The Callup, (Swedish: "Repmånad"), is a Swedish comedy from 1979. It follows a squad of former soldiers during their obligatory one-month military refresher course (known as "Repmånad").
The following firearms were seen in the film "The Callup"/"Repmånad".
Carl Gustav M/45B
The primary weapon of the characters is the Swedish Carl Gustav M/45B SMG. Most of the time it's seen with a special blank-firing device and a brass-catcher.
Heckler & Koch G3A3/Ak 4
Though the main characters use the older M45 SMG, some of the extras use the Ak 4, a Heckler & Koch G3A3 modified for the needs of the Swedish Military.
Kulspruta M/1936
The Kulspruta M/1936, (literary translated as "Bulletsprayer M/1936", though internationally known as "Machine gun M/1936"), is the Swedish version of the Browning M1917 as seen during a training exercise. This particular MG was partially replaced by the "KSP 58" (Swedish FN MAG designation), in the 60's. The last Swedish M/1936 were replaced late 80's, early 90's by the same FN MAG/KSP 58 weapon.
Unknown SMG
In a dream sequence, a soldier is seen with an unknown SMG. It is possible the weapon is a Bergmann MP18 or Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II.
