The Last Deed of Kamo (Russian title Posledniy podvig Kamo, Armenian title Kamoyi verjin skhranqe) is a Soviet Armenian 1974 (filmed 1973) adventure movie directed by Erazm Karamyan and Stepan Kevorkov. This is the third and last film of the trilogy about Armenian Bolshevik Simon Ter-Petrosian, better known by his nom de guerre Kamo. It follows Personally Known (Lichno izvesten) (1958) and An Extraordinary Assignment (Chrezvychajnoe poruchenie) (1966). In early 1920s Kamo, impersonating White Army Col. Zalenyan, appears in Persia (nowadays Iran) in order to counter the anti-Soviet activities of Armenian Dashnaks (members of Dashnaktsutiun, Armenian nationalist party that was in exile after the Soviet takeover of indepenent Armenia).
The following weapons were used in the film The Last Deed of Kamo (Posledniy podvig Kamo):
Revolvers
Nagant M1895
Kamo (Gurgen Tonunts) carries a Nagant M1895 revolver during his mission in Persia, acting under the name of Colonel Suren Zalenyan. Nagants are also seen in hands of former White officer Rotmistr (Capt.) Boba Dokutovich (Igor Bezyaev), Armen Adalyan (Ovanes Vanyan), and customs official Akopov (a cameo of film director Stepan Kevorkov) who appears to be the leader of "Dashnaks" secret organisation Mangasarov.
Pistols
Mauser C96
Hemvepet Voskanyan (Vladimir Abadjyan), the commander of Dashnaks militant group in Persia, carries a Mauser C96 pistol. In one scene he hands his pistol to Kamo (Gurgen Tonunts).
Mauser C96 "Bolo"
Voskanyan's second-in-command (uncredited) carries a Mauser C96 "Bolo", identifed by short angular grip with side-to-side lanyard ring.
Rifles
Mosin Nagant M1891 Infantry
Mosin Nagant M1891 rifles are used by Red Army men, Soviet border guards, and Dashanks fighters. Most of these rifles appear to be of Infantry model.
Mosin Nagant carbine
Mosin Nagant carbines are seen on the base of Voskanyan's militant group. Judging by the shape of hooded front sights, they are possibly out of time M1944 carbines with removed folding bayonets. A Mosin Nagant carbine of unclear model is also seen in hands of Armen Adalyan (Ovanes Vanyan).
Machine Guns
Maxim
Several Maxim machine guns are seen on the base of Dashnaks group. One of these Maxims is an M1910/30 of post-1940 version, while another one may be M1910/30 or original M1910.
