The owner of the private detective agency Ilya Mirsky (nicknamed "Gladiator for Hire" for his habit of taking the hard cases) receives a tempting offer from the wife of a media mogul, Yeva Lukachyova (who uses the alias Yeva Adamovich) - he should not allow the leak of compromising information, which would deprive Yeva of her multimillion-dollar inheritance. Deciding to take the case, Ilya could have hardly imagined that he would have to face a whole series of sophisticated murders, and that his own life may become endangered. |

Gladiator for Rent (Gladiator po naymu; Russian: Гладиатор по найму) is a 1993 Belarusian-Ukrainian detective/crime drama based on the novel "The Case of the Velvet Claws" by Erle Stanley Gardner. The owner of the private detective agency Ilya Mirsky (nicknamed "Gladiator for Hire" for his habit of taking the hard cases) receives a tempting offer from the wife of a media mogul, Yeva Lukachyova (who uses the alias Yeva Adamovich) - he should not allow the leak of compromising information, which would deprive Yeva of her multimillion-dollar inheritance. Deciding to take the case, Ilya could have hardly imagined that he would have to face a whole series of sophisticated murders, and that his own life may become endangered.
The following weapons were used in the film Gladiator for Rent (Gladiator po naymu):
Handguns
Short-Barreled Nagant M1895
Ilya Mirsky (Aleksandr Peskov) carries a short-barreled Nagant M1895 Revolver as his pocket sidearm.
P1001
Guriy Lukachyov (Nikolai Yeryomenko, Sr.) uses a P1001, an East German-produced copy of the Walther PP. The same gun is subsequently used by Yeva (Marina Mogilevskaya); and later her nephew, Stas Kostylev (Sergey Gazarov).
Suppressed Walther P38
What appears to be a suppressed Walther P38 is used by Ilya Mirsky in the final scene.
Assault Rifles
AKS-74U
The AKS-74U is used by police officers and several guards.
Epstein's Gun Shop
One scene in the film that requires its own section is Epstein's Gun Shop. Several different types of weapons could be seen here. Most of them are shown only from a distance and are a little blurry, but, nevertheless, could be easily identified. Note: guns which were already on the page are listed here again to save space.
P1001
Several P1001 pistols are seen in Epstein's Gun Shop (Guriy's own P1001 pistol was bought in this shop).
Tokarev TT-33
Several TT-33s are seen in Epstein's Gun Shop.
Luger P08
A Luger P08 also appears as well.
1914 Mauser Pocket Pistol
What appears to be a nickel-plated 1914 Mauser Pocket Pistol is seen in Epstein's Gun Shop.
FN Model 1905
Four pocket pistols (two of which are nickel-plated) are also seen. These appears to be the FN Model 1905 or some of its numerous clones of Spanish Eibar origin.
Suppressed Walther P38
What appears to be a suppressed Walther P38 is also seen. A suppressed weapon being sold over the counter at an official gun shop is purely artistic license. It is probably the same prop which is seen later in the hands of Mirsky.
Sturmgewehr 44 (Mocked up as a M16)
Several StG 44 rifles, mocked up as M16s, appear in Epstein's Gun Shop. Note that this is Belarusfilm's fake "M16", which differs from Mosfilm's "M16s".
Custom Compact Sturmgewehr 44
A custom compact StG 44 is also seen in the gun shop. This is the exact same modified Sturmgewehr 44 that was previously used in the 1990 film Road Hawks (Stervyatniki na dorogakh).
