Cabbages and Kings (original title Koroli i kapusta) is a 1978 Soviet made for TV adventure movie based on the novel by O. Henry. Two adventurers, Billy Keogh (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) and Frank Goodwin (Valentin Gaft), spent their days in a fictional Central American country Anchuria.

The following weapons are seen in the movie Cabbages and Kings:


Handguns

Nagant M1895 (visually modified)

A Nagant M1895, visually modified to resemble Western-style revolvers, is Frank Goodwin's (Valentin Gaft) sidearm. The revolver is fitted with custom grips, an elongated barrel and a side positioned ejector rod. Similar revolvers are carried by officers of the army of Anchuria.

Smith & Wesson Military & Police

In the final scene Billy Keogh's (Armen Dzhigarkhanyan) revolver switches to another one that is supposed to be a Smith & Wesson Military & Police. It is more likely to be a European copy of S&W revolver. This revolver is never seen firing.

Unidentified pistol

A pistol is seen in hand of former Anchurian president Miraflores (Vasili Chkhaidze). It resembles single-shot breech-loading handguns of mid-19th century. Another guess is that this movie prop is a sawn-off top-break single barreled shotgun or rifle equipped with a pistol grip.
