Colt New Service

Dr. Rolf Pedersen (Kirk Douglas) can be seen using the Colt New Service in the movie. It is defintely a large caliber model. Either 45 Colt or .455 Eley/Webley.Looking at the ejector rod and the barrel leads me to believe it's a pre-1909 New Service.

Model 1909 Colt Army Revolver - .45 LC. This model is stamped "Property of U.S. Government" under barrel and "M1909" on front bottom of grip strap. Grips not original - US issue bore plain uncheckered walnut.

Dr. Pedersen (Kirk Douglas) also uses a Walther P38 in the movie.

Straud (Richard Harris) stands guard with a Sten. The movie was filmed on location in Norway during the winter. So it really is as cold as it looks!
