The following firearms were used in the film Shining Through:


Walther P38

Several German officers carry a Walther P38 in their holsters. At the end of the film, Ed Leland (Michael Douglas) uses a Walther P38 to kill a German officer and a German soldier when he runs towards the German border (he manages to fire 15 shots from his 8-shot Walther). Franz Otto Deitrich (Liam Neeson) is seen loading a P38 when he suspects Linda Voss (Melanie Griffith) of being an Allied spy.

Walther PPK

Margrete von Eberstein (Joely Richardson) uses a Walther PPK to shoot Voss twice at the end of the film. Wounded, Voss takes the PPK and shoots Eberstein in the head.

Mauser K98K

Mauser K98Ks are the most common German infantry weapon in the film, which is accurate. A German soldier uses a Mauser rifle to wound Leland in the knee and the shoulder at the end of the movie when he struggles to get to the Swiss-German border.

MP40

The MP40 is very briefly seen by some German soldiers, and is not as common in the film as the Mauser K98K.
