M1917 Enfield
Used by the American troops. It is evident from the bolt handle which projects back and then down rather than out and down that it is a M1917 rather than a M1903.
M1911
Used by the American officers. The hammer spur is small enough to indicate that they got the weapons right for the period by using a 1911 rather than a 1911A1.
K98 Mauser
Used by the German troops. The bolt handle does not turn down, indicating the chronologically-correct K98 rather than the later K98K.
M1917 revolver
Used by American officers.
