==Unknown Smith & Wesson Revolver==	 
On some of the video covers of the film, Fyodor Sokolov (Dmitry Kharatyan) holds a revolver which is similar to both the Smith & Wesson Model 36 Chief's Special and Smith & Wesson Model 37 Airweight. It is likely hand drawn (or, perhaps, salvaged from an unrelated photo) into the picture, so it is likely not meant to be any revolver in particular.
