Data Tutashkhia (Georgian დათა თუთაშხია, Russian title Berega ("Shores")) is a Soviet Georgian 1977 seven part mini-series directed by Giga Lortkipanidze and Gizo Gabeskiria and based on the novel by Chabua Amirejibi. The titular character, Data Tutashkhia (Otar Megvinetukhutsesi) is a Georgian herdsman, turned abrag (outlaw), in late XIX - early XX century Russian Imperial Transcaucasian region. As a Robin Hood style heroic outlaw, Tutashkhia fights against injustice and wrongdoing but his attempts are mostly in vain. He is hunted by authorities, and one of his most relentless pursuers is Tutashkhia's cousin Mushni Zarandia (Tengiz Archvadze) who makes a career in Russian Corps of Gendarmes.
The following weapons were used in the film Data Tutashkhia:
Nagant M1895 revolvers are widely used by numerous characters, including Data Tutashkhia (Otar Megvinetukhutsesi), his son Gudun Pertia (Temur Tsikoridze), Gendarmes and police officers Mushni Zarandia (Tengiz Archvadze), Nicandro Kilia (Karlo Sakandelidze) and others, outlaws Bodgo Kvaltava (Leo Pilpani), Kaza Chkhetia (Gogi Kharabadze), Mose Zamtaradze (Zurab Laperadze), Anarchist Nikifore Bubuteishvili (Ioseb Gogichaishvili), revolutionary Rodion Andreevich Rogachyov (Grigol Tsitaishvili), and other minor characters. All revolvers are of anachronistic post-1930 version.
Note: as there are too many Nagant-wielding characters, some screenshots are placed on talk page.
In Ep.6 Mushni Zarandia convinces Data Tutashkhia to surrender to authorities. When cousins meet, Tutashkhia hands his Smith & Wesson No.3 Russian Model revolver to Zarandia, calling it a Nagant.
A Mauser C96 is a favoured weapon of Data Tutashkhia (Otar Megvinetukhutsesi). Mauser pistols are also used by other outlaws, including Razha Sarchimelia (Guram Pirtskhalava), Bekar Jeiranishvili (Zurab Kapianidze), Bodgo Kvaltava (Leo Pilpani), and some others, and by Gendarmes and police officers Nicandro Kilia (Karlo Sakandelidze), Shvangiradze (Ruslan Mikaberidze) and others. Most Mausers are of Wartime Commercial model, identified by typical solid safety lever knob.
In Ep.4 Data Tutashkhia visits Tiflis (currently Tbilisi) and gets acquainted with a group of liberal-minded Georgian intelligentsia. During the dinner he shows his FN Model 1922 (anachronistic for about twenty years) to his new friends.
Many Strazhniki (literally "guardians", the rank in rural police in Russian Empire) are armed with Mosin Nagant M1891/30 rifles, standing for original M91s.
In Ep.5 a herdsman Jonjolia (Vladimer Bregvadze) uses a rifle to fire at Data Tutashkhia. This rifle seems to be a French Gras Model 1874 (possibly not an original rifle but a converted shotgun).
In Ep.4 Anachist Nikifore Bubuteishvili (Ioseb Gogichaishvili) carries a pair of hand grenades that are most likely RGD-33s. It's worth noting that modern type of hand grenades didn't exist at all at the time when the story is set; only improvised "hand bombs" were in use.
