__TOC__
= Handguns =
== Nagant M1895 ==
Nagant M1895 revolvers are used by various Reds and Whites, including Aleksandr Parkhomenko (Aleksandr Khvylya) who often carries a Nagant as a backup weapon for his main sidearm, a Mauser C96.
== Mauser C96 ==
Aleksandr Parkhomenko (Aleksandr Khvylya), Vasya Gaivoron (Pyotr Aleynikov), Nestor Makhno (Boris Chirkov) and some other characters carry Mauser C96 pistols. Both original C96 and anachronistic M1930 version, identified by stepped barrel and the position of lanyard ring, can be seen.
== Roth-Steyr M1907 ==
In the opening scene Vasya Gaivoron (Pyotr Aleynikov) carries a Roth-Steyr M1907 pistol.
== M1911 ==
Cherednyak (Ivan Bobrov), Makhno's treasurer, carries an M1911 pistol.
== Luger P08 ==

= Rifles =
== Mosin Nagant M1891 ==
Both Red and White Army soldiers carry original Mosin Nagant M1891 rifles, generally fitted with bayonets. Infantry and Dragoon versions of the rifle can be seen. M1891 rifles, fitted with sword bayonets, are used by Imperial German infantry instead of their service Mauser Gewehr 98 rifles (Note: While this substitution was supposedly caused by the lack of Mausers, it has some historical truth as numerous captured Russian rifles were converted for using German 7.92 mm cartridges and fitted with German-style sword bayonets. In such configuration former M91s found some service.).
== Mosin Nagant M1907 Carbine ==
Some characters, including Vasya Gaivoron (Pyotr Aleynikov) and Terenty Lamychev (Stepan Kayukov) carry Mosin Nagant M1907 Carbines.
