Singer of the Revolution (Pevets revolutsii, Uzbek title Inqilob kuychisi) is the third film of Soviet Uzbek TV series Fiery Roads (Ognennye dorogi) (filmed in 1982, released in 1983). It depicts the wanderings of Hamza Hakimzade Niyazi in Central Asia, Ottoman Empire and British India in 1910s, and his participation in Russian revolution 1917.
Nagant M1895 revolvers are seen in hands of several Kokand townspersons, and by government officers as well as revolutionaries. Both pre- and post-1930 versions are seen.
Pistols
TT-33
When Hamza visits Syria (at that time a part of Ottoman Empire) in Ep.9, an anachronistic TT-33 is carried by an Ottoman policeman. Probably it stands for similar looking FN Model 1903 that was issued to Ottoman police (8,000 ordered in 1908-1914).
Colt M1911A1
When Hamza visits British India in Ep.9, British Capt. Richardson (Timofey Spivak) carries an anachronistic M1911A1 pistol.
Rifles
Mosin Nagant M1891/30
Mosin Nagant M1891/30 rifles, standing for original M91s, are used by Russian police in Kokand and Odessa. In Ep.12 during the revolutionary events of 1917 M91/30 rifles are used by Bolsheviks and government soldiers.
Lee-Enfield Mk.I
In the scene of Hamza's wanderings in British India in Ep.9, British soldiers carry Lee-Enfield Mk.I rifles.
M1917 Enfield
M1917 Enfield (or a mix of M1917s and British P14s) rifles are also seen in hands of British soldiers and Ottoman policemen in Ep.9 (these scenes are set in 1910s, before the appearance of this rifle).
Karabiner 98k
Anachronistic Karabiner 98k rifles are also seen in hands of British soldiers in Ep.9.
Trivia
Holsters
Artillery
In Ep.9 British troops in India use a field gun for execution of local rebels, like it was during the Great Indian Rebellion of 1857. The gun itself looks more like a mockup, made of parts of real guns as well as metall tubes.
