22 Minutes (22 minuty) is a 2014 Russian action movie directed by Vasily Serikov. The story is loosely based on events of May 2010 in the Gulf of Aden when Somali Pirates hijacked the Russian tanker Moscow University and its rescue by the the Russian Navy destroyer Marshal Shaposhnikov. In the film, the hijacked vessel is the liquefied gas tanker Yamal, and the destroyer is named Admiral Krylov.
The following weapons were used in the film 22 Minutes (22 minuty):
Amin's second-in-command carries the M1928A1 Thompson SMG, fitted with a custom folding stock. Sanya Yezhov (Makar Zaporozhskiy) manages to disarm the pirate and uses the SMG himself.
Rifles
Simonov SKS
Several pirates carry the SKS Rifle with aftermarket detachable magazines (probably 20-rounders), muzzle brakes, and new sights.
In several scenes, Russian Marines carry AKMS assault rifles. Some of them are fitted with fake AK-74-style muzzle brakes.
AKMSL
During the night raid, several Marines carry AKMSL assault rifles. The AKMSL is a version of the AKMS fitted with an elongated slotted flash suppressor and NSP-3 night scope rail. The screen guns lack the NSP-3 but the shape and size of the flash suppressor allows to differ this version from a regular AKMS.
AK-74
AK-74 assault rifles are also seen in the hands of the pirates.
The AKS-74U is seen in hands of several Marines, including Starshy Praporshchik (senior warrant officer) Mogila (Vladislav Demin).
Colt M16A2
One of the pirates is armed with the M16A2 assault rifle. As genuine M16s are rarely seen in Russian movies, this rifle is probably an airsoft gun or some other kind of non-firing replica.
Machine Guns and Autocannons
Kalashnikov RPK-74
One of the pirates is armed with the RPK-74 machine gun.
The pirates mount several DShKM heavy machine guns on the hijacked Yamal.

RPG-7
One of the pirates is armed with an RPG-7 rocket launcher.
