King Kong (1933)
The following guns can be seen in the original version of King Kong:
Krag-Jørgensen Carbines
The Krag-Jørgensen Carbinescan seen in the hands of most of the crewman of the Venture, including Carl Denham (Robert Armstrong).
NOTE: While it is likely Carl Dehnam is using the Krag Carbine, most of the crew I believe are using M1903 Springfield rifles. This is seen probably most clearly when they are on the ship distributing rifles off the gunrack and into the longboats each time the go to the island.
A .30-30 Winchester lever action can clearly be seen used by a crewman shooting at Kong when he is trying to push through the gate into the native village
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Jack Driscoll (Bruce Cabot) and Captain Engelhorn (Frank Reicher) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 10 as their sidearm throughout the movie.
NOTE: Jack Driscoll and Captain Engelhorn I believe are actually using Colt Official Police guns with a 5 or 6 inch barrel. You can see it in their holsters. You can clearly see Jack Driscoll's gun as a Colt when they are crossing the lake on the raft in the fog and are attacked by the Brontosaurus
Lewis Gun
The Lewis gun is mounted on the gunner seat in the planes that pursue Kong.
Browning M1918 Aircraft
The Browning M1918 Aircraft machine gun is mounted on the planes that pursue Kong only that it's controlled by the pilot. These are Browning M1918 .30 cal aircraft as used in Hell's Angels. I will get more info on this rare weapon shortly. Phoenixent
