The Witch (Ukrainian: Відьма; Vidma, Russian: Ведьма; Vedma) is the 1990 Soviet Ukrainian language fantasy-mystery-erotic comedy, based on the novel Konotopska vidma (The Witch of Konotop) by Hryhory Kvitka-Osnovyanenko.


The following weapons were used in the film The Witch (Vidma):


IZh-18 (Sawn-Off, mocked as percussion cap pistols)

Sotnik Zabryokha (Bohdan Benyuk) and near all cossacks carry Sawn-Off IZh-18s mocked as percussion cap pistols on the belts. It's can ID by the crude grip and typical typical spur on the trigger guard.

Russian M1848 Infantry soldier's percussion cap pistol - .71 caliber
Izhmekh IZh-17 single barreled Sawed Off shotgun - 16 gauge. The IZh-18 is the same, aside from not having an exposed hammer.

Percussion Shotgun

Several cossacks can be seen armed with the Percussion Shotguns. Due the very large calibre, it's can be genuine percussion cap hunting guns known in old Russia as "shompolka" (slang term from Russian word shompol, which means ramrod). Such guns were produced in late XIX - early XX century and used until mid-XX century, especially in Siberia.
