Behold a Pale Horse
The following firearms can be seen in Behold A Pale Horse (1964):
Behold A Pale Horse is a 1964 movie that has faded into obscurity. No doubt one of the things that hurt it at the box-office (in the United States) was it was a story about the aftermath of the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). An event that most Americans no little about. Gregory Peck plays Manuel Artiguez, a die-hard Nationalist (the side that lost) who lives in exile in Southern France, but continues to conduct raids into Northern Spain. Even though the war has been over for twenty years. His rival is Capt. Vinolas of the Guardia Civil, the national Spanish police, played by Anthony Quinn. After twenty years Vinolas (Anthony Quinn) believes he has finally has a plan that will bring about the destruction of Artiguez (Gregory Peck). The stage is set for the final battle between the two men
Mauser C96 Broomhandle
Manuel Artiguez (Gregory Peck) uses a Mauser C96 as his sidearm.
Sten Mk II
Manuel Artiguez (Gregory Peck) uses the Sten Mk II as his primary firearm during the film's climax.
Schmeisser MP28/II
Several of the Guardia Civil officers use the Schmeisser MP28/II as their sidearm.
Mauser Gewehr 1898 Rifle
Other Guardia Civil carry the Mauser Gewehr 1898. Though it would stand to reason the Spanish Police would carry Spanish Mausers the movie was filmed in France and there were probably an abundance of the 1898 Mauser in 1963. Possibly the Spanish Mauser was not yet so freely available.
MK II Hand Grenade
Artiguez (Gregory Peck) has a couple MK II hand grenades that he also uses against the Guardia Civil during the film's climax.
