Talk:Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows

I think it's safe to say that these aren't Gewehr 1898s. See below. --Funkychinaman 23:35, 27 October 2011 (CDT)

The magazine that extends out of the rifle.

Muzzle looks weird.

Gewehr 1888's? It's got the fat muzzle. And the Austro-Hungarian Army did use a licensed copy. [1] --Funkychinaman 23:48, 27 October 2011 (CDT)

Also, the rifle in the trailer has a visible magazine , the 98 does not have one. -G36Ghost.

Mauser M712

In the trailer between 32-34 seconds an unknown character can be seen loading a mazing into a C-96 pattern pistol, implying the M712. I would include this but am still somewhat unfamiliar with Wiki editing, and more importantly, how to upload a picture. Not to shirk responsibility, but if someone more knowledgeable can do it, thanks. --Rebusdi 21:28, 28 October 2011 (CDT)

Man portable machine gun

There was a scene where Watson took hold of a weird weapon that looks like nothing I've ever seen before and fits a top shiny banana shaped magazine and was firing it full auto Excalibur01 11:22, 17 December 2011 (CST)

The closest I can come is a Beretta M1918, though I have a feeling that's incorrect.User:pastorhack

From how cumbersome and awkward it looked, think it could be a Villar-Perosa OVP M1918, the regular automatic carbine version of the Villar-Perosa submachine gun. --commando552 09:58, 18 December 2011 (CST)

Just noticed that it is actually visible for a few frames in the trailer:

To me this doesn't look like and OVP or a Beretta M1918, so am stumped. Neither of these guns have a magazine well like this. The profile of the barrel looks a bit like the OVP but it is too thick. I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that this weapon is mockup up from something else. This gun doesn't seem to have any sights, and that silver bit behind the magazine could be the receiver of a donor weapon which has a conventional layout. --commando552 10:15, 18 December 2011 (CST)

It's a mocked-up Villar-Perosa--Mandolin 18:54, 18 December 2011 (CST)

Anachronistic

this movie actualy takes place in 1891 and not 1882 as this artical states --Armyguy277 14:03, 18 December 2011 (CST)

The text states 1892. --Jcordell 14:16, 18 December 2011 (CST)

shotgun
