Talk:You Can't Win 'Em All

Don't think those are Karabiner 98s

The Rear sight looks different than a K98. mpm

Oh right - sights broke a little :)--Pandolfini 15:21, 3 June 2012 (CDT)

No it's NOT. That's a Gewehr 98 rear sight, not a Karabiner 98K sight. Are there any other screenshots? That one rifle seems to be a pre-98K cut down conversion of a Gewehr 98 to the 98K style. MoviePropMaster2008 06:31, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

Can it be Karabiner 98 (put into service in 1902)? It has the same rear sight as Gewehr 98 and its length is right the same that is on the screenshot. It has different front sight but it's easier to convert a front sight than to cut dowb the long rifle. Greg-Z 07:04, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

It will probably Mauser - carbine is that, but do not know the specific type. So put him there add. Or write the exact link.--Pandolfini 08:20, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

If you don't know, don't do a wild guess and put the wrong identification on the pic. That makes IMFDB look bad. MoviePropMaster2008 13:45, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

It is not too wild guess, it still can be considered also as Karabiner, I personally can not tell any difference compared to the model, only is very worn. Also, it is still to enough not understand - after all Karabiner is the same as the Mauser 98, only it is a short, or no ?--Pandolfini 16:06, 4 June 2012 (CDT)

I understand - the Karabiner 98k has a different look of sights than its predecessors in a series of Karabiner. Corrected. --Pandolfini 02:48, 5 June 2012 (CDT)

Mauser Gewehr 98 - Karabiner 98b

This is Kar 98b, not 98a. 98a looks different. Greg-Z 03:42, 5 June 2012 (CDT)

Thx for this info. This is just an indicative picture for to distinguish the Gewehr and 98 Karabiner K98k--Pandolfini 07:10, 5 June 2012 (CDT)

Judging by the fact that all Tommy's in the movie has smooth barrels, and some have simplified rear sights - is M1928A1s, with removed the Cutts compensators and adding vertical grips; that SMGs look like as early M1921. --Slon95 (talk) 16:03, 23 December 2015 (EST)
