In several scenes Storyteller (Valeri Nikitenko) carries a [[Blunderbuss|blunderbuss pistol]]. This gun seems to be a mockup rather than a genuine gun, but it is fitted with a percussion cap lock from a real pistol (some elements of the lock allow to guess that it is a converted flintlock). Same prop is also seen among the guns of Robber Woman (Olga Vikland). This gun looks very similar to the blunderbuss pistol, seen in ''[[The Three Fat Men (Tri tolstyaka)#Blunderbuss Pistol|Tri tolstyaka]]'', also a Lenfilm production of same years.

The Snow Queen (Snezhnaya koroleva) is a Soviet 1967 (filmed 1966) screen adaptation of the play by Evgeny Schwartz, in turn based on most famous Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale.


The following weapons were used in the film The Snow Queen (Snezhnaya koroleva):


Pistols

Blunderbuss Pistol

In several scenes Storyteller (Valeri Nikitenko) carries a blunderbuss pistol. This gun seems to be a mockup rather than a genuine gun, but it is fitted with a percussion cap lock from a real pistol (some elements of the lock allow to guess that it is a converted flintlock). Same prop is also seen among the guns of Robber Woman (Olga Vikland). This gun looks very similar to the blunderbuss pistol, seen in Tri tolstyaka, also a Lenfilm production of same years.

A long gun is seen at the background. The shape of stock resembles wheellok long guns. The lock has rather primitive outlook which proves the gun to be a mockup.

Some kind of musket can be seen in the "apartments" of Little Robber Girl. The lock isn't seen, so sure identification isn't possible.

Percussion Musket

When Little Robber Girl appears, returning from hunt, she carries a relatively small musket. The similar looking gun can be seen in the "apartments" of Little Robber Girl. Same looking gun is seen in another Lenfilm productions, Truffaldino iz Bergamo and Tsarevich Prosha, and that movies proves that the gun has percussion cap lock.
