The following weapons were used in the film Biggles: Adventures in Time:
Submachine Guns
Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II
Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II submachine guns (standing in for the original Bergmann MP18) are used by James 'Biggles' Bigglesworth (Neil Dickson), the German Officer, Debbie, and Jim Ferguson (Alex Hyde-White). Several German soldiers on the secret facility also carry them.
Heckler & Koch MP5A2
Early Heckler & Koch MP5A2 SMG's with straight magazines are used by the Met police PT17 Firearms Team as they try to find Biggles and Jim Ferguson.
Mini Uzi
A Mini Uzi is seen held by Jim Ferguson while he is dressed as a WWI soldier in a 1980's hotel room in London.
Sterling Mk. IV
A Sterling SMG is used by Jim Ferguson and later Biggles as they return to 1917 in a stolen Police helicopter. It is originally an Aircrew Weapon from the Metropolitan Police Bell 206.
The Sterling is seen on the right.
Rifles
Mauser Karabiner 98AZ
Mauser 98AZ Artillery Carbine rifles are used by the German soldiers. The Germans use mainly Mauser K98a rifles, which look like Polish WWII Mausers and were used by German "Stoßtruppen" (shock troops) during the trench warfare.
Mauser Gewehr 1898
Some German soldiers use also Mauser Gewehr 1898 with shorter barrels and turned bolt handles. Such similar configurations are also seen in other British productions like A Bridge Too Far and Dunkirk.
Parker-Hale M-85
The Police marksman in the helicopter uses the Parker-Hale M-85 rifle to take a shot at Jim Ferguson on the rooftop in 1986 London.
Lee-Enfield No. 1 Mk. III*
SMLE rifles are used by the British Army in 1917.
Handguns
Webley Mk. VI
Webley Mk VI revolvers are used by Biggles, Algie and Bertie
Luger P08
A Luger P08 is held by Biggles against Stahlhein's head.
Browning Hi-Power
A Browning Hi-Power is seen used by undercover police outside the Tower Hotel.
Mauser C96
A Mauser C96 is also used.
Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub
What appears to be a snub version of the Smith & Wesson Model 19 is seen used by undercover police outside the Tower Hotel.
Machine Guns
Vickers Mk. I
An abandoned Vickers machine gun is seen on the Western front in 1917.
Lewis Gun
A Lewis gun is used by Jim Ferguson back in 1917 on Biggles' two-seat photo-recon aircraft (actually a modified Belgian Stampe SV.4 rather than anything that would have flown with the Royal Flying Corps in 1917). A Lewis gun is also seen in the trenches on the Western Front. The aircraft-mounted weapon is in fact the ground service model with standard shoulder stock, rather than the 'spade grip' and barrel shroud.
Maxim MG08
Dual-mounted Maxim MG08 air-cooled machine guns are seen on Stahlhein's aircraft in 1917. These are actually modified infantry machine guns, to look like the aircraft version.
Other

A Webley & Scott No. 1 Mk. III* flare pistol is used by Biggles in 1986 London to shoot at the Police Marksman in the helicopter.

Model 24 Stielhandgranates are used by German troops, and also by Eric Von Stalhein who mutually tries to kill Biggles.
10.5-cm-leichte Feldhaubitze 18
The 10.5 cm leichte FeldHaubitze 18/40. During the weapons testing ground, various objects are around such as dummy soldiers and anachronistically WW2 German 105mm Howitzer. Shortly after the secret weapon is used, the objects crumble up.
