== Colt M1911 == | |||
In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell ([[Brendan Fraser]]) and Jonathan 'Jon' Carnahan ([[John Hannah]]), among other weapons, uses a Colt [[M1911]]s to battle the attacking Tuaregs. Rick also uses a [[M1911]] later in the film, most notably preparing it on the boat to Hamunaptra. Also one of the American treasure hunters, Mr. Burns ([[Tuc Watkins]]), is seen using a Colt M1911. It should be noted that the screen gun used is a period authentic pre-1924 M1911, not an M1911A1 (noted by the lack of a curved mainspring housing and no relief cuts around the trigger guard on the frame. Also, the grip safety spur is shorter than on the A1 while the actual trigger itself is longer). This is a rare case of Hollywood getting something right. | In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell ([[Brendan Fraser]]) and Jonathan 'Jon' Carnahan ([[John Hannah]]), among other weapons, uses a Colt [[M1911]]s to battle the attacking Tuaregs.

Revision as of 18:39, 10 June 2013
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The following weapons were used in the film The Mummy:
Pistols
Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873
Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser) uses a pair of Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 revolvers throughout the film. During the fight in Hamunaptra, Jonathan (John Hannah) grabs them out of Rick's shoulder holsters and fires them at Imhotep's mummified priests.
Rick often dual-wields them and has an unique way of loading them by spinning the cylinders. Maybe if the ejector rod has been pulled back and the loading gate is open, all he has to do is to point the loading gate downwards,using the force of gravity and cylinder spinning to make sure all cartridges are ejected.
Colt M1917
Beni Gabor (Kevin J. O'Connor) uses a Colt New Service, while Mr. Daniels (Corey Johnson) carries and uses two of the revolvers. The Prison Warden (Omid Djalili) pulls out a Colt revolver during the brief standoff with the Americans in Hamunaptra.
Colt M1911
In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) and Jonathan 'Jon' Carnahan (John Hannah), among other weapons, uses a Colt M1911s to battle the attacking Tuaregs. Rick also uses a M1911 later in the film, most notably preparing it on the boat to Hamunaptra. Also one of the American treasure hunters, Mr. Burns (Tuc Watkins), is seen using a Colt M1911. It should be noted that the screen gun used is a period authentic pre-1924 M1911, not an M1911A1 (noted by the lack of a curved mainspring housing and no relief cuts around the trigger guard on the frame. Also, the grip safety spur is shorter than on the A1 while the actual trigger itself is longer). This is a rare case of Hollywood getting something right.
Colt Single Action Army
Mr. Henderson (Stephen Dunham) uses a Colt Single Action Army. Mr. Daniels is briefly seen with one when they enter the museum after Burns' death.
Mauser C96
Many of the Medjai who attack the boat to Hamunaptra are armed with dual Mauser C96s.
Remington Model 95 Double Derringer
Jonathan (John Hannah) uses a Remington 1866 Derringer.
Webley Mk.V
Burns (Tuc Watkins) uses a Webley Mk V revolver.
Rifles
Lebel M1886
In the beginning of the film, Rick O'Connell (Brendon Fraser), Beni Gabor (Kevin J. O'Connor) and the other members of The French Foreign Legion use French Lebel Rifles. There was a problem with these rifles in the movie, normally they hold eight rounds but the ones used in this movie fired a single round then had to be reloaded after each shot (Fraser does this several times during the course of the opening scene). Though all Lebels are eight-shot rifles, the loading process is so slow that it is often easier to fire one round at a time.
Another possible explanation is that it was not uncommon for rifles of the period to have a magazine cut-off. The Lebel is so equipped (as is the Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III, Springfield M1903, and Krag-Jorgenson rifles and carbines). Furthermore, the soldiers of the time were typically trained to chamber individual rounds during the bulk of the fighting, utilizing this magazine cutoff, and maintaining the magazine as a reserve of ammunition. This would have been exceptionally useful on a Lebel, as was pointed out before, it is not an easy rifle to load under pressure. The Lebel actually uses a tube magazine, like that of a Remington-Keene.
Lee-Enfield No.1 MkIII*
The Lee-Enfield rifle was extensively used in the film in the hands of British soldiers, the Arabs attacking the French Foreign Legion in the beginning of the film, and in the hands of the Medjai.
Mauser Karabiner 98k
The Tuaregs attacking The French Foreign Legion in the beginning of the film are seen using a variety of different manufactured Mauser rifles from different countries. Visible are some M1903 Turkish Mauser and some (anachronistic) M1938 and M38/46 Short Rifles. Some of the Berber Horsemen are seen holding Mauser Karabiner 98 (98K) rifles, which is clearly anachronistic, since the 98Ks were not developed until 1935, but it might be the older WWI version.
Shotguns
Winchester Model 1897
Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) uses a Winchester Model 1897 shotgun throughout the film. Evie is also seen using the shotgun. The shotgun is later given to Ardeth Bay (Oded Fehr) to hold off the Mummy's priests.
Machine Guns
Lewis
Rick O'Connell (Brendan Fraser) uses a Lewis gun mounted on an airplane to shoot at the face of the sandstorm that Imhotep (Arnold Vosloo) creates. When the airplane crashes, Ardeth Bey (Oded Fehr) unmounts the gun, and uses it against Imhotep's mummified priests in Hamunaptra.
O'Connell's Arsenal
On the boat, Rick displays his pack that's filled with weapons. The pack consists of:
- One Colt M1911A1 pistol.
- Two Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 revolvers.
- One Winchester Model 1897 shotgun in disassembled condition.
- One knife.
- One balisong.
- Two bandolier's with shotgun ammo.
- Dynamite sticks.
