My Way (Korean title:마이 웨이]] is a 2011 South Korean war film directed by Kang Je-gyu. Two Rival marathoners, Korean rickshaw driver Kim Jun-Shik (Dong-gun Jang) and Japanese-born Tatsuo Hasegawa (Joe Odagiri), are put into front-line service with the Imperial Japanese Army, Jun-Shik a draftee and Tatsuo a fiercely Nationalist colonel. Captured by the Red Army during the Battle of Khalkhin Gol, they endure a harsh journey that takes them from a forced-labor camp in Russia to battle against the Wehrmacht and ultimately defending Omaha Beach from the Americans on D-Day.
The following weapons are seen in My Way:
Warning: Some Possible Spoilers Ahead!
Sidearms
Browning Hi-Power
A Wehrmacht officer uses a Browning Hi-Power during the Battle of Hedosk.
Nambu Type 14
Tatsuo Hasegawa (Joe Odagiri) and several other Japanese officers use the Nambu Type 14. Note that the large trigger guard makes this a "late" Nambu, which would be inaccurate for the Battle of Khalkhin Gol.
Tokarev TT-33
The Tokarev TT-33 is used by Red Army prison guards and Commissar's. Tatsuo Hasegawa (Joe Odagiri) uses a presumably captured TT-33 to execute retreating Japanese soldiers at Khalkhin Gol.
Walther P38
The Walther P38 is used by a Wehrmacht officer during D-Day.
Submachine Guns
M1928A1 Thompson
At least one of the American soldiers attacking Omaha Beach carries an M1928A1 Thompson.
M1A1 Thompson
Several American soldiers landing at Omaha Beach carry the M1A1 Thompson.
PPSh-41
Both Red Army and Wehrmacht officers use the PPSh-41 (not inaccurate, many Germans fighting on the Ostfront used the PPSh-41). However, the weapon does make an appearance amongst the Labor camp guards in scenes set pre-1941, which would make it anachronistic.
Rifles
Arisaka Type 38
The Arisaka Type 38 is the main weapon of the Imperial Japanese Army, including Kim Jun-Shik (Dong-gun Jang) and Lee Jong-dae (Kim In-kwon).
Karabiner 98k
The main weapon of the Wehrmacht soldiers is the Karabiner 98k. Oddly enough, several US soldiers also use the 98k - possibly because of an inadequate number of US rifles.
Karabiner 98k "Kriegsmodell"
At least one soldier can be seen with a Karabiner 98k "Kriegsmodell" rifle, a late war version of the Kar 98k intended to simplify production. Specifically this rifle is a "semi-Kriegsmodell" as it incorporates some simplification features (simpler screw retained barrel bands and no bayonet lug or cleaning rod) but not all (it still has the disk on the buttstock to aid in disassembly of the bolt).
