Brother (Brat) (1997) is a Russian film. The story revolves around a young Russian man named Danila (Sergei Bodrov), who goes to join his older brother in St. Petersburg. But Danila's older sibling is a gangster and cold blooded killer. Danila is asked to kill someone, and soon learns that he finds killing easier than living. (People who don't speak Russian may find it ironic and humorous that the Russian word for 'brother' is 'brat', so any of us who have brothers will find humor in that translation.)

The following weapons are featured in the film Brother:


Hand-made Revolver

Seen in the film is a locally produced .22 LR revolver (which apparently has no official name). These cheap revolvers were produced in the 1990s by one of the gangs which operated out of the Moscow Suburbs. Many people wrongly identify it as a Nagant revolver.

This was Danila's first gun in the movie. He acquired it when he knocked out a mobster who was trying to get merchandises from Hoffman. During the film Danila used this revolver time and again. At first it has frightened two impudent Caucasians in a tram. Then has killed the Chechen gangster and has hit one of Round's henchmen nicknamed Shisha. With this revolver he was waiting in ambush in apartment of the Round's debtor. Also Danila has killed the hitman nicknamed Mole from this revolver.
