Fury is a 2014 World War II film starring Brad Pitt as a US Army tank commander fighting during the closing months of the war in Europe. The film was directed by David Ayer and the cast includes Logan Lerman, Jon Bernthal, Michael Pena, and Shia LaBeouf. The film's production went to great lengths to provide accurate weaponry and armor for the period, including utilizing the only working Tiger tank left in existence.
The following weapons were used in the film Fury (2014):
The Smith & Wesson M1917 revolver with custom pexiglass "sweetheart" grips is seen carried by Staff Sergeant Don "Wardaddy" Collier (Brad Pitt). He is notably seen using the revolver to coax Norman Ellison (Logan Lerman) into killing a German soldier.
Colt M1911A1
The M1911A1 is seen carried by various US soldiers, including Boyd "Bible" Swan (Shia LaBeouf).
Luger P08
At the film's opening, Wardaddy is seen with what appears to be a Luger P08 that was presumably taken from the German officer on horseback that he fought with.
Walther P38
A Walther P38 is seen in the hands of a German officer (David Rae) in the Tiger tank.
Submachine Guns
M1A1 Thompson
The M1A1 Thompson is seen used by the crew of the Fury, including Grady "Coon-Ass" Travis (Jon Bernthal) and Boyd "Bible" Swan (Shia LaBeouf). Other US Soldiers are also seen using it.
The MP40 was the most common submachine gun used by the German Army during WWII. It is seen used in the film by the Wehrmacht and the Waffen SS and mostly wielded by officers. Interestingly, some US Soldiers are also seen using MP40s.
Rifles/Carbines
M1 Garand
Standard issue rifle of the US military during WWII, the M1 Garand is carried by US troops.
A main battle rifle for the German forces is the Karabiner 98k.
Karabiner 98k (Sniper)
A German sniper (Jaime FitzSimons) in the end uses a sniper variant of the Karabiner 98k.
Sturmgewehr 44
The Sturmgewehr 44 was the first such rifle to be termed an "assault rifle" and was introduced by the German army late in the war. This is the weapon carried by Wardaddy (Brad Pitt), likely commandeered from a German soldier. The rifle starts in the film missing its front sight hood, but with it in every scene afterwards. Several German SS troops in the end uses the Sturmgewhr 44 as well with Bible (Shia LaBeouf) acquiring one temporarily.
Machine Guns
M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle
The Browning Automatic Rifle, or 'B.A.R' was the standard Squad Automatic Weapon for U.S. rifle squads in WWII and is seen used by American troops in the film.
Browning M1919A4
The Browning M1919A4 .30 caliber machine gun is shown mounted on the Fury, the M4 Sherman tank. The Fury also mounts two more M1919's; one in a coaxial mount next to the M1A1C 76mm main gun, and another mounted in the bow of the hull. Note that having two machine guns atop the turret is very unusual for Shermans; they usually either mounted an M1919 or a Browning M2HB as mentioned below. One soldier seen assaulting the town wields a M1919 and hip-fires it.
Browning M2HB
The Browning M2HB heavy machine gun can be seen mounted on the M4 sherman tanks, including Fury. Wardaddy (Brad Pitt) himself uses the machine gun in the finale.

In one instance, the German SS troops attempt to blind Fury by placing NG 39 smoke grenades.
