Hogan's Heroes is a comedy television series produced by Bing Crosby Productions about a band of multinational POW´s imprisoned in the German Prisoner Of War camp Stalag 13 during World War II. After creating a vast underground tunnel network directly beneath the prison complex, the group around Colonel Robert E. Hogan (Bob Crane) begins to disrupt the German war machinery through cunning sabotage operations. The series ran from 1965 to 1971 across 6 Seasons with a total number of 168 episodes.
The following weapons were used in the television series Hogan's Heroes:
Major Bonacelli (Hans Conried) uses a Beretta M1934 in "The Pizza Parlor", Season 1. The handgun made a reappearance in the Season 4 episode "How to Catch a Papa Bear".
Used by the "Milk Maid" in Season 2´s "Diamonds in the Rough". It can also be seen in "The Rise and Fall of Sergeant Schultz" in the hands of Cpl. Louis LeBeau (Robert Clary). A German doctor is also using one to examine Newkirks reflexes in "The Swing Shift".
Wielded by part of the German forces. These appear to be a mix of replica MP40 and what might be plastic props. The latter can be recognized by the filled-in space between the magazine well and the receiver.
In "Praise the Fuhrer and Pass the Ammunition", Season 2, SS officers training close to Stalag 13 are using fake Stielhandgranaten. The prop people apparently did not do much research on how the actual Model 24 works, so the cord with which the grenade is primed is not kept within the handle, but is attached to the head of the grenade (the "Pot").
