Rifles

M1 Garand

Quint (Robert Shaw) keeps an M1 Garand aboard his boat and is seen using it during the shark's night attack. Chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) uses the Garand against the shark at the climax of the film. Several Coast Guard members are also armed with M1s, most notably when they surround the two boys wearing a fake shark fin.

M1 Carbine

One of the men patrolling the waters on the Fourth of July is armed with an M1 Carbine. The rifle, which is often without a magazine loaded, appears to be fitted with adjustable rear sights as seen on post-WW2 M1 Carbines, but without the bayonet lug.

Arisaka Rifle

When posing with what they believe to be the shark causing all the carnage, one of the men in the group (at the far right) carries what appears to be an Arisaka Type 38. Not implausible; the movie was filmed in 1974 and war souvenir firearms were still very plentiful and affordable.
