Shock Troops (Un homme de trop ("One man too many" or "The Extra Man")) is a 1967 French-Italian war drama directed by Costa-Gavras. In Summer 1943 in the Southern France a group of Maquisards (Resistance fighters) attack the prison where Nazi hold the arrested Resistance leaders. Suddenly it appears that there is the extra man (Michel Piccoli) among the liberated people. Is he a German spy, intentionally put in prison cell, or just a victim of circumstances? The commander of the Resistance group Cazal (Bruno Cremer) doesn't want to sentence the innocent to death, but his second-in-command Jean (Jean-Claude Brialy) is sure that the man is the agent and demands the execution.
The following weapons were used in the film Shock Troops (Un homme de trop):
Handguns
Mle 1892 Revolver
Some Maquisards, notably Jean (Jean-Claude Brialy) and Kerk (Jacques Perrin), carry Mle 1892 Revolvers.

Cazal's (Bruno Cremer) personal handgun is the M1911A1 pistol. In one scene he gives it to Thomas (Gérard Blain).
Luger P08
In the final scene several German officers carry Luger P08 pistols. A Luger is also seen in hands of Felix (Serge Sauvion).
Beretta M1934
What appears to be the Beretta M1934 is briefly seen when Groubec (Claude Brasseur) disarms the French gendarme.
Unidentified pistol
An unidentified pistol is hold by a French gendarme when Maquisards attack the police precinct in Pradelles.

MAS-49
Kerk's (Jacques Perrin) main weapon is the anachronistic MAS-49 semi-auto rifle. Sometimes he uses the rifle with APX L806 sniper scope. This is probably standing for the early MAS-40, which is really fell into the hands of the Resistance, but this happened only in 1944 (although it can be assumed that Kerk got his rifle earlier from some leaks, again if the above assumption is true). Note: two years earlier Jacques Perrin used MAS-49 with L806 scope in The 317th Platoon.
Karabiner 98k
Karabiner 98k rifles are used by both Maquisards and German troops.
Mauser Gewehr 1898
A full-length Mauser rifle is briefly seen held by one German soldier that appears to be a Gewehr 98.
