Army of Shadows (L'armee des ombres) is a 1969 French film directed by Jean-Pierre Melville chronicling a group of French resistance fighters between October 1942 and February 1943.
The following firearms were used in the film Army of Shadows:
Colt M1911
Colt M1911 pistols are the main sidearms of most of the resistance fighters, including Philippe Gerbier (Lino Ventura), Félix Lepercq (Paul Crauchet), and ex-legionnaire Guillaume 'Le Bison' Vermersch (Christian Barbier). Since they are funded and supplied by the British in the film, with Philippe and Felix once even mentioning that the British were supposed to supply them with silencers, it can be assumed that the M1911 pistols were also British surplus.
Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless
Gerbier's team of Canadian, Belgian, and British commandos assisting with one of their missions carries small-caliber pistols resembling Colt Model 1903 Pocket Hammerless pistols.
SACM mle. 1935A
Jean-François Jardie (Jean-Pierre Cassel), an ex-pilot resistance fighter, carries a French SACM mle. 1935A pistol as his sidearm.
Walther PPK
An SS officer fires his Walther PPK at Gerbier inside the execution chamber.
MP40
Many Nazi German guards throughout the film carry MP40 submachine guns.
Karabiner 98k
Several German sentries and guards carry Karabiner 98k rifles.
MAS-36
The Vichy French officers in the film all carry MAS-36 rifles.
MG34
An MG34 is set up in the execution chamber of the German prison.
