Kotovsky is a Soviet 1942 biopic about the life of Grigory Ivanovich Kotovsky, an outlaw turned revolutionary and one of the prominent commanders of the Red Army during the Russian Civil war. The movie is directed by Aleksandr Faintsimmer.
The following weapons were used in the film Kotovsky:
Revolvers
Smith & Wesson No.3 Russian Model
Grigory Kotovsky (Nikolai Mordvinov) carries a pair of Smith & Wesson No.3 Russian Model revolvers when he leads a gang of outlaws in mid 1900s. An S&W No.3 Russian Model is also seen in hands of a Russian officer in the same scene.
Nagant M1895
Nagant M1895 revolvers are seen in several scenes, used by Grigory Kotovsky (Nikolai Mordvinov) and his outlaws in mid 1900s, and by Red Army commanders and commissars, including Commissar Yefim Kharitonov (Vasili Vanin) and Kotovsky's second-in-command Kabanyuk (Nikolay Kryuchkov).
Pistols
Mauser C96
During the Russian civil war Kotovsky (Nikolai Mordvinov) carries a Mauser C96 pistol in wooden holster.
Ruby-style Pistol
When Kotovsky, being a chief of outlaws in mid 1900s, makes a raid on Karakozen Sr.'s estate, Karakozen Jr. (Mikhail Astangov) fires a pistol that appears to be a member of vast family of Ruby Pistols. Same looking pocket pistol is seen in hands of a White Army officer (Mikhail Grodskiy) in the scene, set in Odessa in 1918.
Unidentified pistol
An unidentified pistol is briefly seen in hands of a Romanian officer during the battle in 1918.

A Mosin Nagant sawn-off "obrez" is carried by one of Kotovsky's orderlies.
