I'm guessing the tanks are German. I think I see a Leopard 1, a Bergepanzer 2 ARV, an M48, and an M109. --[[User:Funkychinaman|Funkychinaman]] ([[User talk:Funkychinaman|talk]]) 12:45, 13 January 2015 (EST) | I'm guessing the tanks are German.

:Many thanks! I identified only Leopard (with the help of IMCDB) but had no idea about three others.

I was thinking that the rifles referred to as Beretta SC-70/223 might actually be folding stock versions of the [[Beretta BM59]]. I am thinking so because the Beretta BM59 has a more pronounced end section on the folding stock, a round shaped back sight and a straight magazine. Also, the regular version with wooden stock of the BM59 already appears in the movie so it would make more sense to have another BM59 version rather than the SC-70/223.

Tanks
I'm guessing the tanks are German. I think I see a Leopard 1, a Bergepanzer 2 ARV, an M48, and an M109. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:45, 13 January 2015 (EST)

- If it's the Italian army, it might be an M60. The turret shape is wrong for an M47. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:24, 13 January 2015 (EST)
Beretta SC-70/223
I was thinking that the rifles referred to as Beretta SC-70/223 might actually be folding stock versions of the Beretta BM59. I am thinking so because the Beretta BM59 has a more pronounced end section on the folding stock, a round shaped back sight and a straight magazine. Also, the regular version with wooden stock of the BM59 already appears in the movie so it would make more sense to have another BM59 version rather than the SC-70/223.

- I was under the impression that the folding stock looks like SC-70 but now I'm not sure. The movie was filmed in 1976 when SC-70 was the most modern firearm of Italian army, so BM59 could be more available for filming. Greg-Z (talk) 08:02, 14 January 2015 (EST) Fixed. Thanks for help!
