Sitting Target is a 1972 British-American crime drama directed by Douglas Hickox and starring Oliver Reed as Harry Lomart, an escaped convict who wants to kill his treacherous wife.
The following weapons were used in the film Sitting Target:
Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer
Harry Lomart (Oliver Reed) uses a detachable magazine-fed, select-fire Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer pistol with holster-stock and sniper scope. The gun dealer (Robert Beatty) who sells the pistol describe it as "Mauser pistol carbine, caliber 9 mm" which isn't correct as Schnellfeuer (and its Spanish full-auto counterparts) appeared only in 7.63 mm caliber. Mauser is also seen in hands of Birdy Williams (Ian McShane).
Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I(T) Rifle
In the final scene a police sniper fires a bolt action rifle that appears to be a No.4 Mk.I(T).
