Carry on, Sergeant! is 1928 Canadian World War I silent film directed and produced by Bruce Bairnsfather. The story follows a group of workers from Hamilton who join the army to fight on the Western front, and the travails and temptations that befall them during the war.


The following weapons were used in the film Carry on, Sergeant!:


Revolvers

Rifles

Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III*

Canadian soldiers are armed with British Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* rifles, which is historically incorrect as the Canadian forces were armed with Ross Rifles during the Second Battle of Ypres. German soldiers also use this rifle instead of correct Mauser Gewehr 1898 rifles.

Lee-Enfield No.1 Mk.III* - .303 British. This was the main battle rifle of British and Commonwealth forces during the First World War.

Machine Guns

Maxim 1895

Canadian soldiers use Maxim 1895 machine guns. This is not entirely wrong because the British Expeditionary Force was still equipped with Maxims when sent to France in 1914.
