French Lebel Rifle

In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser) and the other members of The French Foreign Legion use French Lebel Rifles. There was a problem with these rifles in the movie, normally they hold eight rounds but the ones used in this movie fired a single round then had to be reloaded after each shot. Brendon Fraser does this several times during the course of the opening scene. Though all Lebels are eight shot rifles the loading process is so slow that it is often eaiser to fire one round at a time.

Another possible explanation is that it was not uncommon for rifles of the period to have a magazine cut-off. The Lebel is so, equipped (as is the Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III, Springfield M1903, and Krag-Jorgenson rifles and carbines). Furthermore, the soldiers of the time were typically trained to chamber individual rounds during the bulk of the fighting, utilizing this magazine cutoff, and maintaining the magazine as a reserve of ammunition. This would have been exceptionally useful on a Lebel, as was pointed out before, it is not an easy rifle to load under pressure.

Mauser Rifle

The Arabs attacking The French Foreign Legion in the beginning of the film are seen using a variety of different manufactured Mauser rifles from different countries. Visible are some M1903 Turkish Mauser and some (anachronistic) M1938 and M38/46 Short Rifles. Some of the Arab Horsemen are seen holding Mauser Karabiner 98 (98K) rifles, which is clearly anachronistic, since the 98Ks were not developed until 1935, but it might be the older WWI version.
