Andre is a common Russian name, and Beaudreau is Boudreaux, a common joke protagonist in Cajun country.
So a Russian and a Cajun are hunting in the bayou.
Where's the guns, Druillet?
They don't trust each other, so one of them took away the guns.
Which one?
Droog is Russian for "friend" and Druillet sounds like he's trying to Frenchify it, "Where's the guns, friend?" (Russian talking)
Druillet could be a Frenchified nickname for Andre, "Where's the guns, Andre?" (American talking)
Neither side trusts each other, and we the audience don't know who is saying what to whom.
Cold War joke.
