(I'm against the idea of using the word "soldier" to describe the troops in this film. "Trooper" was also the lowest SS rank, so it would be appropriate.) |

Revision as of 16:36, 26 August 2010
The following guns were used in the movie Schindler's List
Karabiner 98k
German troops can be seen with Karabiner 98ks during the cleaning of the ghetto and during the Jews' internment in the Płaszów concentration camp.
Walther P38
A Walther P38 is only seen in one scene, when Göth has to dig up and then burn the bodies from the liquidation of the Krakow ghetto. One of his men feigns madness and fires into the mass of burning corpses.
Mauser rifle with straight bolt handle
Some of the Germans are seen with Mauser rifles with straight bolt handles instead of K98K, which have bent bolt handles.
MP40
Some of the Nazis executing Jews in the apartment building are using MP40 submachine guns.
MG34
An MG34 is seen mounted on a motorcycle sidecar.
Luger P08
The Luger P08 appears to be the sidearm of choice in this film. All executions by pistol are done with Lugers. The Lugers used had to be flashpaper guns, and were likely retained in later scenes for continuity reasons.
Steyr Mannlicher-Schoenauer Sporter
Amon Göth (Ralph Fiennes) uses a Steyr Mannlicher-Schoenauer fitted with a scope to kill Jews in the labor camp.
CZ 27
During the scene where Göth tries to execute Rabbi Lewartow for not making enough hinges, his Luger keeps misfiring. Göth takes out a CZ 27, which will not fire either. He has to settle for pistol whipping the rabbi with the CZ 27.
Unknown revolver
In a quick editing mistake, when Göth and his lieutenants walk away after failing to execute Lewartow, they pick up a revolver from the ground, supposedly discarded by Göth when it wouldn't fire. The pistol is not seen in the scene prior to being picked up.
Mosin Nagant M91/30
Two German soldiers can be seen with Mosin Nagant M91/30s in the camp while rounding up Jews.
