Wedding in Malinovka (Svadba v Malinovke) is a 1967 Soviet action comedy movie directed by Andrei Tutyshkin. The story is set in an Ukrainian village during the Russian Civil war.


The following weapons were used in the film Wedding in Malinovka (Svadba v Malinovke):


Revolvers

Nagant M1895

Nagant M1895 revolvers are used by Red Army commander Nazar Duma (Vladimir Samojlov), his second-in-command Petrya Bessarabian (Nikolay Slichenko), the chief of brigands Gritsian (Grigori Abrikosov) and retired soldier Yashka the Artilleryman (Mikhail Pugovkin).

Nagant M1895 - 7.62x38N. Note the angular front sight which was used from 1930s.
Gritsian with his Nagant revolver. Note the extended position of the ejector rod which can be seen in several movies. This is a common defect of old revolvers.

Petrya holds a Nagant. His revolver also has extended ejector rod (it can be same prop reused or just another sufficiently worn Nagant).
Yashka aims his Nagant (again the gun with extended ejector rod) at Popandopulo who tried to escape in women disguise.

Reichsrevolver M1879

Popandopulo (Mikhail Vodyanoy), the second-in-command of brigands, carries several handguns including Reichsrevolver M1879. This revolver, wiped nearly to white, appears to be the same prop, used in numerous Lenfilm productions, notably Priklucheniya Sherlocka Holmsa i doktora Vatsona.

Smith & Wesson 4th Model

Another handgun used by Popandopulo (Mikhail Vodyanoy) is a compact Smith & Wesson revolver, supposedly a Smith & Wesson 4th Model or its clone of Belgian or Spanish manufacture. This revolver is also seen in other Lenflim productions, notably Priklucheniya Sherlocka Holmsa i Doktora Watsona.

Pistols

Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine

Many of Red Army men and brigands are armed with out of time Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbines. Mostly the carbines lack hooded front sights, probably to make them look more like early versions of Mosin Nagant.

Shotguns

Mosin Nagant/Frolov Bolt Action Shotgun

During the meeting of Yashka the Artilleryman (Mikhail Pugovkin) and Grandfather Nechipor (Yevgeny Lebedev), Yashka originally holds a bolt action shotgun that appears to be a Mosin Nagant/Frolov Shotgun (commonly known as "frolovka"). Later it switches to a different gun that appears to be a "berdanka" shotgun.

Berdan Bolt Action Shotgun

During the meeting of Yashka the Artilleryman (Mikhail Pugovkin) and Grandfather Nechipor (Yevgeny Lebedev) a Berdan bolt-action shotgun (commonly known in Russia as "berdanka") passes from one to another.
