Carve Her Name With Pride
The following firearms can be seen in the film Carve Her Name With Pride:
High Standard HDM
During training with the Special Operations Executive, Violette Szabo (Virginia McKenna) test-fires a High Standard HDM, a pistol used by many other covert agents at the time.
Walther PPK
After a routine bridge-bombing exercise, SOE agent Lilian Rolfe (Anne Leon) pulls a Walther PPK on their training sergeant.
unidentified bolt-action rifle
A French Resistance agent near Limoges uses a bolt-action rifle to kill a German soldier, bringing attention to Jacques and Violette.
unidentified revolver
The French Resistance captain Jacques (Maurice Ronet) carries a top-break revolver, which he uses when he engages a German soldier in a gunfight near Limoges.
Sten
Like many SOE operatives (and her real-life counterpart), Violette carries a Sten, reloading it during the gun battle and firing it until it runs out of ammunition.
Luger P08
The German officers all carry the Luger P08 as a personal sidearm, as does the motorcycle soldier that gets into a gunfight with Jacques.
MG42
The German tanks that Jacques and Violette attack have MG42 machine guns mounted on them.
Karabiner 98k
Almost all of the German soldiers carry Karabiner 98k bolt-action rifles.
MP40
Some of the Germans chasing Jacques and Violette have MP40 submachine guns. The execution squad at Ravensbruck concentration camp uses MP40s.
