The following guns were used in the film The Mummy
Colt 1911
In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser), among other weapons, uses two Colt 1911s to battle a group of Med Jai. Rick also uses a 1911 later in the film, most notably preparing it on the boat to Hamunaptra.
Winchester 1897
Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser) uses a Winchester Model 1897 shotgun throughout the film.
Mauser C96
Many of the Medjai who attack the boat to Hamunaptra are armed with dual Mauser C96s.
Chamelot-Delvigne Revolver
Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser) uses a pair of Chamelot-Delvigne revolvers throughout the film.
French Lebel Rifle ??
In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser) and the other members of The French Foreign Legion use French Lebel Rifles.
- [edit] I'm pretty sure they are not Lebel rifles. Lebel 1886 rifles had a ten shot tube magazine and O'Connell and his men are all firing single shot and reloading. I believe they are Gras M1874/80 French service rifles chambered for the 11mm cartridge. Or perhaps the previous 1866/74 version.
Colt New Service
Mr. Daniels (Cory Johnson) carries and uses two Colt New Service revolvers.
Colt Single Action Army
Mr. Henderson (Stephen Dunham) uses a Colt Single Action Army.
Mauser Rifle
The Arabs attacking The French Foreign Legion in the beginning of the film are seen using a variety of different manufactured Mauser rifles from different countries. Visible are some M1903 Turkish Mauser and some (anachronistic) M1938 and M38/46 Short Rifles. Some of the Arab Horsemen are seen holding Mauser Karabiner 98 (98K) rifles, which is clearly anachronistic, since the 98Ks were not developed until 1935.
Lewis Machine Gun
Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) uses a Lewis Gun mounted on an airplane to shoot at the face of the sandstorm that Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) creates. When the airplane crashes, Ardeth Bey (Oded Fehr) unmounts the gun, and uses it against Imhotep's mummified priests in Hamunaptra.
Lee-Enfield SMLE
The Lee-Enfield rifle was extensively used in the film in the hands of British troops, the Arabs attacking the French Foreign Legion in the beginning of the film, and in the hands of the Medjai.
