71: Into the Fire
The following weapons were seen in the film 71: Into the Fire:
M1 Garand
Most of the South Korean, US, and student soldiers use M1 Garand rifles. The rifle is shown extensively as the learn the basics. Many of the things taught to the students regarding the M1 Garand is good solid information. For the most part the Garand is shown being used correctly and I can only note one Hollywood style moment. The Hollywood moment would be when prior to the final battle a series of camera angles show many of the students loading their rifles simply by grasping the closed charging handle and racking it without inserting an en bloc clip. As the en bloc clips cannot be held in the rifle without chambering a round this is incorrect. Perhaps one of the more accurate moments in when Jang-Beom loads an individual round into the Garand and eases the bolt onto it instead of slamming it shut. If a round is chambered by hand and the bolt is allowed to ride freely onto it with no resistance met a slam fire is possible.
M1 Carbine
Some of the South Korean and US soldiers wield M1 Carbines with 30 round magazines.
Mosin-Nagant
Most of the North Korean soldiers use Mosin Nagant rifles.
SKS
The SKS is seen briefly in the hands of North Korean soldiers.
PPSh-41
Some North Korean soldiers and some students are seen wielding the PPSh-41 submachine-gun. Most notably Kap-jo at the end of the film.
Maxim M1910
The Maxim M1910 is used on the rooftop By Jang-Beom and Kap-Jo
Degtyaryov DPM
The Degtyaryov DP is used to great effect on the rooftop.
Nambu Type 14
The Nambu Type 14 pistol can be seen in the hands of several North Korean Officers. Most notably Mu-Rang carries one.
M1911A1
The M1911A1 pistol makes an appearance in the hands of Suk-Dae
