Adventures of Kalle the Detective (a direct translation of original Russian title Priklyucheniya Kalle-syschika, Lithuanian title Seklio Kalio nuotykiai) is a Soviet Lithuanian 1978 (filmed 1976) made for TV adventure family movie, directed by Arunas Zebriunas and based on a series of stories by Astrid Lindgren. Kalle Blomkvist is a Swedish boy, fascinated with detective work. Together with his friends Kalle manages to solve a real crime.


The following weapons were used in the film Adventures of Kalle the Detective (Priklyucheniya Kalle-syschika):


Nagant M1895 (Mocked Up as Colt 1851 Navy)

The Nagant M1895 revolvers, modified to resemble the old cap and ball Colt revolvers, especially the long-barrel version of the Colt 1851 Navy (archaism for the late 1940s - early 50s, when the action takes place), are handguns of criminals Arthur Berg alias "Pale" (Jonas Aleksa) and Krook alias "Nasty" (Donatas Katkus); the latter carries two revolvers in shoulder holsters. Revolvers are fitted with long faceted barrels and fake loading levers. Three props were used in the movie, two with Colt-style wide grips and the third one with original Nagant grip with lanyard ring. These revolvers look similar to the guns, used in Smoke and Shorty, filmed by same studio.
