''Militsiya'' personnel also use [[Makarov PM]] pistols, notably seen in hands of ''Starshina'' Nazar Akimovich Barsukov ([[Vladimir Yumatov]]) and Kostya Nilin (Daniil Islamov), and of Egor Chashchin ([[Vladislav Abashin]]) who helps ''Militsiya'' during the climactic battle. PMs are also by some criminals. All PMs in the series turn out to be blank- or gas-firing versions and airsoft replicas of several models. While they are not identified for sure, some guesses are possible.

The Departed (original title Gorod ("The Town")) is a 2017 (filmed 2015) Russian crime TV series. The plot is set in 1961 in a small Soviet town of Strunyovo. The crime rate in the town is very low, unlike the neighboring towns and villages. While investigating a murder, the detective of local Ugolovny Rozysk (criminal investigation department) Rodion Stotskiy finds out the the reason of the serenity in Strunyovo is that the town is the center of the wide crime web, headed by the legendary crime boss Papa ("Dad"). Numerous criminals pose as ordinary, innocent townspersons, but when Stotskiy finally uncovers Papa, he has to withstand in the war against the ruthless and well-organised gang.
In 2018 the series was followed by the sequel Gurzuf (English release title The Departed - Season 2).
The following weapons were used in the television series The Departed (Gorod):
TT-33 pistols are used by Militsiya personnel, notably the detective of Ugolovny Rozysk Sr. Lieutenant Rodion Ilyich Stotskiy (Pyotr Fyodorov), Sgt. Taras Zaytsev (Evgeniy Antropov), nicknamed "Tarasik" (a diminutive from Taras), and the head of local Militsiya Capt. Ivan Zakharovich Liznyuk (Igor Chernevich), and also by numerous criminals. Both pre- and post-1947 versions are seen.
Militsiya personnel also use Makarov PM pistols, notably seen in hands of Starshina Nazar Akimovich Barsukov (Vladimir Yumatov) and Kostya Nilin (Daniil Islamov), and of Egor Chashchin (Vladislav Abashin) who helps Militsiya during the climactic battle. PMs are also by some criminals. All PMs in the series turn out to be blank- or gas-firing versions and airsoft replicas of several models. While they are not identified for sure, some guesses are possible.
A Karabiner 98k rifle is seen among the weapons of Yashka the Gypsy (Vyacheslav Chepurchenko). This rifle is most likely a non-firing Denix replica. During the climactic battle two rifles that also seem to be 98k are seen in Uncle Pasha's car.
Izhmash PSR air rifles are seen in the scene in the shooting gallery, used by the supervisor of the gallery Musa (Fyodor Lavrov), Yegor Chashchin (Vladislav Abashin), Zoya Bashaeva (Olga Demidova), Vovchik Potapov (Denis Bespalyy), Uncle Pasha (Pavel Poymalov), Drozd (Mikhail Gorskiy) and Genych (Vitaliy Moskovoy).
A Sawed-Off Double Barreled Shotgun with exposed hammers is used by a local scum Tolya Karyakin (Igor Bityutskiy). The base gun is very likely a TOZ-B or TOZ-BM.
During the climactic battle, Drozd (Mikhail Gorskiy) carries a pair of F-1 hand grenades. The traces of the pink painting on the fuze indicates that this is an URG practice grenade.
