Lefaucheux probably actually is Gasser. --Slon95 (talk) 10:40, 27 September 2018 (EDT)

Top-break S&W is too small for .44. The revolver fits into a Nagant holster, that is impossible for .44.

Lefaucheux revolver has the hammer that extends on the top of cylinder, and we see such hammer on the screenshot, while open-top Gassers have less high hammer. Greg-Z (talk) 02:33, 28 September 2018 (EDT)

Maybe, I'm wrong, but I guess, that the Lefaucheux revolver maybe the Lefaucheux Model 1854. This model is the most common Lefaucheux revolver, that appeared in the Soviet media and this movie prop lack of the ejector rod. This damaged movie prop also appeared in the several other Sviet movies. Pyramid Silent (talk) 14:28, 25 October 2018 (EDT)

I guess M1858 to be more accurate guess as on my point of view the position of the hand, holding the revolver, matches angular grip of 1858 better than curved grip of 1854. But possibly I'm wrong. The revolver without rod that is seen in several movies appears in Tsentralnoye Televideniye and Studio Ekran production while this movie is of Dovzhenko Studio. But if we'll find some proof for 1854, I'll correct the identification. Greg-Z (talk) 14:45, 25 October 2018 (EDT)

Single Action Army

The identification of the revolver with white grips as Single Action Army can be proved by the screenshots from another Dovzhenko Film Studio (former Kiev Film Studios) movie Sapogi vsmyatku (1977) where we can see the same prop.

Blistanov (Boris Andreyev) holds a Single Action Army revolver with pearl or ivory grips. It appears to be the same prop that is seen in Trevozhnaya molodost, with same grip and same barrel length.

Note that the revolver lacks the extractor rod.
