Nice, but where's the trigger? This article or section is incomplete. You can help IMFDB by expanding it. |
The following firearms can be seen in the film The Battle of the Bulge:
M1 Garand
The most common weapon among US infantrymen during WWII. The M1 Garand is seen several times throughout the film.
M1 Carbine
The M1 Carbine is seen briefly held by a German soldier dressed up and disguised as a US soldier.
M3 Grease Gun
The M3 Grease Gun is the most common submachine gun carried by US infantrymen during WWII and is seen used by Sgt. Duquesne and Lt. Weaver.
M1919A4/A6 Browning .30 Caliber Machine Gun
M1919 A4 is seen mounted on the US tanks and is fired handheld by Sgt. Guffy (Telly Savalas).
Thompson M1A1
The Thompson is seen very little.
M20 Bazooka
Wolenski (Charles Bronson) uses an M20 Bazooka with shield to damage a German Tiger Tank. If these are indeed M20 Super Bazookas then they are anachronistic. The M20s were not issued until the Korean War (1950).
Colt M1911A1
Seen in the holster of US officers and used by Lt. Weaver (James MacArthur).
Mauser K98K
The most common weapon seen by German soldiers.
MP40
Seen by German soldiers.
