Migunko (Anatoliy Solonitsyn) gives his TT to Nina (Zhanna Prokhorenko). TTs in the movie are of correct pre-1947 version.
German officers, including SS-Hauptsturmfuhrer Weiseing (Viktor Pavlovsky) and Maj. Kracht (Oleg Savosin), use Luger P08 pistols in several scenes. Other officers and NCOs, including SS-Sturmbannfuhrer Schirach (Grigoriy Shpigel) and warrant officer Glotke (Pavel Vinnik) are seen carrying holstered Lugers. Capt. Migunko (Anatoliy Solonitsyn) also uses a Luger when he impersonates Weiseing.
Dvigubskiy (Nikolai Kryukov) and Luftwaffe Lt. Col. von Bulow (Voldemar Akuraters) use Walther P38s during the duel. In the final scene Col. Koester (Gurgen Tonunts) draws a P38 from his pocket (not a best choice for pocket pistol).
Soviet commandos, including Capt. Migunko (Anatoliy Solonitsyn), Sgt. Sokolov (Vladimir Marenkov), Harri Hatzel (Harri Schweitz), Kartsev (Oleg Khalimonov) and twin brothers Igor and Seraphim Semernin (both - Arkady Svidersky), are armed with MP40 SMGs. In the final scene Nina (Zhanna Prokhorenko) fires the MP40, taked from wounded Migunko. MP40s are also used by German soldiers.

Col. von Bulow (Voldemar Akuraters), carry Double Barreled Shotguns during the deer hunt. Denis Korneevich Prokhorenko (Nikolay Grinko) uses a double barreled shotgun in the final scene. All shotguns have exposed hammers.
KPV heavy machine guns in 2M-5 twin mounting are mounted on Project 123K torpedo boat, standing for German S-class torpedo boat. Sokolov (Vladimir Marenkov) mans the machine gun during the attack of German plane.
German soldiers use stick hand grenades in the final scene. They appear to be mockups, resembling Model 24 Stielhandgranate hand grenades. The mockups look similar to ones, used in Otryad osobogo naznacheniya, filmed on same studio.
