Talk:The Rifleman of the Voroshilov Regiment

Different non-lethal weapon

These guns are named in a film gas gun. I don't know what it are actually. A gas gun, a traumatic weapons or even toys. Any ideas, comrades?Bednardos 14:27, 30 November 2011

Gas-powered Airsoft guns, probably. Evil Tim 14:40, 30 November 2011 (CST)

Or maybe just a CO2 powered pellet or BB gun. --Funkychinaman 14:44, 30 November 2011 (CST)

The last image looks very much like an airsoft revolver.Evil Tim 14:46, 30 November 2011 (CST)

That's not an airsoft revolver. it does not have the inner barrel. I've seen those before. they are CO2 powered BB guns. MoviePropMaster2008 16:23, 30 November 2011 (CST)

Or it could be a blank-firing replica, which can shoot a variety of non-lethal loads such as flash, pepper, CN and CS (hence the "gas" in the title). They're fairly popular in ex-Commie Block, mostly for self defense use, as well as criminal activities. --IHateBourbon 12:51, 1 December 2011 (CST)

IHateBourbon is right: in Russia, газовый пистолет\револьвер - "gas pistol" or "revolver" means one thing and one thing ONLY: a handgun firing irritant gas from gas cartridges through its barrel. It is designed like a live-firing handgun, has baffles in the barrel and weak spots to prevent the conversion for live rounds. These were quite popular in Russia in the 90s, and almost fell out of use later. You can even check the definition with federal law 150-FZ "About firearms".

Great work on the page

But I did have to fix a bunch of the English. Hope you don't mind. :) MoviePropMaster2008 16:29, 30 November 2011 (CST)
