Submachine Guns
M1928A1 Thompson
Breitner's weapon of choice is a M1928A1 Thompson with a 50-round drum magazine. Other members of the commando team carry the gun as well when the situation calls for it.
M1 Thompson
In a continuity error, when Breitner retrieves his equipment from a case in his house, the Thompson within is an M1 model.

French Army soldiers and fellaghas use the MAT-49.
MP40
Several fellaghas are armed with MP40s.
PPSh-41
A few fellaghas carry PPSh-41s with 35 rounds magazines.
Rifles
MAS-36
French soldiers and fellaghas are seen carrying the MAS-36, but it is never fired.
Karabiner 98k
Martillat's main rifle is a scoped Karabiner 98k. He uses it with a suppressor as well. The suppressor used by Martillat seems to be the same one he screws onto his M1911- an impossible feat considering the two different calibers of these weapons. Senghor shoots a would-be rapist with Martillat's rifle. Several fellaghas are also armed with regular Kar98ks.

A few fellaghas are seen with 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotguns.
