The following guns were used in the film Windtalkers:
M1 Garand
M1 Garand rifles are the most commonly weapon in the hands of U.S. Marines. Most notably seen used by Private Pappas (Mark Ruffalo) and Private Nellie (Martin Henderson).
M1928 Thompson
Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicolas Cage) uses an M1928 Thompson fitted with a 50 round drum during the opening scene in the swamps of Guadalcanal.
M1928A1 Thompson
For the remainder of the film, Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicholas Cage) uses an M1928A1 Thompson fitted with a 30 round magazine (although the capacity is continually ignored, being a John Woo film). Sgt. Pete "Ox" Anderson (Christian Slater) also uses an M1928A1. Since this is a Woo film, whenever Enders or Ox comes running in, all it takes is a good hip fired burst from their Thompsons and all the Japs are dead.
M1911A1
Both Sgt. Joe Enders (Nicholas Cage) and Sgt. Pete "Ox" Anderson (Christian Slater) use M1911A1 pistols as their sidearms.
