The following weapons were used in the film From Russia with Love:

From Russia With Love (1963)


Walther PPK

James Bond (Sean Connery) carries a Walther PPK in .32 ACP as his personal sidearm. Kerim Bey (Pedro Armendariz), head of MI-6's "Station T" in Turkey, also carries a PPK. Donald "Red" Grant (Robert Shaw) takes Bond's PPK and holds it on him on the Orient Express. Some Soviet agents also use it, perhaps because Makarov PM's weren't available for the film.

MP40

The SPECTRE guards on Blofeld's boat carry MP40s, as do the SPECTRE assassins sent to kill Bond via helicopter or boat. Morzeny (Walter Gotell) leads a boat full of MP40-wielding gunmen.

Armalite AR-7

Bond uses an Armalite AR-7 survival rifle, issued to him by Q, to assassinate Krilencu. Kerim Bey (Pedro Armendariz) eventually does the shooting. Q mistakenly reports the rifle to be .25 caliber, while it actually fires a .22 Long Rifle cartridge.

  • Note: It is quite possible that Q has modified a normal Armalite AR-7 to accept .25 ACP cartridges

Llama XVIII Especial

Grant pulls a Spanish Llama XVIII Especial .25 calibre pistol from an ankle holster and uses it to intimidate Bond on the Orient Express. Rosa Klebb (Lotte Lenya) draws a Llama XVIII pistol with pearl grips during her last-ditch attempt to steal the Lektor from Bond's hotel room. After killing her, Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi) holds Klebb's Llama.

Beretta 418

Tatiana Romanova (Daniela Bianchi) picks up Rosa Klebb's dropped gun, that has now become a .25 ACP Beretta 418 pistol with pearl grips, and uses it to kill Klebb and save Bond.

Beretta 418 (it was 007's main sidearm in the novel version).

Trivia: In the early novels, James Bond's sidearm was a Beretta 418. In the novel "From Russia with Love", it gets caught in Bond's holster, which nearly costs him his life. In the following novel, "Doctor No", M forces Bond to switch to a new weapon: the Walther PPK.'

Tatiana fires the Beretta at Col. Klebb.

Walther LP-53 air pistol

Sean Connery holds a Walther LP-53 air pistol in all promotional shots for the film. It is not a real model firearm, just an air pistol.

When the prop Walther PPK didn't show up for David Hurn's photo shoot of the actors, he provided his own Walther air pistol with the barrel airbrushed out on American posters. The original weapon recently sold in auction for US$439,000.(http://www.thedeadbolt.com/news/109247/james_bond_gun_christies_auction_news.php)

Lee-Enfield No.4 & Energa Rifle Grenade

SPECTRE agents use what appear to be mocked-up or dummy Energa rifle grenades (designated by the British as Grenade, Rifle, A tk, No. 94 Mk. 1, and by the US Military as M28) attached to Lee-Enfield No.4 rifles.

Gun Barrel opening sequence

Again, as in the Dr. No we can see Bond shooting his Walther PPK at someone holding Smith and Wesson revolver, in the barrel of which camera's pretending to be. And again, it's not Sean Connery, it's Bob Simmons, who we seen in this scene. It's need to be noted, that sequence is not 100% identical to the one in Dr. No.

James Bond (Bob Simmons) just shot another enemy with his Walther PPK.
