Brother 2 (Brat 2) (2000) is a Russian film. It is the sequel to the groundbreaking 1997 post-Soviet crime film Brother (Brat). The story takes place about a year after the events that occurred in the first film. Having arrived to Moscow, Danila meets up with comrades from his army days and together they participate in the shooting of a telecast devoted to heroes of the Chechen war. Afterward, Danila's friend Konstantin tells him about a problem which has befallen his twin-brother, Dmitry, a hockey player for the American NHL. Konstantin reveals that a dishonest American businessman named Manis has ensnared Dmitry within an exploitative contract deal, which gives Manis all of the money that Dmitry earns from playing hockey. Konstantin says that he will ask his boss, Belkin, who is the head of the bank, to talk with the American. After a meeting with Belkin, Konstantin gets killed by Belkin's excessively zealous assistants, which is due to their misinterpretation of his instructions. (He told them to simply sort out the problem with Konstantin.) In the meantime, Viktor, Danila's elder brother, comes to Moscow. Danila decides to avenge the death of his friend, Konstantin, so he asks Viktor to help him. Carrying out the last will of Konstantin, they travel to America to punish Manis the American, return the stolen money to Konstantin's brother, (who is more scared now than anything) and to restore a 'truth' which Danila believes in, which nobody else seems to understand.

The following guns were used in this film:

Since Danila knows that he has no money to pay for the guns, he decides to rob the gun dealer instead.

After cutting the wood to form the handle and carving out a channel along the top edge of it, Danila then cuts the pipe to the necessary size. Then Danila fashions a small hole in the closed end of the pipe, and then he attaches the pipe to the wood with the wire.

Then Danila attaches to some matches to the small hole on the closed end of the pipe, which serves as the fuse.
