Battery Number One (theatrical release title Edinichka ("The one" or "Number one"; TV release title Boevaya edinichka ("Combat unit number one")) is a Russian 2015 war drama directed by Kirill Belevich. The plot is set in September 1944 on Soviet-German front in Poland. Soviet artillery battery has a mission to keep position at the important bridge. Arriving at the position, Lt. Egorov organizes an observation post in a destroyed monastery. There he discovers a group of deaf orphans under the care of the surviving nun Eva. Repelling attacks of German SS unit, Soviet soldiers try to hold position and to save children. The situation is complicated, as a group of Polish resistance head to the bridge with a mission to destroy it, but at last Soviet and Polish soldiers unit together on the last stand.
Note: the movie was released in 2015 as theatrical version and in 2017 as four-part TV version under the slightly different title. This page is based on the TV version.
The following weapons were used in the film Battery Number One (Boevaya edinichka):
Revolvers
Nagant M1895
Kolya (Dobrynya Belevich-Obolenskiy), a Russian kid who escaped from a Nazi concentration camp, finds a Nagant M1895 on the body of dead Soviet pilot. In one scene this revolver switches to a blank-firing Blef and then back to a common Nagant. When Kolya's revolver is seen in hands of SS-Obersturmführer Harold (Fitz van Thom), the gun turns out to be a different prop, fitted with a front sight of an original Belgian version of Nagant M1895. A Nagant revolver is also a sidearm of field telephone operator Jr. Sgt. Nadya Tikhomirova (Arina Borisova).
Nagant M1895 "Blef"
Blank-firing "Blef" (VPO-503 "Nagan-S") is used instead of a genuine Nagant M1895 in one scene.
Pistols
TT-33
TT-33 pistols are service sidearms of Soviet officers Lt. Anatoliy Egorov (Ilya Korobko), the commander of the artillery battery, and Lt. Semyon Finogenov (Andrey Merzlikin), the zampolit (deputy for political matters) of the battery. Both pistols are of post-1947 version.
Walther P38
The commander of SS unit SS-Obersturmführer Harold (Fitz van Thom) and the commander of Polish resistance group Porucik (Lt.) Stefan Romanowski (Marcin Stec) carry Walther P38 pistols.
Submachine Guns
PPS-43
Lts. Anatoliy Egorov (Ilya Korobko) and Semyon Finogenov (Andrey Merzlikin) carry PPS-43 submachine guns.
PPSh-41
PPSh-41 submachine guns are weapons of many Soviet soldiers, notably Sr.Sgt. Yakov Sergeevich Gudyma (Sergey Gabrielyan), Sgts. Mikael Gevorkyan (Michael Janibekyan) and Pavel Zhilkin (Aleksandr Vershinin), Pvts. Zinatullin (Iskander Shaykhutdinov), Tyurin (Aleksey Polyakov), Astakhov (Ilya Kiporenko), Anatoliy Ivanov (Azamat Nigmanov) and Kulebyaka (Andrey Fandeev). Nearly all PPSh-41s are fitted with drum magazines.
PPSh-41 (dummy)
In one scene a dummy PPSh-41 is seen in hands of an SS-man.
MP38
MP38 submachine guns are used by German soldiers, notably SS-Rottenführer Gustav (Stanislav Callas) (in several scenes his insignia changes to an SS-Sturmmann), and Polish resistance fighters. Some Soviet soldiers and officers, notably Yefreytor Aleksandr Lyutikov (Mikhail Evlanov), use captured MP38s.
Trivia: nearly all professional actors, seen with MP38s and MP40s, handle their submachine guns inaccurate, gripping the bottom part of the magazine. Contrary, the reenactors in the roles of German soldiers demonstrate proper handling.
MP40
German soldiers also are armed with MP40s.
Sten Mk II
Porucik (Lt.) Stefan Romanowski (Marcin Stec) and one of his men, Franciszek (Rafal Zawierucha) are armed with Sten Mk II submachine guns.
Rifles and Assault Rifles
Sturmgewehr 44
One of the SS-men carries a Sturmgewehr 44.
SVT-40
Several Soviet soldiers and one of the SS-men are armed with SVT-40 rifles. Captured SVT-40s were really used by Wehrmacht and SS troops, designated as Selbstladegewehr 259(r).
Mosin Nagant M1944 Carbine
Soviet artillerymen Anatoliy Ivanov (Azamat Nigmanov), Kats (Andrey Natotsinskiy) and Uruzbaev (Bain Bovaldinov) are armed with Mosin Nagant M1944 Carbines, a brand new gun for September 1944. The folding bayonets are removed from all carbines.
Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine
In the final scene both Ivanov and Uruzbaev are armed with Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbines instead of previously seen M1944s.
Mosin Nagant M1891/30
Full-length Mosin Nagant M1891/30 rifles are briefly seen in hands of Soviet soldiers.
Karabiner 98k
German soldiers and Hilfspolizei personnel widely use Karabiner 98k rifles.
Karabiner 98k (dummy)
Some Karabiner 98k rifles turn out to be dummies.
Karabiner 98k Sniper Rifle
The Polish resistance unit has a single Karabiner 98k with a sniper scope. It is used by Agatha (Elena Glazkova) and then by Franciszek (Rafal Zawierucha). The sniper scope is wrapped for camouflage, so it's hard to identify the exact version, but the general outlook resembles Soviet PSO-1, issued in 1963 for SVD sniper rifle.
Mauser short rifle with trench magazine
An SS-man holds a Mauser short rifle, fitted with a 20- or 25-round trench magazine, designed for a Gewehr 98 during the WW1. The rifle looks very similar to the Karabiner 98k but has grooves on the stock and generally seems longer.
Pattern 1914 Enfield
Polish resistance fighter Ruzek (Ilya Pivnyuk) carries a Pattern 1914 Enfield rifle.
Machine Guns
Degtyaryov DP-27
Soviet artillerymen use two DP-27 machine guns. During the battle they are used by Pvt. Klyuev (Vladislav Dorofeev), Yefreytor Lyutikov (Mikhail Evlanov), Sgt. Gevorkyan (Michael Janibekyan) and Pvt. Tyurin (Aleksey Polyakov).
Degtyaryov DT
A Degtyaryov DT is seen mounted on a Soviet T-34-85 tank.

MG34 Panzerlauf
Two fake German tanks (visually modified T-54) have frontal MG34 Panzerlauf machine guns. These MG34s are hardly complete guns, but possibly genuine barrels, fitted to the tank construction, were used.
Maxim
A graphic image of a Maxim machine gun is seen during the opening credits. The machine gun is probably an M1910 or M1910/30 model but the barrel isn't seen that hampers the identification of the actual version.
