Gavroche (Russian Гаврош; Gavrosh) is the 1937 Soviet drama, very loosely based on the novel Les Misérables of Victor Hugo.
The following weapons were used in the film Gavroche:
Pistols
Percussion Cap Pistol
Several characters, including Enjolras (Ivan Novoseltsev), Javert (Andrey Korablyov), Jean Prouvaire (Ivan Bobrov) and Marseille (Vasili Novikov) use Percussion Cap Pistols

Rifles & Muskets
Charleville Musket
Several Republicans (iqluding Gavroche (Nikolay Smorchkov (II)), Jean Prouvaire (Ivan Bobrov), Touchet (Dmitriy Popov), and Madeleine (Nina Zorskaya)) as well as near all Royalist soldiers use Charleville Muskets.
