Several mobsters in the Chicago shootout sequence are armed with semi-auto pistols that are seen only at a distance and cannot be identified.

Police and mobsters in the Chicago shootout scene are wielding weapons that look like [[Thompson Submachine Gun#M1921 Thompson|Colt M1921A Thompson]] submachine guns. Actually, they are modified [[PPSh-41 / PPS-43#PPSh-41|PPSh-41]] submachine guns, with removed barrel shrouds, custom stocks and characteristic Thompson foregrips. This is noticeable in the shot of Nitsch holding his "Thompson" - look at the rear of the receiver, stock, the distance between trigger guard and magazine.

== PPSh-41 (Mocked-Up as M1921AC Thompson) ==
Police and mobsters in the Chicago shootout sequence use [[M1921AC Thompson]] submachine guns. They are actually modified [[PPSh-41]] submachine guns, equipped with barrels with fake cooling fins and Cutts compensators, and characteristic Thompson-style furniture. Despite the high similarity, they can still be distinguished from a distance between the magazine and trigger group. This scene was filmed in Poland; the "classic" gangster's "Tommy Gun" couldn't be procured and the Soviet PPSh had to be mocked-up for it.

Déjà Vu (original Polish title Deja vu, Russian title Dezha vyu) is a 1988 Polish-Soviet criminal comedy directed by Juliusz Machulski. The plot is set in 1925. Chicago mobster Mick Nitsch (who is actually Russian-born and named Mikita Nechyporuk) (Vladimir Golovin) becomes a police informant in exchange for his freedom. He flees to Soviet Russia to escape vengeful mobsters whom he betrayed. The mob leaders send their best hitman, Johnny Pollack (Jerzy Stuhr), to the city of Odessa to take him out.


The following weapons were used in the film Déjà Vu (1988):


Handguns

Nagant M1895

When Pollack (Jerzy Stuhr) runs out of weapons, he disarms an actor in the role of a Tsarist Army officer (Oleg Fedulov) during filming of Battleship Potemkin, taking his Nagant M1895 revolver. Nagant revolvers are also seen during the shootout in Nechyporuk's illegal casino. The revolver is an anachronistic post-1930 version.

Submachine Guns

PPSh-41 (Mocked-Up as M1921AC Thompson)

Police and mobsters in the Chicago shootout sequence use M1921AC Thompson submachine guns. They are actually modified PPSh-41 submachine guns, equipped with barrels with fake cooling fins and Cutts compensators, and characteristic Thompson-style furniture. Despite the high similarity, they can still be distinguished from a distance between the magazine and trigger group. This scene was filmed in Poland; the "classic" gangster's "Tommy Gun" couldn't be procured and the Soviet PPSh had to be mocked-up for it.

Other Weapons

Percussion Cap Musket

During the performing of Tosca at the Chicago Opera, soldiers escorting Mario Cavaradossi to the execution carry percussion cap muskets. The guns are most likely modern non-firing replicas, but it's hard to identify the base weapon.

There are two different versions of the musket: note the difference between the one at the far left and the one in center.

The barrel and lock plating resemble the ones seen on an Enfield Pattern 1853 but the lock itself looks different, and the screen guns lack any kind of rear sights.

Shotgun in Case
