The following guns were used in The Dirty Dozen: The Fatal Mission
M1A1 Thompson
Major Wright (Telly Savalas) and several other American soldiers (the MP's at the prison in particular) wield M1A1 Thompsons.
M3 "Grease Gun
The majority of the American soldiers and Yugoslavian resistance members use M3 "Grease Guns".
M1911A1
Major Wright uses an M1911A1 pistol in one scene, as does an Army captain during Hamilton's attempted escape.
Walther P38
SS General Kurt Richter (Matthew Burton) uses a Walther P38 as his sidearm of choice.
Luger P08
Many Germans as well as some Yugoslavians throughout the film use the Luger P08.
MP40
The MP40 makes its triumphant return as the firearm of choice for nearly every German soldier seen in the film. The guards at the Bulgarian border use them as well.
Karabiner 98k
A handful of German soldiers use Karabiner 98k bolt-action rifles, although the MP40 is still the dominant German weapon in this film. The Dozen also utilize them for bayonet practice.
MG42
Two German soldiers at the Grecian border are seen with an MG42 mounted on a tripod.
Browning M1919
Joseph Hamilton (Ernie Hudson) commandeers a Browning M1919 machine gun in a guard tower while trying to escape from military prison. Several tracked "German" vehicles (actually Soviet Ural AT-L's) have these machine guns mounted on them.

Scout car gun
An American scout car seen at the prison is shown with an enormous gun mounted in back.
