The following guns were used in the film Mad Max:

Mad Max (1979)


Mauser C96 'Broomhandle'

Bubba Zanetti (Geoff Parry) briefly uses a Mauser C96 to shoot a mannequin when the other bikers are messing around at the beach.

Mauser C96 "Red 9" Version for the German Army - 9mm. This model is World War One dated.
Bubba holds his Broomhandle behind Johnny.
Johnny shoots the mannequin with the shotgun before Bubba with his Broomhandle.

Smith & Wesson Model 28

The MFP carry Smith & Wesson Model 28 as their standard issue. Although they are rarely drawn and seen mostly in their holsters. Bubba is seen firing one at Max near the end of the film.

When Max puts on the "Grumpy" mask when his wife is mad that he is going in to work early because Goose wants him to, their baby is seen on the living room floor, apparently playing with Max's revolver.

Smith & Wesson Model 28 .357 magnum.

Bubba takes aim at Max's left knee.
Max's Smith & Wesson Model 28 remains in his holster when his right arm is run over by Bubba Zanetti.

Double Barrel Shotguns

A Bentley shotgun of the same model listed below as the sawn-off, quite possibly the same shotgun later cut down for Max's use. Notable are the same white ring around the base of the grip, the proportions of the steel receiver (namely the flat space between the end of the chamber and the back of the receiver), and the same checkering pattern and locking screw on the forearm. First seen by an eager MFP patrol man Roop (Steve Millichamp) when he tries to shoot the Night Rider in the films opening. Another is used by Johnny (Tim Burns) to shoot a sex doll when the bikers are at the beach. Max also keeps one of these weapons close by after he resigns from MPF and goes traveling with his wife and child.

His grip changes from two hands to one hand with each camera angle.
Roop fires one round from his shotgun at the Night Rider. But the Night Rider brakes just in time causing Roop to hit a sign instead and Charlie to spin the car out.
Johnny shoots the sex doll before Bubba.

Late in the movie, May Swaisey (Sheila Florance) the old woman that Max and family are staying with uses this gun to corner Toecutter's biker thugs into a shed. Could be a Charles Parker 1878 side by side.

May Swaisey fires her last round as Toecutter's gang gains on Max's wife as she tries to escape.

Sawn Off Double barrel shotgun

Max's (Mel Gibson) main weapon in the movie, and possibly a Savage/Stevens 311A Shotgun, but more likely a VG Bentley. When battling against the Biker Gang, Max for some odd reason makes an effort to reach this shotgun when his leg is damaged but armed with a S&W 29 and doesn't even use it when he can.
