Dr. Mabuse,the Gambler is a 1922 german thriller directed by Fritz Lang and is starring Rudolf Klein-Rogge as Dr. Mabuse(a doctor using his hypnotic powers to commit crimes).
The following weapons were used in the film Dr. Mabuse,the Gambler:
The Frommer Stop pistol is the personal sidearm of state-prosecutor Norbert von Wenk(Bernhard Goetzke).It is later seen in the hands of the police Chief.
Police officers use short-barreled revolvers during the attack on the house.Their cylinders, barrel size and rods are indicating Harrington & Richardson Young America revolvers .
Hawasch(Károly Huszár) and Georg(Hans Adalbert von Schlettow) both have revolvers.Despite being hardly seen, their grips, cylinders and hammers indicate Nagant M1895 revolvers. State prosecutor von Wenk(Bernhard Goetzke) is also seen using one.
The Mauser Gewehr 1871 is the most utilised weapon in the film.The german soldiers are using Mauser Gewehr 1871 rifles (both full length and carbine versions) during the attack on the house. Hawasch(Karoly Huszar), Dr. Mabuse (Rudolf Klein-Rogge), Fine (Grete Berger) and Spoerri (Robert Forster-Larrinaga) all use carbines versions of the same rifle during the shootout.One full length rifle is also used fired from a house, by an unknown shooter.
The assault troops and state-prosecutor von Wenk(Bernhard Goetzke) are using fake hand grenades in an attempt to break the door of the house.
Note:real explosions are seen,but they were caused by(most likely) petards, and not hand grenades.
During the storm, real explosions tear down the door of the house. At a closer look, some rounded grenades are seen. They were, most probably, british No. 15 Hand Grenade "Ball"'s as they had fuses, and a similar shape.
