The Thirty Nine Steps is the 1978 adaptation of John Buchan's novel of the same name directed by Don Sharp starring Robert Powell, John Mills and David Warner. Most fans of the novel believe this film the most faithful of the four feature adaptations to the source material, but it still strays considerably. The film spawned a 1988 television spinoff, Hannay, with Robert Powell reprising his title role, which ran for two series.
The following weapons were used in the film The Thirty Nine Steps:
Handguns
Colt Model 1908
Scudder (John Mills) carries a Colt Model 1908, which Hannay (Robert Powell) secretly unloads.
Webley Bulldog
Marshall (Donald Pickering) carries a Webley Bulldog throughout the film. Inspector Lomas (Eric Porter) carries one at the end of the film.
Webley revolver
Bayliss (Ronald Pickup) is armed with a small Webley revolver for the entire film. There's not enough detail to pin down exactly which model, however.
Shotguns
Double Barreled Shotgun
Donald (Derek Anders), a gamekeeper, is seen with a Double Barreled Shotgun. Hannay encounters a party lead by David Hamilton (Miles Anderson) fowling armed with double barreled shotguns as well.
Rifles/Carbines
Double Rifle
Hannay answers the door while cleaning a double rifle. It is later revealed that he did quite a bit of hunting while living in South Africa.
Mannlicher-Schonauer rifle
Marshall uses a Mannlicher-Schonauer rifle for much of the film.
Mauser 98 Sporter
Bayliss uses a Mauser 98 Sporter for much of the film.
Martini-Henry Carbine
