Maxim M1910-30 Machine Gun
Sokolov's update of the MG08 Maxim machine gun for the Russian 7.62x54R Cartridge. This machine gun was widely used by Russian/Soviet forces in World Wars One and Two and heavily used by their satellite client states.
The rusted decaying remnants of a Browning ANM2 heavy machine gun are excavated by archeologists and South Korean Soldiers in the present day battle site.

Fake Soviet KPV Heavy Machine Gun
A Mockup of an Anti Aircraft gun, that resembles a cross between the 14.5mm KPV and the 12.7mm NVS Heavy Machine guns is made out of a Browning M2HB. M2 Machine guns are commonly use to mock up foreign heavy machine guns like in Rambo III and The Beast of War.

North Korean Soldiers use the Soviet DP Light Machine gun, also known as the DP-27. They differ from the more common DPM with the lack of a pistol grip, differently shaped stock and a bipod that mounts below, not above, the heat jacket of the barrel.

The close support aircraft in the film. We see dozens of F4Us in close ground support roles, using their 20mm cannons to strafe North Korean lines and entrenched soldiers. A mortally damaged F4U also makes it's own 'kamikaze' run at a North Korean gun emplacement.
Since there is so much hand to hand combat in the film, the filmmakers made lightweight dummy Garands and Mosin Nagant Carbines out of wood and metal parts. In closeup they are obvious (also the fact that the actors swing them around like they weigh nothing is also a clue). The Russian carbines are odd looking and looks like a hybrid 91/30 and an M34/44.
When Jin-tae Lee (Dong-Kun Jang) gives his brother Jin-seok Lee (Bin Won) a Hershey's chocolate bar to cheer him up, the candy bar is the "King-sized version" that Hershey introduced in 1980. Also we see the 'nutritional content listings' that were required in the 1990s. Also I didn't know they had bar code readers in 1950.....
