From reading all kinds of sources i now have a good grasp of the weapons used in the cuban revolution. as follows:
Guns definitely used by the revolutionaries:
scoped hunting rifles
Johnson Automatic Rifles
Thompson Submachineguns
Madsen machine guns
one or two 50 calibers
revolvers and pistols, likely some colt 45's
Guns used by Batista's regime(some of these not 100% sure about. they were supplied mostly with american stuff though):
M1 Garand(rebels often captured them)
browning 30 caliber(unsure, but likely)
M60 light machinegun(possible)
50 caliber machinegun
thompson submachineguns(very likely)
m3 grease guns(possible)
I remember someone posted on these forums a month or two ago about making a conversion to the cuban revolution, so this post is mostly for that guy, or anyone else with interest in making a mod about cuba. if anyone needs any links to pics, especially for the madsen and the johnson, just lemme know.
