Rasputin is a 2011 Franco Russian television movie directed by Josée Dayan. As an itinerant preacher and healer, the Siberian peasant Rasputin travels through the Russian Empire. When even the pious Tsarina Alexandra invited him to court, his work aroused the disfavor of the Russian generals. With the entry into the war in 1914, Rasputin's influence becomes ever more dangerous.


The following weapons were used in the film Rasputin:


Handguns

Mauser C96 M1930

An anachronistic Mauser C96 M1930 pistol is used by Yakov Yurovsky (Andrey Astrakhantsev) to murder Emperor Nicholas II of Russia and his family.

Felix Yusupov (Filipp Yankovsky), Grand Duke Dmitri Pavlovich of Russia (Danila Kozlovsky), Vladimir Purishkevich (Igor Sergeyev), and the Bolshevik firing squad can be seen using post-1930 Nagant M1895 revolvers.

Rifles

Mosin Nagant M91/30

Russian soldiers are mainly armed with Mosin Nagant M91/30 standing in for the Imperial variant. All the fighting scenes are taken from the 2008 Russian movie Admiral (Trivia: The main actor portraying Admiral Alexander Kolchak, Konstantin Khabensky, has also a minor role as Aron Simanovich, Rasputin's personal secretary).

Soviet Mosin Nagant M91/30 - 7.62x54mmR

Some accurate Mosin Nagant M1891 rifles are also used by Russian soldiers.

Machine Guns

Maxim M1910/30

Russian soldiers and an enemy force (Bolsheviks) can be seen firing anachronistic Maxim M1910/30 machine guns.
