MP40
The MP40s have strange platings (wooden?) that cover their sides so the receivers resemble Star Z45 while the barrels are MP40s. Really, look very unusual.

Mauser rifle

- The revolver apparently (this is just an assumption), judging by the "sharp" front sight and the clearly fake ejector, is some kind of Smith & Wesson Model 10 derivative, dressed up to look like the Colt SAA. Similar guns can be seen in many European productions of the 70s - 80s (although in earlier Hollywood Westerns, they were also used). --Slon95 (talk) 16:18, 1 November 2019 (EDT)
