As in ''[[Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade|The Last Crusade]]'', Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) carries a commercial [[Webley "WG" Army Model]] revolver as his main sidearm. He is seen cocking the hammer on one of the cemetery "guards", but doesn't fire it in the film.

==Tokarev TT-33==

The [[Tokarev TT-33 Pistol]] is carried by Red Army officers and KGB agents; the versions used in the film are the Chinese Type 54 copy, which would have existed at the time (the '54' refers to the year of its adoption by the PLA), but would not have been used by Russians. You can tell because they have a large safety switch and the distinctive grips of the Chinese-made Tokarevs. Russian TT-33s also have a safety, but this was forced upon importers after 1990 by the ATF, so many Soviet Era TT-33 pistols were drilled out and had a safety installed by importers in the 1990s.

[[Image:Spalko2.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Screen used Tokarev in display case.]]

==Browning Hi-Power==
A [[Browning Hi-Power]] is used by "George 'Mac' McHale" ([[Ray Winstone]]) at the end of the movie. Mac's BHP has an external extractor, which wasn't introduced until 1963. It also has the higher profile adjustible sights.

[[Image:IJKCS-HP.jpg|thumb|600px|none|Mac holds the HP on Indy and Mutt.]]

==Colt M1911==
Colonel Dovchenko, disguised as US Army Colonel "Truman," had a [[M1911 pistol series|Colt M1911]].
This prop pistol was used by actors playing Russians disguised a United States Army soldiers in the 2008 return of Indy- Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. This plastic and metal dummy Colt 1911 pistol, actually an airsoft gun (no longer capable of firing pellets), is a highly detailed copy of a real Colt 1911 pistol. Dummy pistols such as these are used during filming when a real firearm is not necessary as the actor is not firing the gun. They are also used for background actors to fill out the number of weapons in a scene, or as "holster stuffers." Keen eyes will catch that the "Prop Store of London"'s "official" version is an M1911A1, not an M1911, so the replica gun doesn't exactly match the blank firing weapon used on set.

=Rifles=
==M1 & M2 Carbine==
[[M1 Carbine|M1 and M2 Carbines]] are used by the Russians posing as US Army soldiers and by Indiana Jones at the beginning of the film. Most of them are fitted with 30 round magazines. The ones with 15rd magazines are most likely non-firing plastic replicas.

[[Image:IJKCS2-M1A.jpg|thumb|601px|none|M1's are slung over the shoulders of the guards that carry the mysterious Area 51 crate. Also seen where Indy got the idea for his escape.]]

==Norinco Type 56-1==

Almost all of the [[AK-47]]-type rifles in this movie are stamped-receiver Chinese [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Norinco Type 56]]s (fixed stock) and [[AK-47#Norinco Type 56|Type 56-1]]s (folding stock), including the one used by Cate Blanchett during the chase. Aside from the fact that Russians should not be using Chinese-made weapons, AKs with stamped receivers didn't exist until 1959, and the Chinese didn't go to the stamped receivers until 1963. So, although AKs were around then, these particular models are an anachronism. There is a very good possibility that the production crew used the Norinco Type 56 rifles as a "stand-in" for the Russian AK-47s since there are not many genuine Russian AK-47s in the US as well as the Type 56 looking like the original Russian-made AK-47 rifles from a distance (the Norinco Type 56 rifles have a smooth receiver cover that is similar to the ones used on the original Russian AK-47 rifles). Also, the folding-stock model wasn't made until the early 60's, though the ones used might simply be stand-ins for AKS-47 rifles.

[[Image:Type56S.jpg|thumb|400px|none|Norinco Type 56-1 7.62x39mm.]]

=Submachine Guns=
==Thompson M1921AC==

The [[Thompson Submachine Gun]] held by Mac ([[Ray Winstone]]) in Hangar 51 is a Colt M1921AC with a horizontal foregrip on it to update the weapon to the 1950's.

== Thompson M1928A1 ==

The [[Thompson Submachine Gun]] seen in the hands of the Russians posing as US Army soldiers at the beginning of the film. The M1928A1s seen in the hands of the Russians had horizontal foregrips, 30 round magazines, and Cutts compensators fitted on the muzzle.

=Machine Guns=
==Browning M1919A6==
A [[Browning M1919A6]] machine gun with the stock removed is seen on the Russian amphibious Jeep in this movie, It is lost during the waterfall scene. It is possible this weapon could be a 'captured example' from WWII/Korea used by the Soviets prior to the PK machine gun, or on lease from Communist South American countries aiding the Soviets. A more likely possibility that the weapon was an attempt (a fairly poor one at that) to imitate the design of the Soviet KPV.

=Shotguns=
== Winchester Model 1897 ==

A Russian posing as a US Army soldier is seen armed with a [[Winchester Model 1897]] shotgun at the beginning of the film.

=Other=
==Type 69 RPG==

A Chinese [[RPG-7#Type 69|Type 69 RPG]], a copy of the [[RPG-7]] is seen in a poster for the film, and is fired by Indy in the trailer. This is not historically accurate, as the movie is set in 1957, and the [[RPG-7]] was not adopted by the Soviet Union until 1961. In the film, the weapon seems to have been modified to fire a PG-2 antitank grenade (a round which only the RPG-2 can fire), but the launcher itself is clearly not an RPG-2 (you can tell it's a Type 69 copy because it has the folding carry handle and thicker heat shield). It is more than likely that the Type 69 was used as a "stand-in" for the Russian [[RPG-2]], which was in use with the Red Army in 1957.

=Trivia=
In the United States, the MPAA (Motion Picture Association of America) does not allow firearms to be directly pointed at a person in the same screenshot in movie trailers that are deemed "approved for appropriate audiences" (so-called "Green Band" trailers). Thus, the studio resorts to CGI to disguise this fact. Below is an example:
[[Image:IndyK12.jpg|thumb|600px|none|A screenshot from the US "Green Band" trailer. Note how the soldier in front is holding the M1 Carbine down, the protruding arm holding the Thompson on the left side, and the soldier with the Thompson in the back is holding the weapon to his side.]]

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

Jags: /* Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel) */

[[Image:TOD.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]'' (1984)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.
[[Image:S&W Model M&P.jpg|thumb|300px|none|Smith & Wesson Model M&P Revolver similar to the one filmed falling out the window of the car.]]
[[Image:IDTOD 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Indy's revolver drops out the window, the cylinder pin clip is visible, identifying it as a Smith & Wesson Revolver and not a Colt.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

[[File:Webley 38 Mk III.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Webley .38 Mk. III - .38 S&W]]

[[Image:IJTD-TopBreak2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chen pulls his Webley Mk. III but is 'skewered' by Indy. Here the gun is in his right hand.]]

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928 Thompson==
Lao Che's son Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]] in the opening sequence. Note that the gun used by Kao Kan has a compensator, the one that is fired out of the car doesn't.

[[Image:IJTD-M1928NoCuttsA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Thompson lacking the compensator fired during the Shanghai chase.]]

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1]] was used by the Indian Army against the Temple of Doom guards at the Bridge scene. This is anachronistic as the film is set in 1935 yet the Lee Enfield No 4 was not issued until 1939 and not officially adopted until 1941. Instead they should be armed with the older SMLE No 1 MkIII.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]

[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1HoldFireA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers holding their rifles]]

One noteworthy scene is of an Royal Indian Army soldier having difficulty with his No 4. Mk 1 rifle. In the sequence the soldiers are cycling the bolts and firing as rapidly as they can. Being blanks there is no recoil, so the soldiers are almost 'short stroking' the cycling of the action. This soldier extracts a spent cartridge by pulling back on his bolt handle, but he does it only about 3/4th of the way before the empty brass breaks loose from the extractor claw, so he tries to load a fresh round out of the magazine '''before''' he has successfully extracted the expended brass. He struggles with two cartridges (one unspent, one spent) both jammed into the chamber, whereas after a few seconds, he pulls back hard on the bolt and both cartridges fly out, thus clearing the weapon. Thus the so called 'jam' seen on screen is purely '''operator error'''.
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1JamA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Soldier on the left suffers a failure to extract, causing two cartridges to get stuck in the chamber.]]

==Mauser Gewehr 1898==

==Martini Henry==
The [[Martini-Henry Rifle Series|Martini Henry]] was used by the Temple of Doom Thuggees during the fight in the Mine and during the Mine Cart chase.

The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different.

Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

[[Image:IDTOD 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Indy's revolver drops out the window, the cylinder pin clip is visible, identifying it as a Smith & Wesson Revolver and not a Colt.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

[[Image:TODgang.jpg|thumb|550px|none|Closeup of Smith & Wesson Model 10 and Colt Official Police.]]

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

[[Image:IJTD-TableGunA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Chen holds the Webley Mk. III under a napkin at the table after shooting Wu Han. Note that this is a reversed shot (he's holding the revolver in his left hand and the logo on his scarf is on the wrong side).]]
[[Image:IJTD-TopBreak2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chen pulls his Webley Mk. III but is 'skewered' by Indy. Here the gun is in his right hand.]]

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928 Thompson==
Lao Che's son Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]] in the opening sequence. Note that the gun used by Kao Kan has a compensator, the one that is fired out of the car doesn't.

[[Image:IJTD-M1928NoCuttsA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Thompson lacking the compensator fired during the Shanghai chase.]]

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1]] was used by the Indian Army against the Temple of Doom guards at the Bridge scene. This is anachronistic as the film is set in 1935 yet the Lee Enfield No 4 was not issued until 1939 and not officially adopted until 1941. Instead they should be armed with the older SMLE No 1 MkIII.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1LineupA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers firing the Lee-Enfield rifles]]
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1HoldFireA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers holding their rifles]]

One noteworthy scene is of an Royal Indian Army soldier having difficulty with his No 4. Mk 1 rifle. In the sequence the soldiers are cycling the bolts and firing as rapidly as they can. Being blanks there is no recoil, so the soldiers are almost 'short stroking' the cycling of the action. This soldier extracts a spent cartridge by pulling back on his bolt handle, but he does it only about 3/4th of the way before the empty brass breaks loose from the extractor claw, so he tries to load a fresh round out of the magazine '''before''' he has successfully extracted the expended brass. He struggles with two cartridges (one unspent, one spent) both jammed into the chamber, whereas after a few seconds, he pulls back hard on the bolt and both cartridges fly out, thus clearing the weapon. Thus the so called 'jam' seen on screen is purely '''operator error'''.
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1JamA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Soldier on the left suffers a failure to extract, causing two cartridges to get stuck in the chamber.]]

==Mauser Gewehr 1898==
A [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle was seen slung over the shoulder of a Chinese soldier at the Shanghai airport.

[[Image:IDTOD 10.jpg|thumb|none|600px|A [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle was seen slung over the shoulder of a Chinese soldier at the Shanghai airport.]]

==Martini Henry==
The [[Martini-Henry Rifle Series|Martini Henry]] was used by the Temple of Doom Thuggees during the fight in the Mine and during the Mine Cart chase.

Webley Revolvers

2012-04-21T11:32:19Z

Jags:

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
*[[Webley Mk V]] - Adopted in 1913, the '''Mk V''' was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
*[[Webley Mk VI]] - Adopted in 1915, the '''Mk VI''' featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

[[File:Weble .38 Mk IV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Webley Mk.IV - .38 S&W]]

[[Image:Webley-MK-4.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Webley Mk.IV WW2 British Army version chambered for .38 S&W]]

[[Image:Webleyshort.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Webley MkIv pocket model]]

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

Jags: /* Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver */

[[Image:TOD.jpg|300px|thumb|right|''[[Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom]]'' (1984)]]

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

[[File:IDTOD 18.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Thuggee guard in the mine cart uses the revolver during the chase.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

[[Image:IDTOD 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Indy's revolver drops out the window, the cylinder pin clip is visible, identifying it as a Smith & Wesson Revolver and not a Colt.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

[[Image:TODgang.jpg|thumb|550px|none|Closeup of Smith & Wesson Model 10 and Colt Official Police.]]

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley Mk. III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley Mk. III .455.

[[File:Webley 38 Mk III.jpg|thumb|none|400px|Webley .38 Mk. III - .38 S&W]]

[[Image:IJTD-TableGunA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|Chen holds the Webley Mk. III under a napkin at the table after shooting Wu Han. Note that this is a reversed shot (he's holding the revolver in his left hand and the logo on his scarf is on the wrong side).]]
[[Image:IJTD-TopBreak2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chen pulls his Webley Mk. III but is 'skewered' by Indy. Here the gun is in his right hand.]]

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928 Thompson==
Lao Che's son Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]] in the opening sequence. Note that the gun used by Kao Kan has a compensator, the one that is fired out of the car doesn't.

[[Image:IJTD-M1928NoCuttsA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Thompson lacking the compensator fired during the Shanghai chase.]]

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1]] was used by the Indian Army against the Temple of Doom guards at the Bridge scene. This is anachronistic as the film is set in 1935 yet the Lee Enfield No 4 was not issued until 1939 and not officially adopted until 1941. Instead they should be armed with the older SMLE No 1 MkIII.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]

[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1HoldFireA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers holding their rifles]]

One noteworthy scene is of an Royal Indian Army soldier having difficulty with his No 4. Mk 1 rifle. In the sequence the soldiers are cycling the bolts and firing as rapidly as they can. Being blanks there is no recoil, so the soldiers are almost 'short stroking' the cycling of the action. This soldier extracts a spent cartridge by pulling back on his bolt handle, but he does it only about 3/4th of the way before the empty brass breaks loose from the extractor claw, so he tries to load a fresh round out of the magazine '''before''' he has successfully extracted the expended brass. He struggles with two cartridges (one unspent, one spent) both jammed into the chamber, whereas after a few seconds, he pulls back hard on the bolt and both cartridges fly out, thus clearing the weapon. Thus the so called 'jam' seen on screen is purely '''operator error'''.
[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1JamA.jpg|thumb|none|601px|Soldier on the left suffers a failure to extract, causing two cartridges to get stuck in the chamber.]]

==Mauser Gewehr 1898==
A [[Mauser Gewehr 1898]] rifle was seen slung over the shoulder of a Chinese soldier at the Shanghai airport.

==Martini Henry==
The [[Martini-Henry Rifle Series|Martini Henry]] was used by the Temple of Doom Thuggees during the fight in the Mine and during the Mine Cart chase.

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight common to that model. This revolver was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the standard grips replaced by older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch [[Webley Mk. III]] .38 Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley MK III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley MK III .455.

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

'''The following firearms were used in the film ''Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom'':'''

__TOC__ 

=Handguns=
==Colt Official Police==
Indiana Jones ([[Harrison Ford]]) is seen using [[Colt Official Police]] Revolver during the chase on the streets of Shanghai. He then loses the revolver when Willie Scott (Kate Capshaw) handles the hot barrel and drops it out of the getaway car. Indy's revolver appears to have a 4" barrel and was chambered in .38 special. It had been thought that the Temple of Doom gun was the Colt New Service [[M1917 Revolver]] or possibly one of the cut down S&W's from ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'', but new information and research has led to the discovery that it is a 4 inch [[Colt Official Police]] .38. Other Colts are seen used by one of Lao Che's gangsters and a Thuggee guard.

==Smith & Wesson Model 10==

Although it was a [[Colt Official Police]] that was filmed in the car, it was most likely a 5 inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] M&P revolver that is filmed dropping out of the car window during the opening chase. Originally thought to be a rubber Colt [[M1917 Revolver]], new documentation and photographic evidence shows it to have been a Smith & Wesson Revolver.

[[Image:IDTOD 07.jpg|thumb|none|600px|As Indy's revolver drops out the window, the cylinder pin clip is visible, identifying it as a Smith & Wesson Revolver and not a Colt.]]

==Smith & Wesson Model 10 (Snub)==
A 2" [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] snub nose can be seen being used by the gangster standing on the right side running board in the photograph below. EMI Elstree in the UK had rented a Colt Official Police .38 w/ 4" barrel (marked for use by Chinese gangster on left hand running board of black pursuit car), and a Smith and Wesson .38 (marked for use by Chinese gangster on right hand running board of black pursuit car).

[[Image:TODgang.jpg|thumb|550px|none|Closeup of Smith & Wesson Model 10 and Colt Official Police.]]

==Smith & Wesson M&P (Three Inch Barrel)==
What appears to be a three inch [[Smith & Wesson Model 10]] Military & Police with the lanyard ring removed is used by Indy's partner Wu Han ([[David Yip]]). The hole for the lanyard ring can easily be seen when the revolver drops to the table. The 3 inch barrel on this gun looks to be from a model 10-5 as it has the long front ramp sight. This gun was probably a police issue model 10-5 from the 1960's. The screen-used gun also had the older smooth finish grips as found on the [[Smith & Wesson Victory Model]].

==Webley Mk III .38 Pocket Revolver==

A nickel plated 3 inch Webley .38 Mk III Commercial Contract is used by Chen ([[Chua Kah Joo]]) during the cork-popping scene in Club Obi Wan. The Webley MK III in .38 caliber was also known as a "Pocket Revolver" as it is much smaller that the Webley MK III .455.

[[Image:IJTD-TopBreak2a.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Chen pulls his Webley MK III but is 'skewered' by Indy. Here the gun is in his right hand.]]

==Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless==

Kao Kan's ([[Ric Young]]) revolver is a [[Smith & Wesson 32 Safety Hammerless]] with a 3 1/2 inch barrel in .32 S&W caliber. It is also known as the S&W New Departure or a S&W "Lemon Squeezer". It is similar to the [[Smith & Wesson 4th Model]] but is hammerless and has a grip safety. Although it looks similar to the [[Webley Mk. III]], you can see that the front sight is different. Another shot shows the screen used gun with white Mother of Pearl grips and not black hard rubber grips as was standard.

=Submachine Guns=
==M1928 Thompson==
Lao Che's son Kao Kan ([[Ric Young]]) opens fire on Indy in the Club Obi Wan nightclub with a [[Thompson|Thompson M1928]] in the opening sequence. Note that the gun used by Kao Kan has a compensator, the one that is fired out of the car doesn't.

[[Image:IJTD-M1928NoCuttsA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Thompson lacking the compensator fired during the Shanghai chase.]]

=Rifles=
==Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1==
The [[Short Magazine Lee-Enfield (SMLE)|Lee-Enfield No 4. Mk 1]] was used by the Indian Army against the Temple of Doom guards at the Bridge scene. This is anachronistic as the film is set in 1935 yet the Lee Enfield No 4 was not issued until 1939 and not officially adopted until 1941. Instead they should be armed with the older SMLE No 1 MkIII.
[[Image:LeeEnfield4Rifle.jpg|thumb|none|450px|Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British]]

[[Image:IJTD-No4Mk1HoldFireA.jpg‎|thumb|none|600px|The Indian Army soldiers holding their rifles]]

One noteworthy scene is of an Royal Indian Army soldier having difficulty with his No 4. Mk 1 rifle. In the sequence the soldiers are cycling the bolts and firing as rapidly as they can. Being blanks there is no recoil, so the soldiers are almost 'short stroking' the cycling of the action. This soldier extracts a spent cartridge by pulling back on his bolt handle, but he does it only about 3/4th of the way before the empty brass breaks loose from the extractor claw, so he tries to load a fresh round out of the magazine '''before''' he has successfully extracted the expended brass. He struggles with two cartridges (one unspent, one spent) both jammed into the chamber, whereas after a few seconds, he pulls back hard on the bolt and both cartridges fly out, thus clearing the weapon. Thus the so called 'jam' seen on screen is purely '''operator error'''.

==Mauser Gewehr 1898==

Webley Revolvers

2012-04-20T21:12:37Z

Jags: /* Webley .38 MK III */

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
*[[Webley Mk V]] - Adopted in 1913, the '''Mk V''' was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
*[[Webley Mk VI]] - Adopted in 1915, the '''Mk VI''' featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year.

:These pages are kind of a mess, as I think there has been a misunderstanding about how these revolvers are named. Initially the revolvers were made in .455 with the final variant being the Mk VI in 1915. Then comes the confusing part, the .38 revolver known as the Mk IV (WWII service pistol) is not directly related to the .455 Mk IV being made about 40 years later. The .38 revolvers are actually based on a scaled down Mk VI .455. I don't know if the .38 revolvers started from Mk I, but there was definitely a Mk III which was introduced in, I think, 1925 and was used by the police. I'm not really that clued in on the differences between all the variants so can't know for sure, but will go out on a limb and guess that a lot of these guns are on the wrong pages, as I'm fairly sure that for some variants there are no external differances. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks?

Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority).

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip. Soldiers were stating that the round butt was harder to hold when their hands were covered in mud, blood, grease and when wearing gloves. Internally several of the components were redesigned to ease manufacturing.

Hope this helps. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 17:15, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Thanks, that helps with some, but what obvious external difference (dumb it down for me) are there between a Mk III, and the the Mk IV and V (how is the rear of the cylinder rounded, it looks the same to me). I'm fairly sure the pictures currently up for the III and V are correct (can read the markings at the top of the frame) but to me they look identical (apart from the hammer seemingly going back to the Mk 1 style). --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:40, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Look at the Mk II and the Mk III. See how the Mk II doesn't have the additional mechanical do-hickeys on the left side just to the front of the cylinder and the Mk III does. As do all the latter marks. There you go. Also the bolt slots in the Mk IV cylinder are noticeably larger when compared to the Mk III. the rounding of the cylinder is more subtle, but it's there. The page looks good. I wouldn't get too wound up over the small stuff. Good work.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 18:02, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley Confusion ==

I think the major confusion about the Webleys is that they made .455 chambered models and .38 chambered models. Both models are named MK I, II, III, etc. but the guns are totally different. The .38 series are smaller than the .455 series and are often called "pocket revolvers". The 2 photos above of a MK II and a MK III are the .38 chambered models and that's why they don't look "right" as most people are used to seeing the .455 models of the same "MK" designation. The last photo above with the 3 revolvers shows a .455 chambered model on top and two .38 chambered models below. You can see the considerable difference in frame size between the two different series.

What should be done is a section for the .455 models and a section for the .38 models. That would alleviate a lot of the confusion.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year. It was a very nice revolver, but had more recoil than my friend's 1911, but that's because of weight differences in certain parts of the guns. - [[User:Kilgore|Kilgore]] 14:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Webley Revolvers

2012-04-20T21:02:39Z

Jags: /* Webley .38 Mk IV */

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

Jags: /* Webley .38 MK III */

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
*[[Webley Mk V]] - Adopted in 1913, the '''Mk V''' was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
*[[Webley Mk VI]] - Adopted in 1915, the '''Mk VI''' featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year. It was a very nice revolver, but had more recoil than my friend's 1911, but that's because of weight differences in certain parts of the guns. - [[User:Kilgore|Kilgore]] 14:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Is there a reason that all the Webley Mk ##s have their own page? Seems like they should be on the same page with different sections like the [[Desert Eagle]]. Thoughts? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 17:34, 18 April 2012 (CDT)
:These pages are kind of a mess, as I think there has been a misunderstanding about how these revolvers are named. Initially the revolvers were made in .455 with the final variant being the Mk VI in 1915. Then comes the confusing part, the .38 revolver known as the Mk IV (WWII service pistol) is not directly related to the .455 Mk IV being made about 40 years later. The .38 revolvers are actually based on a scaled down Mk VI .455. I don't know if the .38 revolvers started from Mk I, but there was definitely a Mk III which was introduced in, I think, 1925 and was used by the police. I'm not really that clued in on the differences between all the variants so can't know for sure, but will go out on a limb and guess that a lot of these guns are on the wrong pages, as I'm fairly sure that for some variants there are no external differances. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)

[[Image:Arm273.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Webley Mk.IV - .455 Webley]]

The Webley Mk IV was made from 1899 - 1913. It differs from the Mk III in that the steel was of differnet quality, the trigger stop was raised and the slots in the cylinder were made wider. The ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:10, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

What do you think about naming the sections "Webley .455 Mk ##" and "Webley .38 Mk IV". This isn't technically how they were known, but is the only sollution to the problem that we currently have of there being two totally different variants sharing the same name and section. There would also possibly be the "Webley .38 Mk III" which did exist and could be in stuff, if I knew enough about these guns to tell them apart. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:17, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I think you read my mind. That seems to be the only logical way to organize them. I don't have any heartburn with it. Page looks good by the way. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:26, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks? My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority). Is this rightish? Any other external differences between the variants? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:55, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip. Soldiers were stating that the round butt was harder to hold when their hands were covered in mud, blood, grease and when wearing gloves. Internally several of the components were redesigned to ease manufacturing.

Hope this helps. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 17:15, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Thanks, that helps with some, but what obvious external difference (dumb it down for me) are there between a Mk III, and the the Mk IV and V (how is the rear of the cylinder rounded, it looks the same to me). I'm fairly sure the pictures currently up for the III and V are correct (can read the markings at the top of the frame) but to me they look identical (apart from the hammer seemingly going back to the Mk 1 style). --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:40, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Look at the Mk II and the Mk III. See how the Mk II doesn't have the additional mechanical do-hickeys on the left side just to the front of the cylinder and the Mk III does. As do all the latter marks. There you go. Also the bolt slots in the Mk IV cylinder are noticeably larger when compared to the Mk III. the rounding of the cylinder is more subtle, but it's there. The page looks good. I wouldn't get too wound up over the small stuff. Good work.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 18:02, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Thanks, think I have it pretty much worked out now. Lastly, do you know what the two unidentified variants at the top of this page are? .38 Mk III's? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 18:27, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I don't have a clue. Need to research it, but my first inclination is that they are Belgian replicas. In the 19th and early 20th century Belgium was a major source of knock-offs as was Spain. But that's just a guess right now.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 20:04, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

''Indian 32-caliber IOR-Mk1 revolver Made by the INDIAN ORDNANCE FACTORY of Kampur, the Mk-1 revolver is a reminiscence of the British colonial period. It is manufactured with modified Webley designs, it is double-action and retains the Webley-typical automatic spent cases ejection at the break-open of the cylinder. It was first launcher on the export market in the years 1995/1996, but it has been in production since more than 25 years back, and gained acceptance as an Indian Police service weapon and for civilian ownership (private ownership of guns in India is more common than many may believe). It was conceived as a concealable gun, and this, and the 32-caliber, made it popular in its homeland back in the years when the .32-ACP ammunition was at the top with civilians for self-defence and with police personnel for concealed carry. Now that the market is clogged with a number of compact and sub-compact high-capacity and high-caliber semi-automatic models, the IOR-Mk1 revolver can be considered as a collection item for the curious gun owner. One note about the manufacturer of this weapon, the Indian State-owned ORDNANCE FACTORY BOARD is that they have enlarged their production lines in the past years and now manufacture about everything that such a country needs for law enforcement and national defence. Their products range from "Oldies But Goldies" items like this IOR-Mk1 revolver, the ASHANI semi-automatic pistol (copy of the Browning 1910), the 9x19mm Browning High-Power, the L1A1-FAL rifle and the Sterling machine-carbine.''

== Webley Confusion ==

I think the major confusion about the Webleys is that they made .455 chambered models and .38 chambered models. Both models are named MK I, II, III, etc. but the guns are totally different. The .38 series are smaller than the .455 series and are often called "pocket revolvers". The 2 photos above of a MK II and a MK III are the .38 chambered models and that's why they don't look "right" as most people are used to seeing the .455 models of the same "MK" designation. The last photo above with the 3 revolvers shows a .455 chambered model on top and two .38 chambered models below. You can see the considerable difference in frame size between the two different series.

What should be done is a section for the .455 models and a section for the .38 models. That would alleviate a lot of the confusion.

--[[User:Jags|Jags]] 01:57, 20 April 2012 (CDT)

Are you sure that a .38 Mk II existed, as I can't find any referance to them, only the Mk III and Mk IV. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 05:19, 20 April 2012 (CDT)

I'm not having any luck either. So keep looking, but I think that for now we're sitting pretty good where we are at. Excellent work guys. I'm a revolver nut so it warms my old man heart to see the classics receive so much attention.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 11:24, 20 April 2012 (CDT)

Thanks for finishing up the .38 Webley III posting. (I'm still trying to figure out how to work this site!) I'm not sure about the .38 MK II's either but I thought I read something about them at sometime. The Webley .38 MK III was in production for 40 - 50 years.

Here is one from 1896: http://www.adamsguns.com/2824.htm

Here is a Webley price list from 1939 just posted today.

This is the actual one used in Temple of Doom: http://www.propbay.com/original/chens-webley-indiana-jones-temple-doom-1984-movie-prop-435.html

Here is what is said on Wikipedia: The Hong Kong Police and Royal Singaporean Police were issued Webley Mk III & Mk IV .38/200 revolvers from the 1930s. Singaporean police Webleys were equipped with safety catches, a rather unusual feature in a revolver. These were gradually retired in the 1970s as they came in for repair, and were replaced with Smith & Wesson Model 10 .38 revolvers. The London Metropolitan Police were also known to use Webley revolvers, as were most colonial police units until just after the Second World War. There may still be some police units with Webley Mk IV revolvers that, whilst not issued, are still present in the armoury.

Just google "Webley MK III" and you'll get all kinds of things on the .38, .455, flare gun, and the air rifle. I do know that the specs for the .38 are available in some gun books but I haven't found anything specific on the internet either.

The .38 series are smaller than the .455 series and are often called "pocket revolvers". The 2 photos above of a MK II and a MK III are the .38 chambered models and that's why they don't look "right" as most people are used to seeing the .455 models of the same "MK" designation. The last photo above with the 3 revolvers shows a .455 chambered model on top and two .38 chambered models below. You can see the considerable difference in frame size between the two different series.

What should be done is a section for the .455 models and a section for the .38 models. That would alleviate a lot of the confusion.

Are you sure that a .38 Mk II existed, as I can't find any referance to them, only the Mk III and Mk IV. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 05:19, 20 April 2012 (CDT)

I'm not having any luck either. So keep looking, but I think that for now we're sitting pretty good where we are at. Excellent work guys. I'm a revolver nut so it warms my old man heart to see the classics receive so much attention.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 11:24, 20 April 2012 (CDT)

Thanks for finishing up the .38 Webley III posting. (I'm still trying to figure out how to work this site!) I'm not sure about the .38 MK II's either but I thought I read something about them at sometime. The Webley .38 MK III was in production for 40 - 50 years.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year. It was a very nice revolver, but had more recoil than my friend's 1911, but that's because of weight differences in certain parts of the guns. - [[User:Kilgore|Kilgore]] 14:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

== Merging ==

Is there a reason that all the Webley Mk ##s have their own page? Seems like they should be on the same page with different sections like the [[Desert Eagle]]. Thoughts? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 17:34, 18 April 2012 (CDT)
:These pages are kind of a mess, as I think there has been a misunderstanding about how these revolvers are named. Initially the revolvers were made in .455 with the final variant being the Mk VI in 1915. Then comes the confusing part, the .38 revolver known as the Mk IV (WWII service pistol) is not directly related to the .455 Mk IV being made about 40 years later. The .38 revolvers are actually based on a scaled down Mk VI .455. I don't know if the .38 revolvers started from Mk I, but there was definitely a Mk III which was introduced in, I think, 1925 and was used by the police. I'm not really that clued in on the differences between all the variants so can't know for sure, but will go out on a limb and guess that a lot of these guns are on the wrong pages, as I'm fairly sure that for some variants there are no external differances. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)

[[Image:Arm273.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Webley Mk.IV - .455 Webley]]

The Webley Mk IV was made from 1899 - 1913. It differs from the Mk III in that the steel was of differnet quality, the trigger stop was raised and the slots in the cylinder were made wider. The ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:10, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

What do you think about naming the sections "Webley .455 Mk ##" and "Webley .38 Mk IV". This isn't technically how they were known, but is the only sollution to the problem that we currently have of there being two totally different variants sharing the same name and section. There would also possibly be the "Webley .38 Mk III" which did exist and could be in stuff, if I knew enough about these guns to tell them apart. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:17, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I think you read my mind. That seems to be the only logical way to organize them. I don't have any heartburn with it. Page looks good by the way. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:26, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Go to town my friends. I just wanted to get all this stuff on the same page. You guys should sort them however you think is best. :-) --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 16:42, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks? My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority). Is this rightish? Any other external differences between the variants? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:55, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip. Soldiers were stating that the round butt was harder to hold when their hands were covered in mud, blood, grease and when wearing gloves. Internally several of the components were redesigned to ease manufacturing.

Hope this helps. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 17:15, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Thanks, that helps with some, but what obvious external difference (dumb it down for me) are there between a Mk III, and the the Mk IV and V (how is the rear of the cylinder rounded, it looks the same to me). I'm fairly sure the pictures currently up for the III and V are correct (can read the markings at the top of the frame) but to me they look identical (apart from the hammer seemingly going back to the Mk 1 style). --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:40, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Look at the Mk II and the Mk III. See how the Mk II doesn't have the additional mechanical do-hickeys on the left side just to the front of the cylinder and the Mk III does. As do all the latter marks. There you go. Also the bolt slots in the Mk IV cylinder are noticeably larger when compared to the Mk III. the rounding of the cylinder is more subtle, but it's there. The page looks good. I wouldn't get too wound up over the small stuff. Good work.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 18:02, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Thanks, think I have it pretty much worked out now. Lastly, do you know what the two unidentified variants at the top of this page are? .38 Mk III's? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 18:27, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I don't have a clue. Need to research it, but my first inclination is that they are Belgian replicas. In the 19th and early 20th century Belgium was a major source of knock-offs as was Spain. But that's just a guess right now.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 20:04, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Yet another variation ==
Evidently they are still making the Enfield No. 2 in India. Believe it or not! --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 21:28, 19 April 2012 (CDT)
[[File:IndianEnfield.jpg|none|300px|thumb|Indian Enfield]]
''Indian 32-caliber IOR-Mk1 revolver Made by the INDIAN ORDNANCE FACTORY of Kampur, the Mk-1 revolver is a reminiscence of the British colonial period. It is manufactured with modified Webley designs, it is double-action and retains the Webley-typical automatic spent cases ejection at the break-open of the cylinder. It was first launcher on the export market in the years 1995/1996, but it has been in production since more than 25 years back, and gained acceptance as an Indian Police service weapon and for civilian ownership (private ownership of guns in India is more common than many may believe). It was conceived as a concealable gun, and this, and the 32-caliber, made it popular in its homeland back in the years when the .32-ACP ammunition was at the top with civilians for self-defence and with police personnel for concealed carry. Now that the market is clogged with a number of compact and sub-compact high-capacity and high-caliber semi-automatic models, the IOR-Mk1 revolver can be considered as a collection item for the curious gun owner. One note about the manufacturer of this weapon, the Indian State-owned ORDNANCE FACTORY BOARD is that they have enlarged their production lines in the past years and now manufacture about everything that such a country needs for law enforcement and national defence. Their products range from "Oldies But Goldies" items like this IOR-Mk1 revolver, the ASHANI semi-automatic pistol (copy of the Browning 1910), the 9x19mm Browning High-Power, the L1A1-FAL rifle and the Sterling machine-carbine.''

Webley Revolvers

2012-04-20T20:41:47Z

Jags: /* Webley .38 MK III */

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
*[[Webley Mk V]] - Adopted in 1913, the '''Mk V''' was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
*[[Webley Mk VI]] - Adopted in 1915, the '''Mk VI''' featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year. It was a very nice revolver, but had more recoil than my friend's 1911, but that's because of weight differences in certain parts of the guns. - [[User:Kilgore|Kilgore]] 14:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

== Merging ==

Is there a reason that all the Webley Mk ##s have their own page? Seems like they should be on the same page with different sections like the [[Desert Eagle]]. Thoughts? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 17:34, 18 April 2012 (CDT)
:These pages are kind of a mess, as I think there has been a misunderstanding about how these revolvers are named. Initially the revolvers were made in .455 with the final variant being the Mk VI in 1915. Then comes the confusing part, the .38 revolver known as the Mk IV (WWII service pistol) is not directly related to the .455 Mk IV being made about 40 years later. The .38 revolvers are actually based on a scaled down Mk VI .455. I don't know if the .38 revolvers started from Mk I, but there was definitely a Mk III which was introduced in, I think, 1925 and was used by the police. I'm not really that clued in on the differences between all the variants so can't know for sure, but will go out on a limb and guess that a lot of these guns are on the wrong pages, as I'm fairly sure that for some variants there are no external differances. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)

[[Image:Arm273.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Webley Mk.IV - .455 Webley]]

The Webley Mk IV was made from 1899 - 1913. It differs from the Mk III in that the steel was of differnet quality, the trigger stop was raised and the slots in the cylinder were made wider. The ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:10, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

What do you think about naming the sections "Webley .455 Mk ##" and "Webley .38 Mk IV". This isn't technically how they were known, but is the only sollution to the problem that we currently have of there being two totally different variants sharing the same name and section. There would also possibly be the "Webley .38 Mk III" which did exist and could be in stuff, if I knew enough about these guns to tell them apart. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:17, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I think you read my mind. That seems to be the only logical way to organize them. I don't have any heartburn with it. Page looks good by the way. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:26, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

:Go to town my friends. I just wanted to get all this stuff on the same page. You guys should sort them however you think is best. :-) --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 16:42, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks? My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority). Is this rightish? Any other external differences between the variants? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:55, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip.

Look at the Mk II and the Mk III. See how the Mk II doesn't have the additional mechanical do-hickeys on the left side just to the front of the cylinder and the Mk III does. As do all the latter marks. There you go. Also the bolt slots in the Mk IV cylinder are noticeably larger when compared to the Mk III. the rounding of the cylinder is more subtle, but it's there. The page looks good. I wouldn't get too wound up over the small stuff. Good work.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 18:02, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

''Indian 32-caliber IOR-Mk1 revolver Made by the INDIAN ORDNANCE FACTORY of Kampur, the Mk-1 revolver is a reminiscence of the British colonial period. It is manufactured with modified Webley designs, it is double-action and retains the Webley-typical automatic spent cases ejection at the break-open of the cylinder. It was first launcher on the export market in the years 1995/1996, but it has been in production since more than 25 years back, and gained acceptance as an Indian Police service weapon and for civilian ownership (private ownership of guns in India is more common than many may believe). It was conceived as a concealable gun, and this, and the 32-caliber, made it popular in its homeland back in the years when the .32-ACP ammunition was at the top with civilians for self-defence and with police personnel for concealed carry. Now that the market is clogged with a number of compact and sub-compact high-capacity and high-caliber semi-automatic models, the IOR-Mk1 revolver can be considered as a collection item for the curious gun owner. One note about the manufacturer of this weapon, the Indian State-owned ORDNANCE FACTORY BOARD is that they have enlarged their production lines in the past years and now manufacture about everything that such a country needs for law enforcement and national defence. Their products range from "Oldies But Goldies" items like this IOR-Mk1 revolver, the ASHANI semi-automatic pistol (copy of the Browning 1910), the 9x19mm Browning High-Power, the L1A1-FAL rifle and the Sterling machine-carbine.''

== Webley Confusion ==

I think the major confusion about the Webleys is that they made .455 chambered models and .38 chambered models. Both models are named MK I, II, III, etc. but the guns are totally different. The .38 series are smaller than the .455 series and are often called "pocket revolvers". The 2 photos above of a MK II and a MK III are the .38 chambered models and that's why they don't look "right" as most people are used to seeing the .455 models of the same "MK" designation. The last photo above with the 3 revolvers shows a .455 chambered model on top and two .38 chambered models below. You can see the considerable difference in frame size between the two different series.

What should be done is a section for the .455 models and a section for the .38 models. That would alleviate a lot of the confusion.

Here is what is said on Wikipedia: The Hong Kong Police and Royal Singaporean Police were issued Webley Mk III & Mk IV .38/200 revolvers from the 1930s. Singaporean police Webleys were equipped with safety catches, a rather unusual feature in a revolver. These were gradually retired in the 1970s as they came in for repair, and were replaced with Smith & Wesson Model 10 .38 revolvers. The London Metropolitan Police were also known to use Webley revolvers, as were most colonial police units until just after the Second World War.

:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power.

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks? My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority). Is this rightish? Any other external differences between the variants? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:55, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip. Soldiers were stating that the round butt was harder to hold when their hands were covered in mud, blood, grease and when wearing gloves. Internally several of the components were redesigned to ease manufacturing.

My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority). Is this rightish? Any other external differences between the variants? --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:55, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley revolvers. Different Marks. ==
Mark I (November 1887)Black powder, bird's head grip,lanyard ring,4 inch barrel, break-top or open top design.

Mark I*(October 1894)Upon repair or refurbishing a hardened steel plate was added to the standing breech in order to approximate the design of the Mark II. The butt was rounded off a little more and the thumb piece on the stirrup-lock was made smaller.

Mark II (October 1894)Hardened steel plate added to the standing breech to help with corrosion, hammer was made of harder steel, grip was rounder, hammer catch spring was coiled instead of V-shaped and thumb piece on the stirrup lock was made smaller.

Mark III (October 1897) A cam was fitted to unlock the cylinder for removal and the cylinder attachment to the frame was improved. See the left side of the revolver. In 1905 a number of Mk III's were fitted with 6" barrels for officers and cadets to purchase.

Mark IV (July 1899)Higher grade steel, trigger stop was raised, the slots in the cylinder made wider, ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter to ease with the lock time. Like the Mk III there were a number of this pattern made with the 6" barrel for officers and cadets who wished to purchase them.

Mark V (December 1913)the cylinder had a larger diameter (to withstand the higher pressures from the smokeless powder rounds)and the rear of the cylinder was rounded.

Mark VI (May 1915) The ultimate Webley pattern. Six inch barrel is now standard. Front blade sight is removable. Square butt for better grip. Soldiers were stating that the round butt was harder to hold when their hands were covered in mud, blood, grease and when wearing gloves. Internally several of the components were redesigned to ease manufacturing.

:Thanks, that helps with some, but what obvious external difference (dumb it down for me) are there between a Mk III, and the the Mk IV and V (how is the rear of the cylinder rounded, it looks the same to me). I'm fairly sure the pictures currently up for the III and V are correct (can read the markings at the top of the frame) but to me they look identical (apart from the hammer seemingly going back to the Mk 1 style). --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:40, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Look at the Mk II and the Mk III. See how the Mk II doesn't have the additional mechanical do-hickeys on the left side just to the front of the cylinder and the Mk III does. As do all the latter marks. There you go. Also the bolt slots in the Mk IV cylinder are noticeably larger when compared to the Mk III. the rounding of the cylinder is more subtle, but it's there. The page looks good. I wouldn't get too wound up over the small stuff. Good work.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 18:02, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

I don't have a clue. Need to research it, but my first inclination is that they are Belgian replicas. In the 19th and early 20th century Belgium was a major source of knock-offs as was Spain. But that's just a guess right now.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 20:04, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

== Webley Confusion ==

I think the major confusion about the Webleys is that they made .455 chambered models and .38 chambered models. Both models are named MK I, II, III, etc. but the guns are totally different. The .38 series are smaller than the .455 series and are often called "pocket revolvers". The 2 photos above of a MK II and a MK III are the .38 chambered models and that's why they don't look "right" as most people are used to seeing the .455 models of the same "MK" designation. The last photo above with the 3 revolvers shows a .455 chambered model on top and two .38 chambered models below. You can see the considerable difference in frame size between the two different series.

What should be done is a section for the .455 models and a section for the .38 models. That would alleviate a lot of the confusion.

==Power==
I have read from a few sources that claim the .455 Webley cartridge has limited stopping power. They say that a common feature of most European revolvers is they have powder charges too small for their large bullets (i.e the Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873's 11x17mm cartridge). Any thought's on this gun's effectiveness?
::I remember hearing how when they tested the stopping power of pistol rounds on cows, the .455 bullet killed a cow in one shot and a .45 ACP did it in two, so that sounds to me like it's got all the power it should. But it depends what manufacturer is making the ammo and how much they're packing the shells with. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]
:Well, you're referring to the Thompson-Lagarde tests, which resulted in the development of the .45 ACP. The science involved is kind of questionable, however the old .476 Enfield round actually came out first in testing, followed by the .45 Colt and .455 Webley. The tests were very biased towards large-caliber unjacketed bullets. Bear in mind that the .455 was mostly used with the jacketed Mk.VI round throughout it's service life. It's true that the .455 is a somewhat low-velocity round, like most European rounds of the late 19th century (though only the .45 Colt and .44-40 of the same era were notably faster, .455 Webley and .44 Russian are fairly close in performance). Ballistically the .45 ACP produces more ft-lbs, but in actual use nobody ever complained about the .455s stopping power. The 11 x 17mm French is a different story, as the French army insisted on loading it to far lower pressures than the gun could handle. - [[User:Nyles|Nyles]]

I've never owned the .455 version, but I got a Webley Mk. VI converted to .45 ACP for my birthday last year. It was a very nice revolver, but had more recoil than my friend's 1911, but that's because of weight differences in certain parts of the guns. - [[User:Kilgore|Kilgore]] 14:50, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

== Merging ==

Is there a reason that all the Webley Mk ##s have their own page? Seems like they should be on the same page with different sections like the [[Desert Eagle]]. Thoughts? --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] 17:34, 18 April 2012 (CDT)
:These pages are kind of a mess, as I think there has been a misunderstanding about how these revolvers are named. Initially the revolvers were made in .455 with the final variant being the Mk VI in 1915. Then comes the confusing part, the .38 revolver known as the Mk IV (WWII service pistol) is not directly related to the .455 Mk IV being made about 40 years later. The .38 revolvers are actually based on a scaled down Mk VI .455. I don't know if the .38 revolvers started from Mk I, but there was definitely a Mk III which was introduced in, I think, 1925 and was used by the police. I'm not really that clued in on the differences between all the variants so can't know for sure, but will go out on a limb and guess that a lot of these guns are on the wrong pages, as I'm fairly sure that for some variants there are no external differances. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 17:55, 18 April 2012 (CDT)

[[Image:Arm273.jpg|thumb|none|300px|Webley Mk.IV - .455 Webley]]

The Webley Mk IV was made from 1899 - 1913. It differs from the Mk III in that the steel was of differnet quality, the trigger stop was raised and the slots in the cylinder were made wider. The ratchet teeth of the extractor were case-hardened and the hammer was made lighter.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:10, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

What do you think about naming the sections "Webley .455 Mk ##" and "Webley .38 Mk IV". This isn't technically how they were known, but is the only sollution to the problem that we currently have of there being two totally different variants sharing the same name and section. There would also possibly be the "Webley .38 Mk III" which did exist and could be in stuff, if I knew enough about these guns to tell them apart. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] 16:17, 19 April 2012 (CDT)

Is anyone an expert on the .455 Webley revolver marks? My knowledge is somewhere between fuck and all, but first off I though that all of the Mk's had the holster guides (wedges in front of the cylinder) but the pictures for the Mk II and III lack these so I think that would make them a random civilian Webley (not even sure if these had standardised names and designs). Also, in terms of identifying the different Marks would it be correct to say that the Mark 1 has the squared off rear of the grip, the Mark II rounds this off, the Mark III adds external cylinder cams between the pivot and the holster guides, not sure about the IV and V, and the VI has the squared off grip and 6" barrel (rest had 4" with 5/6" being the minority).

{{WIP}}
=History=
*[[Webley Mk I]] - Adopted in 1887, the Original Webley '''Mk I''' was chambered for a blackpowder cartridge and had a "bird head" shaped grip.
*[[Webley Mk II]] - Adopted in 1894 and almost identical to the Mk I, the '''Mk II''' had a hardened removable steel blade that was added at the back of the frame breech. Also, the hammer was strengthened and the grip was slightly rounded.
*[[Webley Mk III]] - In 1897, the '''Mk III''' improved the cylinder to frame lock. It also allowed the cylinder to be removed for cleaning.
*[[Webley Mk IV]] - The original '''Mk IV''' was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots. In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.
*[[Webley Mk V]] - Adopted in 1913, the '''Mk V''' was designed to accept smokeless (cordite) ammunition. It had a larger and stronger cylinder, as well as a redesigned frame.
*[[Webley Mk VI]] - Adopted in 1915, the '''Mk VI''' featured redesigned, more squared grips, a 6 inch (152 mm) barrel and removable front sights. Mark VI revolvers were manufactured by Webley & Scott until 1921, later these were manufactured by Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock. Officially rendered obsolete in 1932 with the adoption of the Enfield No.2 .38 caliber revolvers, but widely used by British troops during the World War Two.

[[Image:Webleyshort.jpg|thumb|right|400px|Webley MkIv pocket model]]

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.

[[Image:ShortWebley MkIV.jpg|thumb|right|400px|short barreled Duty Model]]

The original Mk IV was adopted in 1899. It improved on the Mark III by being made from different steel, with a smaller and lighter hammer and wider cylinder slots.

In 1942 the Mk IV was officially adopted for military service. It started as a scaled-down version of the .455 Mark VI revolver, but was chambered for .38 S&W cartridge. It should be noted the the .38 Mk IV and the .455 Mk IV are in fact different guns.

The Webley Mk IV was introduced by Webley in 1923 as a potential police revolver. The British government at the same time had decided to go to a smaller caliber revolver and liked the 38 caliber load that the Webley Mk IV fired, but in the post war years financial austerity was the watchword. The British government did not want to pay Webley for it's design. In 1926-1927 the Royal Small Arms Factory at Enfield Lock made changes to the lockwork and trigger mechanism, largely in the provision of a hammer safety lock and a separate cylinder lock. With these modifications the revolver was designated the [[Enfield No.2]]. It's full title was Pistol, Revolver, Number 2 Mark 1. Ironically in World War II with demand outstripping the ability to produce the Enfield No.2 the British government purchased a large number of the Webley Mk IV for issue. So while the two models look alike they are very different.
