SAS Rogue Heroes is a 2022 BBC drama action series, loosely based on the docu-drama book of the same name by Ben MacIntyre. The show centres on the creation of the Special Air Service by David Stirling (Connor Swindells), Lt. Jock Lewes (Alfie Allen), and Paddy Mayne (Jack O'Connell) during the North Africa campaign of the Second World War in 1941-2.
The following weapons were used in the television series SAS Rogue Heroes:
Error creating thumbnail: File missing WARNING! THIS PAGE CONTAINS SPOILERS!
Pistols
Beretta M1934
Paddy Mayne (Jack O'Connell) has a Beretta M1934 (presumably pilfered from some unfortunate Italian soldier) as a backup sidearm.
Walther P38
A Walther P38 is seen with a German soldier in one scene. David Stirling (Connor Swindells) and his men also use them when posing as Nazi soldiers to infiltrate Benghazi.
Revolvers
Colt New Service
Lt. Paddy Mayne (Jack O'Connell) has one of these revolvers, likely the .455 Webley variant manufactured for British troops during the First World War, although he refers to it as a "Colt .45". Capitaine Georges Bergé (Virgile Bramley) also has one, which Augustin Jordan (César Domboy) takes from his holster for a confrontation with Mayne in episode 5.
Webley .455 Mk VI
David Stirling (Connor Swindells), Jock Lewes (Alfie Allen), Johnny Cooper (Jacob McCarthy), and Lt. Col. Dudley Wrangel Clarke (Dominic West) have Webley .455 Mk VI revolvers as their sidearms.
Submachine guns
MP40
During the covert operation in Benghazi, Stirling and his men (dressed in Nazi uniform) have MP40s. The SAS men are also joined by Randolf Churchill (Ian Davies), son of UK prime minister Winston Churchill, who carries Stirling's MP40 during the ride into Benghazi.
MP38
One SAS soldier uses an MP38 appropriated from Axis forces. This episode was set in 1941, compared to episode 5 being set in 1942, so it appears the producers were showing how the weapons evolved through the campaign. Having said that, MP40s (as the name suggests) were already in the hands of soldiers by 1941.
Thompson M1928A1
Various SAS members, including Lewes, Stirling, Mayne, Sgt. Reg Seekings (Theo Barklam-Briggs), and Cpl. Mike Sadler (Tom Glynn-Carney), are seen with Thompson M1928A1 submachine guns.
Rifles
Carcano M91/38
One Italian soldier is seen with a Carcano M91/38 Short Rifle. Other Italian soldiers have the standard-length Carcano M91/38.
Karabiner 98k
German soldiers are equipped with Karabiner 98k rifles.
Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk III*
The Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk III*, known as the "SMLE" (Short Magazine Lee-Enfield) by the British, is ubiquitous among Allied troops throughout the series. It is also used by Jock Lewes at the start of the first episode.
Scoped Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk III*
In episode 5, Paddy Mayne uses an SMLE with a scope to shoot at the French paratroopers during a training exercise.
Machine guns
Breda Modello 37
When Lt. Lewes' men raid an Italian artillery encampment at the beginning of the first episode, sergeant Almonds appropriates their Breda Modello 37 against them.
Bren gun
Bren guns are used by British soldiers (including Mike Sadler) during the series.
Browning M2 Aircraft
In the final episode, Browning M2 Aircraft heavy machine guns are given to the SAS to mount on their Jeeps. These fire incendiary ammunition, so as to destroy Nazi aircraft.
Lewis gun
Along with the Bren guns, British forces also use the Lewis gun. This includes 2nd Lt. Bill Fraser (Stuart Campbell) in one scene.
MG34
As Lewes' men raid the Mersa Brega supply depot, an Italian soldier fires an MG34 mounted to an Sd. Kfz. 251 half-track armoured fighting vehicle. Stirling, Sadler, and Cooper are also fired upon by a Nazi with an MG34 in the final episode.
MG FF
A Messerschmitt BF-109E aircraft fires upon Lewes' unit with its pair of wing-mounted MG FF cannons.
Vickers K
In episode 5, which is set later on in 1942, SAS Jeeps are fitted with Vickers K machine guns. These came into the hands of ground units during 1942 after being taken out of RAF aircraft in favour of Browning M1919s. Stirling mentions that they will receive Vickers machine guns in episode 6, even though they have had them since episode 5. However, they do receive additional Vickers K machine guns in double mounts this time.
Thrown
Fake grenade
Lt. Stirling clears a snooker room of its audience by frightening them off with a fake grenade that appears to have been adapted from a Mills Bomb, the standard-issue grenade of British forces during World War II.
Medium guns
105 mm M68
Stirling, Cooper, and Sadler are confronted by a Nazi tank at the end of the series. Rather than finding an actual German WWII tank however, the production company managed to borrow an M48A5 Patton tank from the Moroccan military and dress it up in Nazi livery. The main gun of this tank is a 105-mm M68. Needless to say, this is not historically accurate, as the M48 wasn't introduced until the 1950s.
Field gun
In the Italian encampment in the first episode, there is a field gun. It appears to be a prop made to (somewhat) resemble the German 10.5 cm leichte FeldHaubitze 18/40.

Trivia
Painting of Jock Lewes with a Bren gun
Although Jock Lewes doesn't use a Bren gun in this series, a portrait of the real-life Lewes with a Bren gun was painted in 1940 by artist Rex Whistler (1905-1944).
