The following firearms were used in the 1954 Korean War drama The Bridges at Toko-Ri:
M1 Carbine
While Lt. Harry Brubaker (William Holden) is trapped behind enemy lines, Mike Forney (Mickey Rooney) & Nestor Gamidge (Earl Holliman) go to rescue him, armed with Korean war standard M1 Carbine Rifles. After Gamidge is killed, Forney gives the rifle to Brubaker, who remarks that being a jet pilot & not a soldier, he wouldn't know how to use it. A WWII Walnut Stock variant is seen held by soldiers on the aircraft carrier.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
After crashing his plane in enemy territory, Brubaker takes a Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver to defend himself against enemies before Forney & Gimadge arrive.
Degtyaryov DP-27
Two Korean Soldiers fire at Brubaker & Forey with a Soviet made Degtyaryov DP-27 drum-fed machine gun.
Unidentified Rifles
Korean soldiers are seen armed with unidentified rifles in the finale.
Unidentified revolver
In addition to the unidentified rifles, one of the Korean soldiers is armed with an unidentified nickel revolver, possibly a Webley variant.
