The Flight (Beg)
| ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Flight (Beg) is a 1970 Soviet drama movie directed by Aleksandr Alov and Vladimir Naumov and based on eponymous play by Mikhail Bulgakov. The movie depicts the story of a group of White refugees from the Russian Civil War, eking out an existence in Istanbul in the 1920s.
The following weapons were used in the film The Flight (Beg):
Handguns
Nagant M1895 Revolver
Most White Army officers and Red Army commanders are armed with Russian Nagant M1895 revolvers. General Charnota (Mikhail Ulyanov) holds Nagant revolver during his wanderings in emigration.
Rast-Gasser M1898 Revolver
Austrian Rast-Gasser M1898 revolver is seen in hands of Artur Arturovich (Vladimir Basov). In the final scene General Charnota (Mikhail Ulyanov) also appears with Rast-Gasser instead of his Nagant (this may be a production error). Rast-Gasser revolver can be identified due to its typical side located ramrod.
Mauser C96 Pistol
General Charnota's (Mikhail Ulyanov) personal weapon in the Civil War time is Mauser C96. Typical wooden holsters for Mauser pistols are also carried by several other characters.
FN Model 1910
Some pistols are seen in several episodes, only partially but they (likely the same prop) appear to be hammerless, and due this feature and size they are possibly FN Model 1910.
Rifles
Mosin Nagant Rifles
White Army and Red Army infantry soldiers are armed with Mosin Nagant M1891/30 full-length rifles, often with bayonets.
Several Red Army and White Army cavalrymen are armed with Mosin Nagant M1938 carbines.
Winchester Model 1895
Istanbul policemen are seen with Winchester Model 1895 rifles, most likely Russian contract model in 7.62x54R.
Winchester Model 1866
Another rifle seen in hands of Istanbul policemen looks like Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy".
Machine Guns
Maxim M1910/30
Both White and Red Armies widely use Maxim machine guns on Sokolov wheel mount.
