Fury (2014)

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):

Handguns

Smith & Wesson M1917

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.

 ==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 Browning M1919A4 from the hip.

Note that having two machine guns atop the turret is very unusual for Shermans; they were sent initially with a single Browning M2HB, switched briefly to a M1919 on a low-profile mount before reverting back to the M2 due to experiences in the field. It's possible they kept the M1919 during a transitional period. One soldier seen assaulting the town wields a Browning M1919A4 from the hip.
