Dead Man's Bluff (original title Zhmurki; also released in English as Blind Man's Bluff) is a Russian 2005 crime black comedy directed by Aleksey Balabanov. It depicts a story of two young but ruthless and ambitious criminals in Russian provincial town in 1990s.
The following weapons were used in the film Dead Man's Bluff (Zhmurki):
Sergey's (Aleksey Panin) personal weapon is a nickel plated M1911-style pistol that appears to be a blank firing Umarex Colt Government 1911 A1. Simon (Dmitriy Dyuzhev) carries a similar looking blued pistol. In the climactic scene a rival criminal Baklazhan ("Eggplant") (Grigoriy Siyatvinda) manages to get Sergey's pistol.
Simon (Dmitriy Dyuzhev) also carries two hidden Walther PP pistols, fitted with drawer slide quick-draw devices, similar to the one in Taxi Driver. The pistols act strangely: each time Simon fires, the slides stop in rear position as if the pistols are loaded with only single cartridge, and Simon has to move slides manually.
Some characters carry Beretta 92-style pistols that are characterised with such features as round trigger guard, long hammer spur and the lack of slide mounted safety.
In the climactic scene Sergey (Aleksey Panin) uses a snub nose revolver to make captured rival criminals Koron (Sergey Makovetskiy) and Bala (Anatoliy Zhuravlyov) to play Russian roulette that Sergey calls a "zhmurki" (blind man's bluff game; hense the title of the movie). The revolver appears to be a blank firing Arminius HW-37.
A Saiga-M, semi auto carbine based on AKM, is used by Baklazhan (Grigoriy Siyatvinda) during the ambush on Sergey and Simon. In the scene in Baklazhan's room Sergey (Aleksey Panin) takes the gun and uses it against rival criminals.
When Koron (Sergey Makovetskiy) examines a bag of weapons, delivered by Baklazhan, he finds an RPG-26. Baklazhan incorrectly calles it "Mukha" (the name of RPG-18).
