Demons (original title Besy) is a Russian 2014 screen adaptation of the famous novel by Fyodor Dostoevsky. The mini-series is directed by Vladimir Khotinenko.


The following weapons were used in the film Demons (Besy) (2014 TV Series):


M1854 Naval Percussion Cap Pistol

During the duel of Nikolay Stavrogin (Maksim Matveev) and Artemy Gaganov (Pavel Vorozhtsov) both of them use Russian M1854 Naval percussion cap pistols. Only a single pistol is seen at a time so it's most likely that a single movie prop was used.
