I Dutifully Report (Poslusne hlasim) is a 1958 Czechoslovak comedy movie, a screen adaptation of the famous Czech novel by Jaroslav Hasek, directed by Karel Stekly and starring Rudolf Hrusínský. The movie is based on the second, third and fourth parts, following The Good Soldier Schweik (Dobrý voják Švejk), released in 1957.


The following weapons were used in the film I Dutifully Report (Poslušně hlásím):


Pistols

Unidentified pistols

Most officers of Austro-Hungarian army, including Oberleutnant Lukáš (Svatopluk Beneš), Capt. Ságner (Otto Hradecký), Lt. Dub (Frantisek Filipovský), carry compact pistols in holsters. Only small parts of grips, often with lanyard rings, can be seen. The shape, size and color of these holsters match Wehrmacht-issued holsters for Czech CZ 27 pistols (P.27(t) on German service), so the pistols are likely CZ 27s or maybe earlier CZ 24s that has nearly same size. Only small parts of pistol grips are seen, some fitted with lanyard rings.
