Countdown (Lichnyy nomer)

Countdown (Lichnyy nomer) is a 2004 Russian action movie inspired by the dramatic October 2002 theatre hostage crisis in Moscow when a group of terrorists seized a theatre to demand the withdrawal of Russian troops from Chechnya. 
 
In the movie, Maj. Aleksei Smolin (Aleksey Makarov) must uncover a plot led by terrorist leader Saulyus Boykis (Egor Pazenko) who uses the hostage situation in Moscow as a means to obtain a tactical nuclear weapon and detonate it in Rome. 
__TOC__
=Handguns=
==Makarov PM==
The Makarov PM is carried by many characters in the movie, including Russian soldiers, Maj. Aleksei Smolin (Aleksey Makarov: what’s in a name?) and special forces during the rescue operation. 
==Makarov PB==
In a continuity error, Aleksei’s silenced Makarov PM turns to a Makarov PB with integral silencer.
==Anics Skif A-3000 LB==
Several terrorists, most notably their operational leader Saulyus Boykis (Egor Pazenko), can be seen with the Anics Skif A-3000 LB. Although it appears to be fitted with a suppressor, this is actually a fake shroud which is fitted over the extended barrel on the LB variant. The Skif A-3000 is a CO2 powered air pistol possibly standing in for the Walther P99.
==Reck Miami 92F==
Terrorist leader Saulyus carries a nickel Reck Miami 92F during the mission at the theatre. It can easily be distinguished from a Beretta 92FS Inox by the markings on the slide.
A terrorist leader is seen with what looks a Beretta 92F/FS. It is never seen in great detail and it is used during stunts so it is assumed to be the black version of the above gun clearly identified as a Reck Miami 92F.
=Submachine Guns=
==Kedr PP-91==
In one scene, a member of Russian special forces can be seen carrying a Kedr PP-91 as special forces slowly make their way through the hallways and dressing rooms of the theatre.
=Assault Rifles=
==AK-74(M)==
Most characters carry the AK-74 or its modernized version AK-74M at one time or the other. It is seen in the hands of terrorists and Russian forces alike.
 
 
==AKS-74==
Next to the above AK-74/AK-74M, many characters are carrying the AKS-74. Both the wooden as well as the synthetic hand guard versions are seen used by terrorists and Russian forces.
==AKS-74U==
During a scene inside a barrack of the Russian border guards, an instruction poster for the AKS-74U can be seen on a wall in the background. 
==AKM==
For a brief moment during the rescue operation of the theatre, a terrorist can be seen with a well-worn AKM with 30-round bakelite plastic magazine and an AK-47 style muzzle brake. This might be a prop gun.
==AKMS==
In several scenes inside the theatre, terrorists can be seen with the AKMS as they prepare for the imminent assault of security forces. 
==AS Val==
Several members of the special forces raiding the theatre carry the silenced assault rifle AS Val. 
=Machine Guns=
==RPK-74M==
Several Russian soldiers controlling crowds around the besieged theatre can be seen carrying the RPK-74M light machine gun.
=Miscellaneous=
==RPG-7==
A terrorist can be seen carrying an RPG-7 during a scene at the terrorist trainng camp. It is not seen later on in the movie, but strangely enough it features very prominently in behind-the-scenes footage.
