= Rifles =
== Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine ==
Most rifles in the movie are anachronistic [[Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine]]s. They are seen in hands of Red Army soldiers, White Army soldiers, and outlaws.

== Custom Mosin Nagant ==
Various characters use Mosin Nagant short rifles that appear to be custom shortened [[Mosin Nagant M1891|M1891]]s. Visually they resemble M1907 Carbines. The same props are seen in other Gorky Film Studio productions, like ''[[Do Not Set Traps for Leshiy... (Ne stavte Leshemu kapkany...)#Custom Mosin Nagant|Ne stavte Leshemu kapkany...]]''.

[[Image:BGN-Mosin-11.jpg|thumb|600px|none|White Army cavalrymen are armed with short rifles.]]

In the opening scene, Sasha Andronov ([[Yuriy Grigorev]]) carries a rifle that later switches to a [[Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine]]. It appears to be a M91/30 rifle that has a broken or sawed-off muzzle part of the barrel. The same or at least a very similar prop is seen in ''[[Lost Expedition (Propavshaya ekspeditsiya), The#Custom Mosin Nagant Rifles|Propavshaya ekspeditsiya]]'', filmed by the same studio five years before.

== Mosin Nagant M1891/30 Rifle ==
Full-length [[Mosin Nagant M1891/30]] rifles are briefly seen in several scenes.

== Mosin Nagant Sawn-off Rifle ("Obrez") ==
Several men of Mezentsev's gang carry [[Mosin Nagant sawn-off "obrez"]] rifles.

= Machine Guns =
==Lewis Gun==
A [[Lewis Gun]] is captured from Mezentsev's gang by Sasha Andronov ([[Yuriy Grigorev]]). It is an original Lewis, but this particular gun has a makeshift barrel cover and lacks a bipod but is fitted with a pivot. According to these features, it can be assumed that this machine gun is an [[Lewis_Gun#Aircraft_Mounted|aircraft mounted version of Lewis]], visually modified to resemble a standard infantry version. Another guess is that it is simply a damaged piece that was very roughly repaired by the production company.
