MASH (1972-1983)


M*A*S*H (or simply spelled as MASH) was the television adaptation of the 1970 film of the same name. As in the film, the series followed the antics of the medical personnel assigned to the 4077th Mobile Army Surgical Hospital. Though set in the Korean War, the series was meant as an allegory to the then ongoing war in Vietnam. The series aired on CBS for 11 seasons from 1972-1983 and its finale was one of the most viewed television programs in history.

The following weapons were used in the series M*A*S*H:


Handguns

Star Model B

For the majority of the series, the Star Model B was used as a substitute for the M1911A1 that would be standard issue, since blank .45 ammo was more rare than 9mm at the time. It is used by many characters throughout the series, notably MAJ Frank Burns (Larry Linville) and (Harry Morgan) as both MG Bartford Hamilton Steele and as COL Sherman Potter. CPT Benjamin Franklin "Hawkeye" Pierce (Alan Alda) disdains guns, though he uses one in Episode 5.10 "Hawkeye, Get Your Gun" to scare Chinese forces.

Burns has a Star Model B with pearl handles. As the comic foil, he frequently breaks every rule of gun safety in spades, despite being "regular Army."

Colt Commander

The Colt Commander is seen used by characters throughout the series, probably as a substitute for the regular Colt M1911 as the Colt Commander was not a common pistol seen during the Korean War. In the Episode 1.16 "The Ringbanger" Henry uses his service pistol. In the Episode 2.13 "Deal Me Out" Captain Halloran (Edward Winter) draws his service pistol because of gunfire in the camp (Winter would later become better known in the series as COL Flagg). In the same episode, PVT Carter (John Ritter) threatens Frank in the shower.

Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket

In Episode 3.2 "Rainbow Bridge" Houlihan gives Burns a Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket with pearl grips for a concealed weapon before going to a wounded pickup in Chinese territory, in spite of the Chinese saying they were not even to have sidearms. Fortunately the Chinese are so amused by the diminutive size they laugh it off.

Colt New Service

In Episode 4.13 "The Gun," a wounded Colonel arrives at the 4077th with a revolver described as a chromed Colt .45, shiny barrel with bone grips, made in 1884. The year suggests that pistol is supposed to be a Colt Single Action Army, though the actual revolver is an anachronistic Colt New Service model, which wasn't introduced until 1898, 14 years later.

Several US Army and UN soldiers are seen with M1 Carbines. CPL Maxwell Klinger (Jamie Farr) is seen with an M1 Carbine during patrol in a couple instances. During some Seasons Klinger carries only the M1 Carbine while in other seasons he carries either the M1 Carbine or the M1 Garand.

Valmet M71

In Episodes 6.12-13 "Comrades in Arms," Korean patrols appear to be carrying Valmet M71 Sporter riles with synthetic furniture and the muzzle brake removed, to represent AK-47s. While this is a reference to the Vietnam War, any AK-47 variant used in the Korean War is likely an anachronism, since even the Soviet Union and China did not issue AK-type rifles until years after the Armistice was signed in 1953.

Shotguns

Double-Barreled Shotgun

MAJ Charles Emerson Winchester III (David Ogden Stiers) managed to get his shotgun sent from home for fowl hunting in Episode 8.12 "Dear Uncle Abdul." It's a hammerless break action side-by-side shotgun. As a nod to his character namesake (and affluence), it is possibly a Winchester Model 21 or 24 though the receiver is never clearly seen. MAJ Margaret Houlihan (Loretta Swit) borrows it during the episode.
