Browning M2 or M1917?
The machine guns seen here look like the water cooled M2, but the ammo belt looks too small to be for .50 caliber rounds. Is this a Browning M1917? --Ben41 02:16, 29 May 2012 (CDT)
It's a Vickers gun dressed up as an M2. Evil Tim 03:06, 29 May 2012 (CDT)
Very strange Browning M1919
The gun currently listed as the M1919 is puzzling me a bit. First off it has spade grips, which were only fitted as standard on a few experimental guns and the AN/M2 which this isn't. I came across the below image which I think this gun may be related to:
This is a gun which was supposedly taken from a British aircraft and modified by the LRDG to be fired from a jeep (the tube and block on the back are a makeshift trigger to fire the normally hydraulically operated machine gun). Take note of the muzzle which seems to be a close match for the gun in question (with the exception of whatever that is protruding from the front of the movie gun, could be a BFA or maybe it has been cut off of the above gun). My other guess is it could be an M1918 (an M1917 with the water jacket removed made by Remington), but the muzzle is not quite right:
These look like mockups. --Ben41 12:53, 29 May 2012 (CDT)
Error creating thumbnail: File missingWhen Japanese troops invade the airstrip, some are seen with machine guns that resemble the Type 99, but since this film was made during the war, it's possible that these are mockups.
