The following guns were used in the movie Sunshine (1999)
"Sunshine" is a historical drama written, produced and directed by Hungarian director István Szabó. It chronicles the upheaval in Hungary during the 20th century through the eyes of three generations of a Hungary Jewish family. Ralph Fiennes plays three roles in the film as Hungary goes from monarchy, to fascism, and communism and as the family struggles with their religious and cultural identity. Rosemary Harris co-stars, along with her daughter Jennifer Ehle, Rachel Weisz and Mark Strong.
