Some minor comments:

  • Demchig's Mauser has a long, 20-round magazine so it can be a Mauser M712 Schnellfeuer or a standard C96 with long magazine. I don't remember if he fired full auto or semi auto.
  • The "Grease Gun" looks more like M3A1 that M3 as crank lever isn't seen.
  • Some M38 Carbines are seen among M91/30 rifles, on rifle_1_8, rifle_2_5 (in hands of a Soviet soldier at the left), and maybe on rifle_1_5 (I'm not sure in this case).
  • A damaged gun in trench on rifle_2_4 resembles Thompson M1928A1 without magazine, handguard and buttstock. I have no idea what Thompson could do in Japanese trench.
  • MG on machine_gun_3_1 is a Type 11 Light Machine Gun. On machine_gun_3_4 there is a Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun (or maybe but less credible Type 3 Heavy Machine Gun). I guess that the same gun is mounted in pillbox on 3_2 and 3_3.
  • Soviet Tu-4 heavy bomber stands for US B-29. It is armed with Nudelman-Rikhter NR-23 guns.

The movie was discussed here and here. Greg-Z (talk) 16:31, 10 April 2018 (EDT)

BTW, the English title is Across the Gobi and the Khingan. Greg-Z (talk) 16:35, 10 April 2018 (EDT)

More comments:
  • Flamethrower 2 - LPO-50 flamethrower
  • Flamethrower 1 looks like a mockup, resembling ROKS
  • Unknown Launcher - 82mm mortar BM-37 of late version.
  • cannons_1_1 - ZPU-4

And more:
  • This screenshot shows some anachronistic vehicles, use at background: several T-55 or T-62 tanks with DShKM machine guns, mounted on turrets, and BRDM-2 (one second from right and another in center). Screenshot machine_gun_1_2 is of same scene, right? Then this machine gun is a DShKM. Greg-Z (talk) 15:56, 11 April 2018 (EDT)
Many thanks for the help! Also, I have some question about the English title: is the preferable to translate official Soviet Russian title, or, the translation of the original Mongolian title a better? Pyramid Silent (talk) 16:52, 11 April 2018 (EDT)
Across the Gobi and the Khingan is seen more often, and used on some English web sites, like alamy.com. Greg-Z (talk) 14:16, 12 April 2018 (EDT)
Many thanks! Now, the page it's seems complite. Pyramid Silent (talk) 14:25, 12 April 2018 (EDT)
