The following weapons can be seen in the film To Kill a Mockingbird:
Rifles
Krag-Jorgensen Sporter
Sheriff Heck Tate (Frank Overton) brings a "Sporterized" Krag-Jørgensen to the site of the rabid dog, Tim Johnson. He gives it to Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck), telling him to take the shot. Atticus does so, killing the dog and revealing his accuracy with firearms, a fact that he tried to hide from his children, Jean Louise "Scout" Finch (Mary Badham) and Jeremy Atticus "Jem" Finch (Phillip Alford). It appears from the configuration of the loading gate and the barrel that the Krag-Jørgensen used in the movie is a sporterized Danish Krag-Jørgensen Model 1889 Rifle. It is an easy task for a gunsmith to turn down a bolt handle. Though that could be an illusion from the camera angle.There is also a possibility that the carbine is a modified U.S. M1898 carbine or rifle.
Winchester Model 1892
One of the members of Walter Cunningham Sr.'s (Crahan Denton's) lynch mob that confronts Atticus at the Maycomb County Jail the night before Tom Robinson's (Brock Peters) trial carries a Winchester Model 1892 lever action rifle.
Shotgun
Single Shot Shotgun
One of the members of the lynch mob appears to be carrying an unknown gauge Single Shot Shotgun.
Double Barreled Shotgun
Another one of the vigilantes is seen carrying the ubiquitous 12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun.
