The firearms seen in the upcoming World War II Quentin Tarantino film ''Inglorious Basterds'' include the following...
'''''Inglourious Basterds''''' is a 2009 World War II film written and directed by [[Quentin Tarantino]] and starring [[Brad Pitt]], [[Christoph Waltz]], [[Michael Fassbender]], [[Mélanie Laurent]], and [[Eli Roth]]. His eighth feature, Tarantino had started writing this film's screenplay in 1998, but had put it off to make ''[[Kill Bill]]'' when he couldn't come with an ending. Although the title is similar to the film ''[[The Inglorious Bastards]]'', two films have little in common aside from the World War II setting and cameos by director [[Enzo G. Castellari]] and actor [[Bo Svenson]]. The film received eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Original Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture and [[Christoph Waltz]] received the award for Best Supporting Actor.

=Handguns=
==Walther P38==
SD Standartenfuhrer Hans Landa ([[Christoph Waltz]]), Gestapo Major Hellstrom ([[August Diehl]]) and several other German officers carry [[Walther P38]] pistols. At the end, Landa hands his P38 to Aldo Raine ([[Brad Pitt]]), who fires it himself. During the Nadine tavern gunfight, Hellstrom fires a P38 as do other German soldiers in the bar and Cpl. Wilhelm Wicki ([[Gedeon Burkhard]]), one of the "basterds".

==Walther PPK==
When disguised as an SS Hauptshturmfuhrer, British Lt. Archie Hicox ([[Michael Fassbender]]) carries a [[Walther PPK]]. During the same part of Operation Kino, Hugo Stiglitz ([[Til Schweiger]]) disguises himself as a Obersturmfuhrer (Lieutenant First Class) and packs his own PPK. Both men end up aiming their pistols at Gestapo Major Hellstrom. After the gunfight in the Nadine tavern, Bridget von Hammersmark ([[Diane Kruger]]) picks up Hicox's PPK and fires it.

==Luger P08==
As Lt. Raine "debriefs" Bridget by pressing his index finger into her leg wound, Donny Donowitz ([[Eli Roth]]) holds his [[Luger P08]] on her. Fredrick Zoller ([[Daniel Brühl]]), a German private, carries a Luger as his issued sidearm and arms himself with it while attending the premiere of "Nation's Pride". Several characters (including the Basterds) have Luger holsters on their belts.

[[Image:Ib-luger4.jpg|thumb|none|600px|Zoller fires his Luger.]]
 
==FN Model 1905 or Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket==
Shosanna Dreyfus ([[Mélanie Laurent]]) prepares for trouble at the premiere of "Nation's Pride" by loading a small pistol and keeping it in her purse, eventually drawing and firing it. This is most probably either a [[FN Model 1905]] or a [[Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket]]. Two pistols are virtually identical, coming from the same design by John Browning which he sold to [[FN Herstal]] in Belgium and [[Colt]] in USA. They are most easily distinguished by the grip designs and logos, but as the grips of Shosanna's pistol are never seen clearly enough to identify, her pistol could be either the FN 1905 or Colt 1908, or one of the many FN 1905 imitations made by firearms manufacturers across Europe.

=Shotguns=
==Sawed-Off Over/Under Shotgun==
When the "basterds" break Stiglitz out of custody from a Berlin jail, Donny Donowitz ([[Eli Roth]]) carries a Sawed-off Over/Under Shotgun, using it to shoot a German soldier guarding Stiglitz. It is best seen on a promotional image (seen in the Discussion section of this article).

==Double-Barreled Shotgun==
Eric ([[Christian Berkel]]), the owner of the tavern in Nadine, keeps a hammerless [[12 Gauge Double Barreled Shotgun|Double-Barreled Shotgun]] behind the bar, firing it when the gunfight begins.

=Submachine Guns=
==MP38/MP40==
Many German soldiers and guards are seen with a mix of [[MP38]] and [[MP40]]s throughout the film. Several of the "Basterds" use MP40s as well, including S/Sgt. Donny Donowitz ([[Eli Roth]]), PFC Smithson Utivich ([[B.J. Novak]]), PFC Omar Ulmer ([[Omar Doom]]), PFC Gerold Hirschberg ([[Samm Levine]]), and Oberfeldwebel Hugo Stiglitz ([[Til Schweiger]]). Wilhelm ([[Alexander Fehling]]), another Oberfeldwebel, gets ahold of an MP40 during the Nadine tavern gunfight.

==M1928/M1928A1 Thompson==
Some of the American soldiers in "Nation's Pride" carry [[M1928/M1928A1 Thompson]]s.

[[Image:M3_Grease.jpg|thumb|none|400px|M3 Grease Gun - .45 ACP. The later model M3A1 would eliminate the crank lever for cocking the bolt, and instead used a simple hole in the bolt for the shooter to use their finger.]]

=Rifles/Carbines=
==M1 Garand==
==M1 Garand==
[[M1 Garand]]s were seen slung over the shoulders of the Basterds when first assembled, but never used throughout the film. They were also seen in the movie within the movie, Nation's Pride.
As the "Basterds" are first assembled, [[M1 Garand]] rifles are seen slung over the shoulders of Wilhelm Wicki ([[Gedeon Burkhard]]), Smithson Utivich ([[B.J. Novak]]), PFC Andy Kagan ([[Paul Rust]]), PFC Michael Zimmerman ([[Michael Bacall]]), PFC Simon Sakowitz ([[Carlos Fidel]]), PFC Omar Ulmer ([[Omar Doom]]), and PFC Gerold Hirschberg ([[Samm Levine]]). They are also wielded by some of the American soldiers in the film-within-a-film "Nation's Pride".

==Mauser Karabiner 98k==
==Karabiner 98k==
[[Karabiner 98k]]s were seen used by German soldiers and the Basterds. Fredrick Zoller ([[Daniel Brühl]]) uses one when playing himself in ''Nation's Pride'' and can be seen holding it on the poster. The film-within-a-film "Nation's Pride", presumably made as Nazi propaganda, appears to have been edited to make Zoller's Karabiner 98k appear to fire semi-automatic shots rather than bolt-action.
Some of the "basterds", including Lt. Aldo Raine ([[Brad Pitt]]), Wilhelm Wicki ([[Gedeon Burkhard]]), and PFC Gerold Hirschberg ([[Samm Levine]]) carry German [[Karabiner 98k]] rifles, most likely taken from German troops they captured and killed. Raine's Karabiner has "Inglourious Basterds" carved into the butt. In the propaganda film-within-a-film "Nation's Pride", Fredrick Zoller ([[Daniel Brühl]]) also fires a Karabiner 98k. With trick editing in "Nation's Pride" (presumably to make the single German soldier appear like a "superhero" to the German audiences), Zoller's bolt-action Karabiner is made to appear to fire semi-automatic shots.

==MP40==
==M1 Carbine==
Germans and Basterds, such as S/Sgt. Donny Donowitz ([[Eli Roth]]), Hugo Stiglitz ([[Til Schweiger]]), and PFC Omar Ulmer ([[Omar Doom]]), were using [[MP40]]s throughout the entire movie. Wilhelm ([[Alexander Fehling]]), a German soldier, uses an MP40 during the "Mexican standoff" with Aldo.

The [[MG42]] was seen held by Hugo Stiglitz ([[Til Schweiger]]). In the first trailer, we see one of the Basterds running down a hallway, firing an MG42, but it was never seen in the final cut.

==Walther PPK==
=Others=
British Lt. Archie Hicox ([[Michael Fassbender]]), disguised as an SS Captain, points his [[Walther PPK]] at Major Dieter Hellstrom of the Gestapo. Hugo Stiglitz ([[Til Schweiger]]) also holds a PPK on him until he shoots him, resulting in a firefight in a tavern. Bridget ([[Diane Kruger]]), being the only survivor of the firefight, later picks up this gun and uses it to shoot Wilhelm.  
==OSS pistol glove==
[[Image:Walther-PPK.jpg|thumb|300px|none|Walther PPK in 7.65x17mm Auto (.32 ACP)]]
Donny Donowitz ([[Eli Roth]]) and Omar Ulmer ([[Omar Doom]]) each use a .38 caliber short-range [[OSS Pistol Glove]] when assassinating two guards outside the German high command. As in real life, these weapons are loaded with a .38 round and punched into the target to fire it.

[[Image:IGK98K.jpg|thumb|right|300px|''Nation's Pride'' (1944(supposedly))]]


==Walther P38==
'''''Nation's Pride (Stolz der Nation)''''' is the film-within-a-film in ''Inglourious Basterds'', directed by [[Eli Roth]] (as German director Alois von Eichberg). Although in ''Inglourious Basterds'' the film is described as requiring at least four reels, which would imply a running time of at least 44-48 minutes, the film is actually only a little over six minutes, five without the opening credits. The film features a cameo by [[Bo Svenson]], star of the original ''[[The Inglorious Bastards]]'' as an American colonel who is reluctant to destroy the ancient tower occupied by Fredrick Zoller ([[Daniel Brühl]]). The entire film (all 6:10 of it) and an accompanying making-of featurette, starring Roth, Brühl, Sylvester Groth and Julie Dreyfus in characters, are included in home video copies.
SD Col. Hans Landa ([[Christoph Waltz]]), Gestapo Maj. Hellstrom ([[August Diehl]]) and several other German officers carry [[Walther P38]] pistols. At the end, Landa hands his to Aldo Raine ([[Brad Pitt]]), who uses it to shoot Landa's driver.

When the bastards break Hugo Stiglitz out of prison in the hopes of him joining their ranks, one of the bastards can be seen holding a shotgun sawed down to the length of large handgun/small carbine. This shotgun appeared so brief and no close ups, that only a promotional photo of [[Eli Roth]] holding it can confirm what it is.
American troops are seen with [[M1 Garand]]s.

Inglourious Basterds is a 2009 World War II film written and directed by Quentin Tarantino and starring Brad Pitt, Christoph Waltz, Michael Fassbender, Mélanie Laurent, and Eli Roth. His eighth feature, Tarantino had started writing this film's screenplay in 1998, but had put it off to make Kill Bill when he couldn't come with an ending. Although the title is similar to the film The Inglorious Bastards, two films have little in common aside from the World War II setting and cameos by director Enzo G. Castellari and actor Bo Svenson. The film received eight Academy Award nominations, including Best Original Screenplay, Best Director and Best Picture and Christoph Waltz received the award for Best Supporting Actor.


The following weapons were used in the film Inglourious Basterds:

Handguns

Walther P38

SD Standartenfuhrer Hans Landa (Christoph Waltz), Gestapo Major Hellstrom (August Diehl) and several other German officers carry Walther P38 pistols. At the end, Landa hands his P38 to Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), who fires it himself. During the Nadine tavern gunfight, Hellstrom fires a P38 as do other German soldiers in the bar and Cpl. Wilhelm Wicki (Gedeon Burkhard), one of the "basterds".

Walther PPK

When disguised as an SS Hauptshturmfuhrer, British Lt. Archie Hicox (Michael Fassbender) carries a Walther PPK. During the same part of Operation Kino, Hugo Stiglitz (Til Schweiger) disguises himself as a Obersturmfuhrer (Lieutenant First Class) and packs his own PPK. Both men end up aiming their pistols at Gestapo Major Hellstrom. After the gunfight in the Nadine tavern, Bridget von Hammersmark (Diane Kruger) picks up Hicox's PPK and fires it.

Luger P08

As Lt. Raine "debriefs" Bridget by pressing his index finger into her leg wound, Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth) holds his Luger P08 on her. Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl), a German private, carries a Luger as his issued sidearm and arms himself with it while attending the premiere of "Nation's Pride". Several characters (including the Basterds) have Luger holsters on their belts.

FN Model 1905 or Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket

Shosanna Dreyfus (Mélanie Laurent) prepares for trouble at the premiere of "Nation's Pride" by loading a small pistol and keeping it in her purse, eventually drawing and firing it. This is most probably either a FN Model 1905 or a Colt Model 1908 Vest Pocket. Two pistols are virtually identical, coming from the same design by John Browning which he sold to FN Herstal in Belgium and Colt in USA. They are most easily distinguished by the grip designs and logos, but as the grips of Shosanna's pistol are never seen clearly enough to identify, her pistol could be either the FN 1905 or Colt 1908, or one of the many FN 1905 imitations made by firearms manufacturers across Europe.

Shotguns

Sawed-Off Over/Under Shotgun

When the "basterds" break Stiglitz out of custody from a Berlin jail, Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth) carries a Sawed-off Over/Under Shotgun, using it to shoot a German soldier guarding Stiglitz. It is best seen on a promotional image (seen in the Discussion section of this article).

Double-Barreled Shotgun

Eric (Christian Berkel), the owner of the tavern in Nadine, keeps a hammerless Double-Barreled Shotgun behind the bar, firing it when the gunfight begins.

Unless those were rounds from other firearms (which is doubtful, since the rounds aimed at him are from an angle and not perpendicular to the table), there is no way the shotgun was able to spread the pellets that much at that close of range. This shot was only in the trailer and not in the final cut.

Submachine Guns

MP38/MP40

Many German soldiers and guards are seen with a mix of MP38 and MP40s throughout the film. Several of the "Basterds" use MP40s as well, including S/Sgt. Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth), PFC Smithson Utivich (B.J. Novak), PFC Omar Ulmer (Omar Doom), PFC Gerold Hirschberg (Samm Levine), and Oberfeldwebel Hugo Stiglitz (Til Schweiger). Wilhelm (Alexander Fehling), another Oberfeldwebel, gets ahold of an MP40 during the Nadine tavern gunfight.

Rifles/Carbines

M1 Garand

As the "Basterds" are first assembled, M1 Garand rifles are seen slung over the shoulders of Wilhelm Wicki (Gedeon Burkhard), Smithson Utivich (B.J. Novak), PFC Andy Kagan (Paul Rust), PFC Michael Zimmerman (Michael Bacall), PFC Simon Sakowitz (Carlos Fidel), PFC Omar Ulmer (Omar Doom), and PFC Gerold Hirschberg (Samm Levine). They are also wielded by some of the American soldiers in the film-within-a-film "Nation's Pride".

Karabiner 98k

Some of the "basterds", including Lt. Aldo Raine (Brad Pitt), Wilhelm Wicki (Gedeon Burkhard), and PFC Gerold Hirschberg (Samm Levine) carry German Karabiner 98k rifles, most likely taken from German troops they captured and killed. Raine's Karabiner has "Inglourious Basterds" carved into the butt. In the propaganda film-within-a-film "Nation's Pride", Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl) also fires a Karabiner 98k. With trick editing in "Nation's Pride" (presumably to make the single German soldier appear like a "superhero" to the German audiences), Zoller's bolt-action Karabiner is made to appear to fire semi-automatic shots.

Others

OSS pistol glove

Donny Donowitz (Eli Roth) and Omar Ulmer (Omar Doom) each use a .38 caliber short-range OSS Pistol Glove when assassinating two guards outside the German high command. As in real life, these weapons are loaded with a .38 round and punched into the target to fire it.

Nation's Pride (Stolz der Nation)

Error creating thumbnail: File missing
Nation's Pride (1944(supposedly))

Nation's Pride (Stolz der Nation) is the film-within-a-film in Inglourious Basterds, directed by Eli Roth (as German director Alois von Eichberg). Although in Inglourious Basterds the film is described as requiring at least four reels, which would imply a running time of at least 44-48 minutes, the film is actually only a little over six minutes, five without the opening credits. The film features a cameo by Bo Svenson, star of the original The Inglorious Bastards as an American colonel who is reluctant to destroy the ancient tower occupied by Fredrick Zoller (Daniel Brühl). The entire film (all 6:10 of it) and an accompanying making-of featurette, starring Roth, Brühl, Sylvester Groth and Julie Dreyfus in characters, are included in home video copies.

The following firearms were used in the film Nation's Pride (Stolz der Nation):
