Tachanka from the South (Tachanka s yuga) is a Soviet 1977 action movie directed by Yevgeni Sherstobitov. The story takes place during the Russian Civil War. Red commissar Bardin and his young assistant Shura are sent to infiltrate a gang and kidnap the chieftain of the gang, Arkadyev.
The following weapons are seen in the movie Tachanka from the South (Tachanka s yuga):
A Nagant M1895 revolver is a personal weapon of Kirill Bardin (Stanislav Korenev). Various minor characters also carry Nagants. All revolvers are of post-1930 model.
One more weapon carried by Arkadyev (Dmitri Mirgorodsky) is an M1911A1 pistol. In the final scene Shura (Aleksandr Strigalyov) uses this pistol. The pistol is correctly called "Colt".
In one scene an old villager (Ivan Matveev) holds a Single Barreled Shotgun with external hammer. It appears to be an IZh-K in 16 or 20 gauge, one of the most common single barreled shotguns in USSR.
Degtyaryov DP-27 (visually modified to resemble Lewis)
A Degtyaryov DP-27, visually modified to resemble Lewis, is used by Bardin (Stanislav Korenev) in the final scene. It is fitted with barrel shroud of very unusual shape, fake magazine in Lewis style and pistol grip.
In several scenes "pineapple"-style hand grenades are seen. They resemble Soviet F-1 hand grenades but in one scene Latin "V" and "P" letters are clearly seen on a grenade. Such inscriptions are typical for French F1 hand grenades. The general outlook also better matches French F1 of WW1 pattern (Mle 1915). So the screen used grenades are most likely French F1s equipped with Soviet Koveshnikov fuze. Such combinations were really used in Red Army in 1920s.
In the final scene Bardin (Stanislav Korenev) also uses stick hand grenades. They are seen very briefly. Supposedly it is a training version of RGD-33 stick grenade.
