Vickers MG

Though this MG really looks like a Vickers or Maxim, it has the barrel positioned in center of cooling jacket while Vickers' and Maxims' barrels are positioned on the bottom part of the jacket. The belt also looks strange: it isn't loaded in the machine gun but simply put on its top. Greg-Z (talk) 03:01, 20 November 2013 (EST)

Upon closer inspection (Thanks to the production image below) The Vickers gun in the film is a mock-up, using (possibly) an MP28 as the base. This also explains why the belt is show on top of the gun, as it's used to hide the magazine from view of the camera.

Note the vent holes at the front of the barrel shroud, bolt and ejection port on the side of the barrel jacket, further evidence this is a mock-up from a submachine gun, likely an MP28.
