The following firearms were used in the 1966 spy-thriller Funeral in Berlin:
Handguns
Korth Blank Firing Revolver
Harry Palmer (Michael Caine) uses a Korth blank firing revolver (see the discussion page for extra files which contain spoilers).
Frommer Stop
One of Kreutzman’s henchmen uses a Frommer Stop.
Mauser HSc
One of the Israeli agents is armed with Mauser HSc.
Walther PP
Several characters use the Walther PP during the film.
Colt Detective Special
In a continuity error Harry’s revolver becomes a Colt Detective Special when he checks it in his hotel room. This could be due to the interior scenes being filmed in Britain where the German props were unavailable.
Unidentified pistol
One on the Israeli agents is seen briefly carrying an automatic pistol of some form. The scene is very quick so identification is tricky.
Submachine Guns
Sterling SMG
Several characters use Sterling sub-machine guns.
Sten Mk II
A Sten Mk II is used by the Israeli agent and is briefly seen being used by an East German Border guard. This is a Mk II as it has a metal T-stock and no pistol grip, but is fitted with a Mk V sight (see discussion for extra notes).
Rifles
Sturmgewehr 44
These weapons are used by East German Border Gaurds and Police.
AKS-47 Rifle
One of the East German Guards carries a folding-stock AKS-47 rifle. In a continuity error this becomes a standard fixed stock version of the AK rifle, but as most of the weapon is not visible identification is impossible.
