Shirli-Myrli (Russian: Ширли-мырли) is a 1995 Russian adventure comedy movie. An uncredibly large diamond, found in Siberya, is stolen by a thief Vasiliy Krolikov. The thief is pursued by both police detective Capt. Piskunov and mafia boss Kozyulski. The events are complicated by the fact that Krolikov is one of identical quadruplet brothers who one by one appear in the story.

The following weapons were used in the film Shirli-Myrli:

Pistols

Makarov PM

Mauser C96

Kozyulski (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) briefly holds Mauser C96 pistol.

Pre-War dated Mauser C96 "Broomhandle" Commercial Version - 7.63x25mm Mauser. Note the rear tangent sight; in something of a display of wishful thinking, the C96's sight is adjustable for ranges up to 1000 meters. Later examples had a sight adjustable to a still unrealistic 500 meters. C96 pistols with fixed rear sights are very rare.

M1911A1

Bodyguards (Aleksandr Pankratov-Chyornyy and Mikhail Kokshenov) of the USA ambassador (Leonid Kuravlyov) uses the M1911A1 pistols.

Pre-War Colt M1911A1 Pistol - Commercial Model known as the "Colt Government Model" - .45 ACP. This has a deep Colt factory blued finish, common for commercial variants before and after the war.
