Alamases's Gorge (Russian: Ущелье Аламасов; Ushchelye Alamasov) is a 1937 Soviet adventure movie. A group of Soviet-Mongolian explorers enter a wild mountain range far from civilization to locate a valuable oil field. The native peoples don't enter this region due to mysterious creatures called Almas that live in the mountains. The explorers reach their destination and find hostile soldiers (the hostile state isn't named, but the uniform and weaponry of the soldiers resembles that of the Imperial Japanese Army), which have secretly invaded Mongolia. Now, they must fight to defend their discovery and unravel the mystery of the Almas.

Note: An Almas is a mysterious humanoid creature from the folk religions of Central Asian native peoples, whose existence currently has never been proven, but never disproven. It is often described as a large, hairy, bipedal creature, not unlike North America's Bigfoot.


The following weapons were used in the film Alamases's Gorge (Ushchelye Alamasov):

Lewis Model 1924

A Soviet R-5 combat plane is equipped with Twin Lewis Model 1924 machine guns. Note: The "Model 1924" is a Soviet designation for infantry Lewis machine guns converted for aircraft service. They were used on some Soviet planes in the late 1920s until replaced by the Degtyaryov DA. Unlike "true" aircraft Lewis Guns, the "Model 1924" still had the radiator fins and was fitted only with 47-round drum magazines.
