For an infantryman with standard issue equipment, they would generally carry a 9mm Luger and a Mauser rifle (Karabiner 98k), a bolt action rifle that held 5 cartridges at a time, while the Luger, I am not sure but most 9mm vary from 5 to 30 cartridges.

Another gun that was used was the MP40 submachine gun, along with the MP43.


The MG42 was also used as a light weight machine gun.


The Germans were also issued Mauser bayonets and Steilhandgrenates, or German grenades.
