Another Maxim is mounted on the tripod mount. It is used by the Austro-Hungarian soldiers. Supposedly the mount belongs to the Schwarzlose Machine Gun Model 07/12 which could be intended to make the machine gun look more "Austrian-like". Note that there are two slightly different Maxims: the one on the upper screenshot belongs to the post-1941 version while the other one is an early model. Only the lower one is firing in the movie.

The 3-inch Russian gun M1927 is used by the Austro-Hungarian soldiers in the scene that takes place in 1918. This is an anachronism, but a weapon (except the wheels) is similar to the 3-inch Russian gun M1913 which really could be captured by Austrian troops.
