Stechkin APS

A Stechkin APS pistol was used as the main weapon of Volkov Captain Alexi (Levan Uchaneishvili) (who was turned into a cyborg by the energy alien). The pistol would later fall into the hands of Richie after he finished off the cyborg.

Stechkin APS 9mm Makarov

AKM

Used by the main characters in the film, noteably in the hands of Steve Baker (William Baldwin), Hiko (Cliff Curtis) and Richie (Sherman Augustus) . AKM rifles were also seen in large quantities in the Volkov's small arms locker.

AKM assault rifle - 7.62x39mm

Fake BG-15 Grenade Launcher

The BG-15 grenade launcher was a front loading 40mm launcher introduced during the Afghan-Russo War. It is identifiable by a thumbhole in the short pistol grip. It was later supplanted by the improved GP-30 & GP-25 launchers. The one in the film has a thumbhole in the pistolgrip, however it seems like a breech-loading launcher which would mean it is not a Russian BG-15.

AKMS

Used by the main characters in the film. Also seen in the Volkov's small arms locker.

AKMS, stamped steel receiver w/ slant muzzle brake and under-folding stock - 7.62x39mm

Norinco Type 56

In the Volkov's small arms locker, a number of Norinco Type 56 rifles (both the folding bayonet variant and the variants without the folding bayonet) can be seen on the gun racks next to the AKM rifles - which is odd to see because the Volkov is a Russian naval vessel and the Norinco Type 56 is a Chinese rifle. It is quite possible that the Type 56 rifles were used as a "stand-in" for the Russian AKM rifle.

Norinco Type 56 (fixed stock variant) with under-folding bayonet ("pig sticker") - 7.62x39mm

Norinco Type 56 (fixed stock variant) - 7.62x39mm
