Yip Man (2009)

[Milkovich]

Already worked out the article. The movie (primary focus on martial arts) has a total of 3 guns, 2 of them high profile (the Arisaka Type 99 rifle is wielded by every single Japanese soldier in the film and the Nambu Type 14 is the sidearm of Sato, a Japanese Colonel). IMDB Page

I have problems identifying the following revolver:

It´s a 6 shot break-action. Ip Man knocks the cylinder out with his bare hand. I was wondering if this is realistic at all.

Realistically, it would be impossible to simply knock out the revolving chamber with just your finger. I have no idea what this revolver is. At first, it might be a Webley, but then it could be a Nagant.

Well, the Nagant isn´t a top break revolver and the Webley´s of this size all lack an ejector rod.

I have no idea. It looks almost like a mutant offspring between a Webley-Pryse Model 1877 (left) and a Nambu Type 26 revolver (right) That exposed ejector rod is goofy and it looks like it has the Pryse frame locking hinge design. Is it possible that this a non gun made from different revolvers? Well if Nyles shows up maybe he can figure it out.

I love these Chinese movies. Their martial arts masters have supernatural abilities. Which makes for an entertaining movie, but it they were so amazing how was it that the Japanese managed to conquer a third of China and inflict defeat after defeat on the Chinese forces? The only thing that defeated the Japanese was they were fighting a two front war and the sheer size of China.
