The following weapons were used in the film Fiery Bridge (Ognennyy most):
Nagant M1895 revolvers are used by both Reds, notably Red Guards commander Lavrentiy Khomutov (Yuriy Kayurov) and Irina Dubravina (Alla Chernova), and Whites, notably Poruchik Gennadiy Dubravin (Aleksandr Kaidanovsky). All revolvers are of anachronistic post-1930 version.
In the second episode, set in 1927, an FN Model 1900 pistol, taken from arrested Gennadiy Dubravin, is seen in hands of OGPU high rank official Stange (Antanas Gabrenas).
Mauser C96 pistols are used by several Red Guards during the revolutionary events in Moscow in October 1917. Also Red Army and Ukrainian national army (Haidamaks) personnel carry Mauser C96 pistols during the battle in 1918.
Mosin Nagant M1891/30 rifles, standing for original M91s, are used by Red Guards and Yunkers (cadets) in October 1917, and by Red Army soldiers and Ukrainian Haidamaks in 1918.
During the battle in Winter 1918 Red Army division under the command of Khomutov uses an armoured train. The armoured train is a full size replica, made for the movie Red Square (Krasnaya ploshchad) (1970) and later appearing in a number of Soviet movies, including Beg (1970), I na Tikhom Okeane... (1974), Fiery Childhood (Ognennoye detstvo) (1976), Dni Turbinykh (1976), Ognennyy most (1976), Poedinok v tayge (1978), Dachnaya poezdka serzhanta Tsybuli (1979), and Lyudmila (1982). It consists of a genuine locomotive and two armoured railcars, one of OB-3 pattern (WW2 era) with a gun turret and another one of "2nd Siberian" pattern (Russian Civil war era) with a gun in an open shield mount. Both main guns are 76.2mm ZiS-3 with removed muzzle brakes (to make them look more like early 20th century models), also the train is armed with several Maxim machine guns.
