Time-Is-Not-Waiting (a direct translation of the original title Vremya-ne-zhdyot) is a Soviet 1975 made for TV two-part adventure drama film directed by Vitaliy Chetverikov and based on Jack London's 1910 novel "Burning Daylight" (the title is the nickname of the main character that is adapted in Russian translation as "Time-Is-Not-Waiting"). Elam Harnish (Juozas Budraitis), a gold prospector during the Alaskan Gold Rush, overcomes hardships and dangers and achieves great wealth. Upon returning to civilization, he turns into a ruthless financier until he fall in love to a humble stenographer Dede Mason (Olga Barnet).
The following weapons were used in the film Time-Is-Not-Waiting (Vremya-ne-zhdyot):
A semi auto pistol, looking anachronistic for 1898, is seen in hands of Madonna (Vaiva Mainelyte). It is seen only partially and may be a Mauser M1934 but this is a vague guess.
Rifles
Winchester Model 1894 Carbine
Winchester Model 1894 carbines are seen in hands of Elam Harnish (Juozas Budraitis) and Jack Westendale (Emmanuil Vitorgan). Probably a single gun is reused in this scenes. The carbine is not a saddle ring version, it has sling swivels.
A Winchester Model 1895 rifle is visually modified by removing the front section of the handguard and adding a fake underbarrel tube magazine so the gun resembles Winchester Model 1892 or Model 1894. Similar props are seen in a number of Mosfilm productions but the usage in Belarusfilm productions seems unique.
