It depends somewhat on your definition of "new", but basic infantry weaponry in World War II for the United States Army used only two weapons from Wordl War I in the regular footsoldiers equipment: The M1911A1 Colt automatic pistol, and the Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR). The 1903, and 03A3 Springfields of World War I were also used, but as sniper weapons, not as main infantry shoulder rifles. The basic shoulder rifle was the M1 Garand (1936), the secondary support shoulder weapon was the M1 Carbine, the submachine guns were the Thompson submachinegun, which missed, literally by days, being used in World War 1, and the M3 "grease gun" submachine gun. The bazooka was also a new weapon in WW II.
