Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster
The following firearms were used in the film Godzilla vs. the Sea Monster:
Rifle
This briefly-seen carbine (?) rifle is seen wielded by the bank robber Yoshimura (Akira Takarada) aboard the yacht. Ryota (Tooru Watanabe) renders it completely useless by dismantling it while Yoshimura is asleep.
Fake Thompson SMG
The Red Bamboo soldiers primarily use Japanese 'flash paper' non-guns based on the Thompson sub machine gun with large suppressor-like attachments on the ends of the barrel. They are an odd hybrid of Thompson features, with the unribbed barrel of an M1 but the top-mounted charging handle of an M1928A1. For years the Japanese cinema has used their own version of 'flash paper' non guns since they for the most part, are not allowed real firearms, even their movie industry. Japanese flashpaper guns are identifiable due to the distinctive "pinkish" or "Reddish" color of the flash and the lack of ejecting brass and excessive smoke from the muzzle.
Browning M1919A4
Browning M1919A4s are seen used as sentry guns by the Red Bamboo.
MP40
A secondary firearm employed by the Red Bamboo is what appears to be the MP40.
Fictional Firearms
A few of the weapons seen in the hands of the Red Bamboo are obvious props either inspired by existing guns, or entirely fictional.
Ryuui's sidearm
Captain Ryuui (Akihiko Hirata) (named "Captain Yamoto" in the English dub) carries a chromed handgun as his primary sidearm. It appears to be an entirely fictional movie prop.
Machine pistol
At least one Red Bamboo soldier is seen with a silver-colored machine pistol that resembles a chromed MP40.
