Teheran 43: Difference between revisions
Teheran 43 is a 1981 USSR-France-Switzerland film by Aleksandr Alov and Vladimir Naumov. It was distributed in Russian under the title Tegeran-43, in English as Teheran 43: Spy Ring and Assassination Attempt (the title of the TV version), in French as Téhéran 43, nid d'espions. The story takes place in Teheran during the Teheran Conference of 1943 when German agents planned to assassinate the Big Three - Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt - and 37 years later in Paris where several heroes and antiheroes meet again.
The following weapons are seen in the movie Teheran 43:
One of the German agents uses a short Nagant M1895 revolver hidden inside a camera while training for the assassination attempt in 1943. This is a custom version with a very short barrel (shorter than the "standard" short Nagant).
Unidentified revolver 1
One of the German agents in Teheran uses an unidentified revolver during the shootout in the antique shop (the other one is armed with a Walther P38).
Unidentified revolver 2
Police inspector Foche (Alain Delon) uses an unidentified snub-nose revolver during the plane-hijacking scene in 1980. It is most likely a Smith & Wesson.
Unidentified revolver 3
Max Richard (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) uses an unidentified revolver during the final scene in Paris in 1980.
Pistols
Luger P08 pistol
Andrei (Igor Kostolevsky) uses a Luger P08 pistol in Teheran. It is also the weapon of several German agents.
Walther P38 pistol
German agents in Teheran use Walther P38 pistols. All of these pistols are nickel-plated, so it is likely that a single P38 was used in the movie.
FN Model 1910 pistol
A photographer in Teheran pulls out an FN Model 1910 pistol when German agents threaten him.
M1911A1 pistol
German agents and Soviet counterintelligence agency members use M1911A1 pistols in Teheran.
TT-33 pistol
The Tokarev TT-33 is seen in the hands of Soviet officers in Teheran.
One of the German agents pulls out an unidentified pocket pistol to threaten the Teheran photographer (who in turn shows the agent his FN Model 1910). The pistol is seen very briefly and is therefore hard to identify.
SMGs
Thompson M1928A1
Thompson M1928A1 SMGs are used by German agents in Teheran. One of the hijackers of the French airplane in 1980 is also armed with a Thompson.
MP40
The boss of the hijackers of the French airplane in 1980 is armed with an MP40 SMG.
M3A1
One of the hijackers of the French airplane in 1980 is armed with an M3A1 SMG.
PPSh-41
Soviet soldiers in Teheran are armed with PPSh-41 SMGs.

Uzi
An Uzi SMG is seen on police inspector Foche's table (Alain Delon) when he is negotiating with the hijackers in 1980.
