Teheran 43

Teheran 43 is a 1981 USSR-France-Switzerland film by Aleksandr Alov and Vladimir Naumov. It was distributed in Russian under the title Tegeran-43, in English as Teheran 43: Spy Ring and Assassination Attempt (the title of the TV version), in French as Téhéran 43, nid d'espions. The story takes place in Teheran during the Teheran Conference of 1943 when German agents planned to assassinate the Big Three - Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt - and 37 years later in Paris where several heroes and antiheroes meet again.
The following weapons are seen in the movie Teheran 43:
__TOC__
= Revolvers =
== Nagant M1895 short-barreled revolver ==
One of the German agents (Georges Géret) uses a short Nagant M1895 revolver hidden inside a camera while training for the assassination attempt in 1943. This is a custom version with a very short barrel (shorter than the "standard" short Nagant). Snub nose Nagant is also used by Max Richard (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) during the final scene in Paris in 1980.
== Nagant M1895 ==
One of the German agents in Teheran uses a standard Nagant M1895 revolver during the shootout in the antique shop (the other one is armed with a Walther P38).
== Colt Detective Special ==
Police inspector Foche (Alain Delon) uses a Colt Detective Special revolver during the plane-hijacking scene in 1980.
= Pistols =
== Luger P08 ==
Andrei (Igor Kostolevsky) uses a Luger P08 pistol in Teheran. It is also the weapon of several German agents.
== Walther P38 ==
German agents in Teheran use Walther P38 pistols. All of these pistols are nickel-plated, so it is likely that a single P38 was used in the movie. A P38 is also carried by Max Richard (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) during the final scene in Paris in 1980. 
== M1911A1 ==
German agents and Soviet counterintelligence agency members use M1911A1 pistols in Teheran.

Tokarev TT-33 pistols are seen in the hands of Soviet officers in Teheran.

Max Richard's (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) personal weapon while hiding in Paris in 1980 is a Browning Hi-Power pistol.
== Beretta M1934 ==
One of the German agents (Georges Géret) pulls out a pistol to threaten the Teheran photographer (who in turn shows the agent his FN Model 1910). The pistol is seen briefly but can be supposedly identified as a Beretta M1934.
== FN Model 1910 ==
Mustafa (Arutyun Akopyan), a photographer in Teheran, pulls out an FN Model 1910 pistol when German agents threaten him.
