The Seventh Companion (Sedmoy sputnik) is a 1968 (filmed 1967) Soviet B&W drama directed by Grigoriy Aronov and Aleksey German and based on the story by Boris Lavrenev (this is the third screen adaptation of the original story after 1928 and 1962 versions). The plot depicts the tragical story of Evgeniy Pavlovich Adamov (Andrei Popov), former General and Professor of the military law academy of the Russian Army, during the Russian Civil War.
Note: the English release title The Seventh Companion doesn't match the meaning of the Russian title. The Seventh Satellite would be more correct as Adamov calls himself a satellite of the revolution.
The following weapons were used in the film The Seventh Companion (Sedmoy sputnik):
The Commissar of the revolutionary court martial unit Mikhail Savelyevich Zykov (Pyotr Chernov) carries an Astra 900 pistol. This pistol, anachronistic for the Russian Civil War (production of Astra 900 started in 1927-1928), can be seen in a number of Lenfilm productions where it is used as a stand-in for more common Mauser C96.

The scene is a footage from 1927 film Oktyabr.Error creating thumbnail: File missingJapanese (or possibly Chinese, as the uniform is not exactly Japanese) soldiers with rifles. The rifle at the right is definitly an Arisaka Type 30 or Type 38 while other rifles hardly can be identified.Error creating thumbnail: File missingSoldiers of the White Army (they are described as such but in reality this may be a photo of Russian Imperial troops) with Mosin Nagant rifles.
