Note: Due to an escalating cost in budget many of the films weapons and props didnt work properly or looked fake. Many weapons used in the film experianced malfuntions. The M3 submachine gun Steve McQueen uses in the film kept jamming and this can be noticed in several scenes.

How does an escalating budget have anything to do with the guns jamming? or looking fake? Is it established that they replaced them with crap prop guns or something?
