Catch the Wind (Ishchi vetra...) is a 1979 historical adventure movie directed by Vladimir Lyubomudrov. The story is set during the Russian Civil war in Ural steppe, on a stud-farm where Sergey Sergeyevich Uvarov (Pavel Kadochnikov) breeds valuable horses. White officer Viktor Beloglazov (Lev Prygunov) leaves the army and visits the farm to marry Uvarov's daughter Natasha (Elena Proklova). Meanwhile wounded Red Army commissar Pavel (Konstantin Grigoryev) seeks refuge on the same farm. White Cossacks appear, and their commander (Aleksandr Porokhovshchikov) orders to take the tribal herd. Viktor and Pavel team up and, accompanied by a brigand Vas'ka (Mikhail Kononov), follow Cossacks and try to get horses back.
The following weapons were used in the film Catch the Wind (Ishchi vetra...):
One of the Cossacks carries a full-length Mosin Nagant rifle, probably an M91 Dragoon or M91/30. Same looking rifle is also used by Pavel (Konstantin Grigoryev) in the final scene.
In one scene Pavel (Konstantin Grigoryev) takes a percussion cap musket in Uvarov's house and uses it to threaten the brigands. The musket is fitted with a fake flared muzzle to make it look like a Blunderbuss. Upon a close inspection of the lock, this gun is possibly a flintlock, converted into a percussion cap.
A Browning wz. 1928 light machine gun is used by Cossacks and then by Pavel (Konstantin Grigoryev). This Polish version of Browning Automatic Rifle appeared only a decade after the events of the movie. The screen gun is a late version of Wz.28, identified by a "fish tail" buttstock.
