How the Steel Was Tempered (Kak zakalyalas stal) is a Soviet 1973 6-part historical mini-series directed by Nikolay Mashchenko and based on the eponymous novel by Nikolai Ostrovsky. This is the third screen adaptation of the original novel, preceded by 1942 and 1956 movies. In 1975 the TV mini series was reworked into two-part theatrical version.
The following weapons were used in the film How the Steel Was Tempered (Kak zakalyalas stal):
Revolvers
Nagant M1895
Nagant M1895 revolvers are widely used throughout the series. They are seen in hands of Pavel Korchagin (Vladimir Konkin), Fyodor Zhukhrai (Konstantin Stepankov), Anton Tokarev (Fyodor Panasenko), Tonya Tumanova (Natalya Sayko), Rita Ustinovich (Antonina Leftiy) and various Red Army commanders, Cheka operatives, officers of Ukrainian National army and counter-revolutionary conspirators. Except for one instance, the revolvers are of anachronistic post-1930 version.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Pistols
Mauser C96 "Bolo"
Mauser C96 "Bolo" pistols are seen in several scenes, used by Fyodor Zhukhrai (Konstantin Stepankov), Vladimir Okunyov (Vladimir Talashko), Anton Tokarev (Fyodor Panasenko), and an unnamed bandit of Bat'ka Orlik's gang. Only a single pistol is seen in a time, so probably there was a single prop, reused throughout the movie. It's possibly the same Mauser "Bolo" that is seen in many other Dovzhenko Film Studio productions, like Chyornyy kapitan, Bumbarash, and Tachanka s yuga.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Luger P08
In one scene a street thug (uncredited) holds a Luger P08 during the assault on Pavel Korchagin and Tonya Tumanova.
Unidentified pistol
The editor-in-chief of Bolshevik newspaper Irina Aleksandrovna (Elza Radzina) owns a pistol. The shape and size of the gun and position of the safety are close to Walther Model 4 but the ejection port is placed on the right side (Model 4 has it on left side). This feature matches Walther Model 6, scaled-up version of Model 4, but Model 6 seems to be too large for the screen pistol (and also is a very scarce gun).
Rifles
Mosin Nagant M1891
Mosin Nagant M1891 rifles, mostly Dragoon model, are used by Ukrainian National army, Red Army, Komsomol activists, conspirators and bandits.
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbine
Out of time Mosin Nagant M1938 Carbines are seen in several scenes, used by cavalrymen of Ukrainian National army and Red Army.
Mosin Nagant "obrez"
Several bandits are seen with Mosin Nagant "obrez" sawed-off rifles.
Machine Guns
Maxim M1910
Maxim M1910 machine guns are seen in several scenes, notably during the defend of the railway construction against bandits when machine guns are served by Anton Tokarev (Fyodor Panasenko), Vladimir Okunyov (Vladimir Talashko) and Pavel Korchagin (Vladimir Konkin) (only a single machine gun is seen in a time so probably it's the same prop reused).
Note: see additional images on talk page.
Trivia
76.2mm M1902 Field Gun
In one scene a Red Army unit is armed with M1902 field guns.
