:As for the Maxim MG08. I have no reason to doubt that you are correct with regards to them being modified Vickers.

Revision as of 12:35, 24 February 2015

New article

Like always I will add the screencaps later. I always preferr to make an article first with text and then add photos. The latter will be uploaded tomorrow. Dudester32 (talk) 13:06, 23 February 2015 (EST)

You can always do this on the talk page or on a personal sandbox. Leaving a page in this state just looks bad. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:14, 23 February 2015 (EST)
Did not know there was a sandbox. In any case I'll think about it next time. Dudester32 (talk) 13:41, 23 February 2015 (EST)
Here. --Funkychinaman (talk) 13:46, 23 February 2015 (EST)
Fankoo! Dudester32 (talk) 13:47, 23 February 2015 (EST)

My two cents: Lee-Enfield rifles look more like Mannlicher or Carcano. Carbines aren't M1907 but rather M1938. MG08-style Maxims are visually modified Vickers. The short-barrel revolvers are Webley Bulldog. Unknown revolver #1 seems to be a Colt, while Unknown revolver #2 looks like S&W M&P. Greg-Z (talk) 04:38, 24 February 2015 (EST)

Regarding Lee-Enfield. The LE-rifles in the movie seems to have the trademark LE-magazine. The Mannlicher and Carcano rifles, assuming I've seen them all, have smooth magazines attached. Dudester32 (talk) 05:36, 24 February 2015 (EST)
Several Lee-Enfield looking rifles in the hands of Bolshevik soldiers.
I've never heard about Lee-Enfield with straight bolt handle, that's why I looked on Mannlichers. If these rifles are LE, then they look like pre-SMLE Mk.I (note the forend of the barrel). Greg-Z (talk) 05:56, 24 February 2015 (EST)
Me neither. Thats why I was skeptical too. They dont look 100% like a LE we are used too. Dudester32 (talk) 05:58, 24 February 2015 (EST)
Those are definitely not Enfields. --Funkychinaman (talk) 06:58, 24 February 2015 (EST)
Then what are they? I don't know of any other rifle with that same magazine. Im not saying they are Lee-Enfields, but I have no other rifle in mind. Dudester32 (talk) 07:02, 24 February 2015 (EST)
At first I thought maybe Gewehr 88s, but I don't think that's what they are. It appears the filming was done in Spain and Yugoslavia, so we can go from there. You may also want to reach out to Nyles or Stomper. Those guys know their old rifles. --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:35, 24 February 2015 (EST)
