'''''Triple Cross''''' is a 1966 World War II period spy film of a joint British-French production directed by [[Terence Young]], loosely based on the exploits of real-life criminal-turned-British double agent Eddie Chapman who infiltrates the Nazi-German intelligence services and aids the British armed forces in exchange for a free pardon for his past crimes. The film stars [[Christopher Plummer]], [[Romy Schneider]], [[Gert Fröbe]], and [[Yul Brynner]].

==Luger P08==
The [[Luger P08]] is the standard sidearm given to the Nazi officers throughout the film, and as such carried by Eddie Chapman ([[Christopher Plummer]]), Lieutenant Steinhager ([[Gert Fröbe]]), and SS-Hauptsturmführer Keller (Harry Meyen).

==Walther P38==
Colonel Baron von Grunen ([[Yul Brynner]]) keeps a [[Walther P38]] in his study, which he hands to Chapman so he would demonstrate his shooting skills.

==Mauser HSc==
An SS officer sent to accompany Keller on an attempt to entrap and arrest Chapman is seen training a [[Mauser HSc]] on their person of interest. This could probably be a substitute for a [[Walther PP]] or a [[Walther PPK|PPK]] since that was the sidearm SS hounds usually carried. As most of the film was shot in France, it is likely that they couldn't supply a PP/PPK and opted for a similar pistol instead.

==Karabiner 98k==
The Nazi-German firing squad use [[Karabiner 98k|Karabiner 98ks]] to fake an execution at a prison in Occupied France. Nazi soldiers elsewhere are also seen armed with the rifle throughout the film.

==MP40==
A scene depicting modifications for espionage purposes at the artillery depicts an [[MP40]] with a curved barrel developed by the Nazi-Germans called the "Krummlauf". There is no known fact that MP40 was capable of employing such barrels as the attachment was specifically designed for the [[Sturmgewehr 44]] assault rifle. But, as this film was made during the spy craze of the sixties, such larger-than-life gadgetry had to make its presence in most spy films. The weapon is carried by both Keller and Chapman during the demonstration.
