Handguns
1934 Mauser Pocket Pistol
German officers Muesel (Walter Gotell) and Sessler (George Mikell) use M1934 Mausers as their sidearms. After overpowering them, Mallory (Gregory Peck) and Miller (David Niven) appropriate their Mausers.

Supressed Mauser M1934 Pistol
Pappadimos' (James Darren) sidearm is a M1934 Mauser which he always uses with a silencer attached. In the end gunbattle, he gives the pistol to his sister, Maria (Irene Papas) so she can be armed in the end gunbattle but it is confiscated by Mallory after Maria shoots Anna. As is especially noticeable when Mallory shoots the guard who asks for coffee, it does not cycle or eject when fired.
Luger P08 Artillery
When the group is captured, SS-Hauptsturmführer Sessler (George Mikell), incorrectly named "Hauptmann" (A Wehrmacht rank, not a SS rank), by Muesel, uses a Luger P08 to torture Franklin by hitting his injured leg with it.
Enfield No.2
The commandos bring Enfield No.2 revolvers as their sidearms. Roy Franklin (Anthony Quayle) uses one to try and commit suicide, (in order not to be a burden for the team so they can complete the mission), but is stopped at the last second by Miller (David Niven). In the beginning of the film, when Mallory recruits Andrea (Anthony Quinn), he pulls out an Enfield from his shoulder holster but then puts it back when he recognizes Mallory.
Astra 400
Spyro draws what appears to be a Astra 400 seconds before he and the group is captured by the Germans but is hindered by Miller at the last second.
Submachine Guns
Sten Mk I
Corporal Miller (David Niven) and others are seen with and using a Sten Mk I in several scenes.

Sten (mockup)
Several of the commandos are seen firing what first appears to be a Sten Mk II submachine gun (modified with a shortened barrel). In reality it is actually a mockup Sten that only shoots flames. Andrea Stavros (Anthony Quinn) uses this "Sten" to kill several German soldiers in the final firefights. Spyros Pappadimos (James Darren) also uses this flame-shooting Sten and kills several Germans and then confronts their officer who also has a mockup Sten gun. (How the officer got one is unknown). The mockup Sten gun is fitted with a small flame device to represent the guns flash (in slow motion you can see that the actors aren't actually pressing the guns trigger in time with the shots). The gun is also poorly constructed: The stock is mounted in such a way the thumb does not go all the way around it due to the presence of two (gas)hoses connected to the rear of the gun itself.
