The following firearms can be seen in Breaker Morant (1980):
WORK IN PROGRESS
Webley Mk VI Revolver
The Webley Mk VI Revolver is used by both the British and Australian officers.
Remington 1875 Revolver
Remington 1875 revolver is used by a Boer Commando during the raid on the British Camp.
Colt SAA
A Colt Single Action Armyis used by a Boer Commando during a night ambush of Australian soldiers.
Lee Enfield Mk.I Rifle
The Lee Enfield Mk. I Rifle is used by both the Australian and British soldiers throughout the movie. It is also shown being used by some of the Boer Commandoes. This is historically accurate. As the war dragged on the Boers were forced to use captured British weapons.
Mauser Rifle
Used by the Boer Commandoes throughout the movie. It appears that they are using the Spanish Mauser 1895 Rifle
Vickers Machine Gun
During the attack on the British fort Morant (Edward Woodward) and his men use a Vickers with great effectiveness against the Boer Commandoes. I believe that the Vickers is acting as a double for a Maxim Gun.
