Sign of Disaster (Znak bedy; also released in English as Ill Omen) is a 1987 (filmed 1986) Soviet two-part made for TV war drama based on the same title novel by Vasil Bykov and directed by Mikhail Ptashuk. The plot depicts the tragedy of middle-aged peasant couple Petrok (Gennadiy Garbuk) and Stepanida (Nina Ruslanova) in Nazi-occupied Belorussia.
The following weapons were used in the film Sign of Disaster (Znak bedy):
An unnamed Hilfspolizei (Leonid Yanovsky) holds a Nagant M1895 revolver when he threatens Petrok. In a flashback scene, set in late 1920s, the village Militsioner Vasiliy Goncharik (Aleksandr Timoshkin) carries a Nagant.
Luger P08
German Hauptmann (Capt.) (Aleksey Maslov) and Feldwebel (NCO) (Kaspars Puce) carry Luger P08 pistols.
Rifles
Karabiner 98k
German soldiers and Hilfspolizei, including Guzh (Vladimir Ilyin (II)), Potap Kolondyonok (Yevgeny Platokhin), and Antos Nedoseka (Aleksey Zaytsev), carry Karabiner 98k rifles.
Mosin Nagant "obrez"
In a flashback scene, set in late 1920s, Guzh (Vladimir Ilyin (II)) carries a Mosin Nagant "obrez" sawed-off rifle.
Trivia
In the final scene Stepanida gets and hides an unexploded aerial bomb. This is a Soviet post-war OFAB-100-120, identified by the ring tail fin and the blunt nose. The marking "W-25L" on the body is probably intended to make it look like a German bomb.
