Revision as of 16:39, 2 April 2015

It looks like the regular troops are using M1903 Springfields, and it looks like the Australian sniper is using a Carcano mocked up as an SMLE. --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:56, 31 March 2015 (EDT)

First, the rifle, called "Mocked as Mosin Nagant M1891", is a Carcano M91/38 Short Rifle that is mocked up as a Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I (heavily anachronistic for 1915-16). Second, the large revolver of a Turkish officer resembles an antique Webley Boxer .577, but Boxer had fluted cylinder while the screen revolver has a smooth cylinder so this guess it hardly true. Maybe it's a Webley percussion revolver that predated Boxer (I couldn't find the correct name but it can be seen here, the bottom one while the top one is a Boxer).

Thx, Greg! And Mushin' hand grenade?--Pandolfini (talk) 01:21, 2 April 2015 (EDT)
Sorry, I cannot identify the grenade. BTW, the "mockup of Mosin Nagant" looks too long for Carcano Short Rifle. Sorry, when I made this guess, I haven't seen this screenshot yet. Greg-Z (talk) 05:43, 2 April 2015 (EDT) So it is really Mosin-Nagant? And cannon you know?--Pandolfini (talk) 09:32, 2 April 2015 (EDT)

In reality, no sniper scopes for Mosin Nagant rifles existed during WW1. Snipers of Russian Imperial Army used rifles with standard iron sights. As for the screen rifle, I have one more guess: maybe it's a heavily disguised Turkish Mauser M88/35? The magazine looks similar to the screen one. Of course, the screen gun must have a different bolt handle, taken from another model. Greg-Z (talk) 12:39, 2 April 2015 (EDT)
