Ash (Pepel) is a Russian 2013 TV series. In 1938 a Red Army Capt. Igor Anatolyevich Petrov (Vladimir Mashkov) finds himself under the threat of arrest. While riding a train, he is accidentally involved in the criminal shootout and finds it a chance to change his identity, taking the documents from wounded criminal Arseniy Nikolaevich Skvortsov aka Senya-Pepel ("Ash") (Yevgeny Mironov) and leaving the latter with Petrov's papers. Both men have to start their lives completely anew. During the following ten years, one will become a brave commander and war hero, and the other - a ruthless gang leader. But one day they will have to meet again...
Note: since each of the main characters participates in the plot under two names, their names are used within quotation marks ("Petrov" and "Pepel") when it comes to fake identities.
The following weapons were used in the television series Ash (Pepel):
Nagant M1895 revolvers are seen in hands of NKVD personnel and criminals. Revolvers that are identified as rubber- or blank-firing versions of Nagant are listed in separate entries below.
During the robbery of jewelry workshop, seasoned criminal Vitya-Garderob ("Wardrobe") (Andrey Smolyakov) uses a "Naganych" R-1, gas- and rubber-firing revolver based on Nagant M1895 (the name "Naganych" is modeled after the patronymic of the Russian language in the meaning "Son of Nagant"). This civilian version, converted from live Nagant revolvers, can be identified by a distinctive round hole in the frame between the barrel and the cylinder.
During the crucial encounter in the train in the first episode when two main characters exchange their identities, criminal safecracker Arseniy Skvortsov aka Senya-Pepel (Yevgeny Mironov) uses a "Blef" (VPO-503 "Nagan-S"), blank-firing version of Nagant M1895. When he is wounded, Capt. Igor Petrov (Vladimir Mashkov) takes the revolver. "Blef" is identified by a horisontal groove on the frame below the front part of the cylinder.
In a wartime scene a German officer in charge of the firing squad holds a pistol that resembles some version of Colt M1911. The pistol is seen in distance and briefly, and the positive identification is impossible.
PPSh-41 with both drum and stick magazines are widely used in the scenes set during and after the war. They are notably used by "Captain Petrov" (Yevgeny Mironov), "Pepel" (Vladimir Mashkov), his companion Diego the Catalan (Aleksandr Dyachenko), and Special Department officer Maj. Sergey Leonidovich Yeryomenko (Sergey Chonishvili).
Several criminals are armed with PPS-43 submachine guns in wartime episodes, when "Pepel"'s gang became partisans, and during the shootout of the gold mine in the post-war episode.
Two Degtyaryov DT machine guns are mounted in a BA-6 armoured car. The BA-6 is a modern replica (see Trivia section) but one of the machine guns is a genuine and even firing weapon.
In a wartime episode a 3.7 cm Pak 35/36 anti-tank gun is seen on the battlefield. A Pak 35/36 is also seen in the location of "Colonel Petrov"'s unit in the episode, set in 1948.
In one episode, set after the war, a BA-6 armoured car of "Petrov"'s unit is used to transport gold and is ambushed by "Pepel"'s gang. The BA-6 is a modern replica, but it is armed with at least one genuine DT machine gun.
