Most of the men or each of the men?

Could anybody tell me which one is correct " Every of the men in the hall has a rifle." " Most of the men in the hall has a rifle." or " Each of the men in the hall has a rifle."

I'll tell you the wrong one - Every. The other two are correct but the meaning is different.

Only the above sentence is correct. These would also be right:
Every one of the men in the hall has a rifle.
Most of the men in the hall have a rifle.

Cool Breeze is correct. I didn't spot that you had has rather than have.
