Ithaca 37 pump action shotgun

Not a Remington Model 31 as prevously mentioned. You can tell it is a Ithica 37 because of the lack of an side ejection port and the . It is also used to shoot the dogs and Windows manages to grab one before he is subdued by the others. MacReady (Kurt Russell) is also seen with one at the Norwegian base.

Thermite Gernade

It can not be conclusivly said to be a thermite gernade but this can be assumed due to the cylander shape and the explosions produce a lot of sparks. We also know that the Norwegians had thermite charges. This grenade is used by one of the Norwegians. It slips from his hand, and on explosion it kills his colleague and destroys the helicopter.
