Revision as of 23:48, 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)
- Probably just a full-lenghth Carcano. --Funkychinaman (talk) 10:27, 2 April 2015 (EDT)
- On second thought... if that's a fake Mosin-Nagant, and it probably is, they did a really good job with it. It certainly looks like a Mosin-Nagant stock. I'd put it as unknown for now. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:01, 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)
