Battleship Potemkin (Bronenosets Potyomkin)
The following guns were used in the film Battleship Potemkin (1925):
Mosin Nagant 1891
Russian sailors on board the Potemkin and the soldiers on shore are armed with Mosin Nagant 1891 rifles. Many of the rifles in this film have bayonets fixed, and indeed rifles in the ship's small arms locker are stored with bayonets fixed.
Steyr Mannlicher M1895
Chief Officer Giliarovsky (Grigori Aleksandrov) uses a Steyr Mannlicher Rifle in a scene. The use of the Mannlicher by the Russian Navy is incorrect, although the film-makers may have used Austro-Hungarian rifles captured during the Great War.
FN Model 1900
One officer defends himself with an FN Model 1900 pistol. He is then quickly overwhelmed and beaten.
