Daybreak (original title Le jour se lève) is a 1939 French drama movie directed by Marcel Carné and starring Jean Gabin as a factory worker named François who commits a murder with a handgun, and then barricades himself in his apartment. As the stand-off with the police plays out, François recalls the events that led to his tragic downfall.
The following weapons were used in the film Daybreak:
Ruby Pistol
François (Jean Gabin) uses a pistol of Ruby family. The position of the safety and the shape of cocking serration allow to identify this particular pistol as Destroyer (manufacturer unknown, supposedly one of numerous small factories in Eibar, Spain).
Mle 1892 Revolver
The police responding to Valentin's murder carry the MAS Mle 1892 revolver.
Berthier Carbine
Soldiers of a French Army unit are armed with Berthier carbines. Some of these carbines can be identified as Berthier Mle 1892 Artillery Carbine, others may be of same or another model.
Gras Carbine
Some soldiers are armed with Gras carbines.
