The Getaway (1972)
(note: I had to add "(movie)" in the title, because there is also a "Getaway" page in the Video Games category. Hope this is OK).
Colt Government
The main sidearm of bank robber Carter 'Doc' McCoy (Steve McQueen) is a Colt Government. An M1911A1 also appears in the hand of his wife Carol (Ali MacGraw) when she shoots Benyon and during the hotel shootout.
A Star Model B is substituted for the Colt in scenes that require the pistol to be fired, as the Colt was not reliable with blanks.
Colt Python
Rudy (Al Lettieri) carries a .357 Magnum Colt Python revolver.
Colt Trooper
In a continuity mistake of the movie, we see that Rudy's Colt Python is replaced for a Colt Trooper in one scene.
High Standard 8111
McCoy goes into a gun shop to buy a 12-gauge pump shotgun and is given this rarely-seen High Standard 8111 by the shopkeeper.
Smith & Wesson M76
One of the cowboys during the hotel shootout uses a 9 mm Smith & Wesson M76 submachine gun.
unidentified .38 Revolver
Carried by the bank guard. McCoy tells his bank robbery team that "the guard carries a .38."
Ruger Mark I Standard
When McCoy is in the gun shop, we can see briefly several guns, including a Ruger Mark I Standard, hanging on the wall (I think there is also a Colt Woodsman, but I am not really sure).
