The following weapons were used in the film To Paris! (Na Parizh) :
Revolvers Nagant M1895 (airsoft) Some Soviet officers and NCOs carry holsters for Nagant M1895 revolvers, but these holsters are possibly empty. The only revolver is seen in holster of Sr. Lt. Kakha Bakhrzadze (Tornike Kvitatiani) but judging by the image on the film poster where Bakhrzadze is shown holding the revolver (he never does it in the movie), the Nagant is an airsoft replica, probably a Gletcher NGT.
