The King's Man is a 2021 spy action film, prequel to 2015's Kingsman: The Secret Service. Matthew Vaughn returns to direct the film, which tells the story of the formation of the secret spy organization during the events of WWI. The cast includes Ralph Fiennes, Gemma Arterton, Djimon Hounsou and Daniel Brühl. The film was scheduled for release in March of 2020, but was delayed until December 22, 2021, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The following weapons were used in the film The King's Man:
Orlando, Duke of Oxford (Ralph Fiennes) is seen with an Austrian Steyr M1912 pistol. This particular pistol used by him as the founder and first Kingsman is fitted with an under barrel flare launcher, a precursor to the modern Kingsman pistol which has an under barrel shotgun feature.
A young Adolf Hitler (David Kross) disguised as a photographer uses an anachronistic Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer pistol to assassinate the Romanov family.
Orlando, Duke of Oxford (Ralph Fiennes) is seen using what appears to be a Webley .455 Mk II in a flashback to his time in the British Army during the Mahdist War.

The quick pacing and briefness of this scene make identification of this revolver difficult, but given its profile, the context of the scene, and the fact it fires double-action, a good guess would be the Webley Mk II.
A German trench raider wields a Bergmann MP18 during Conrad's mission to no man's land. As this scene is implied to take place in 1917, its appearance is slightly anachronistic.
A Mahdist is briefly seen with an unknown variant of the Martini-Henry during the Duke of Oxford's memories of the Mahdist War. A British soldier also holds a Martini-Henry in the same scene.

The rifle is only seen partially, but the Martini-Henry's distinctive breech can clearly be seen. This is the only moment when the rifle is still enough to be positively identified.
Polly Watkins / Galahad (Gemma Arterton) uses an Pattern 1914 Enfield rifle with a custom scope that appears to be a combination of Warner & Swasey M1913 musket sight and an anachronistic Unertl scope.
Austro-Hungarian soldiers carry unknown rifles during Archduke Ferdinand's assassination. Bolsheviks are also seen with unknown rifles during the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II. During the opening scene set in 1902, a Boer sniper uses an unknown scoped rifle to attack the guards of a British concentration camp.
A Lewis Gun is used in a British trench in the Western Front. The Shepherd (Matthew Goode) fires a Lewis Gun without the cooling jacket and fitted with a custom vertical foregrip during the final battle.
