Webley Green
Indiana Jones (Harrison Ford) uses a Webley Green revolver as his weapon of choice in this film. During the Plane Scene, he considers using it to shoot the German Plane, only to find it with no ammo. It was previously believed that he carried a Webley Mk VI but that has now been disproven.

Walther P38
The Walther P38 is a very common weapon in this film, used by a large majority of the German Soldiers and Officers. It is also seen used by Indy during the Tank scene, using one to shoot 3 or 4 German Soldiers in a row.
Luger P08
A Luger P08 is the sidearm of Colonel Vogel (Michael Byrne).
Walther PPK
Walter Donovan (Julian Glover) carries a Walther PPK as his sidearm. He uses it to shoot Indy's Father (Sean Connery), in order to get Indy to retrieve the Holy Grail for the Germans. Another weapon of this model is used by the German Communications Officer that spots Indy and his father during the fire scene.
MP40
The German Soldiers in the Castle all use MP40 SMGs as their weapon of choice. Indy takes one from a German Officer and uses it to gun down the German Soldiers that threaten him and his father, he later drops it when Vogel holds Elsa Schneider (Alison Doody) at gunpoint, before she reveals her allegiance to the Germans.
As the film is set in 1938 this would be an anachronism, but artistic license could be claimed by saying they are meant to depict the earlier MP38 (which would be less available as a prop). At least the use of MP28 & MP35 SMGs lends more accuracy than the universal use of MP38/40's in Raiders of the Lost Ark set in 1936
Karabiner 98K
Another weapon used by the German Soldiers throughout the Film is the Karabiner 98k.
Bergmann MP35/I
When the Cultists attack the German Convoy looking for the Holy Grail, the German Soldiers are seen using Bergmann MP35/Is.
Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II
During the Boat Chase scene in Venice, Kazim (Kevork Malikyan) attempts to use a Haenel-Schmeisser MP28/II to kill Indy and Schneider. Is is also seen with the reciever catch undone.
Villar-Perosa Mod 15
In the scene where Indy and his father escape the Zeplin, they are attacked by 2 German fighter airplanes. Indy's Father uses a Villar-Perosa Mod 15 mounted on the biplane to try and hold off the fighters, but accidentally shoots the biplane's tail - While the gun is clearly SUPPOSED to be a Villar Perosa Mod 15, the actual prop used was built by mating two upside-down Beretta Mod 38/42 submachine guns. This explains the straight magazines and why it really doesn't look too much like a Villar Perosa . . .
Mauser C96
Kazim and his men use Mauser C96 pistols in Venice, most notably used to pistol whip Marcus Brody, knocking him out.
Trivia Section
- A Mark VIII Liberty Tank was used and fitted with a top mounted turret.
- The "Republic of Hatay" did exist from 1937 to 1939. But was wrongly portrayed as an Arab Monarchy with a Sultan rather than Turkish as it was.
