In one scene, a German soldier carries a Fusil mitrailleur modele 1924 M29. These French light machine guns, better known as the FM 24/29, were really used by Germans under the designation leMG 116(f). Due to the absence of original French 7.5mm cartridges, the movie-used machine gun is converted to use 7.62x39mm cartridges; an AKM magazine is seen (due to its curved shape, this FM 24/29 resembles a Bren).
