Colt M1911

In a scene that takes place at the beginning of the movie,in the Police precinct, an officer is seen racking the slide of a semiauto pistol that he carries as a backup gun. It is never seen closely; it might be a M1911, a Hi-power...

Unidentified Revolver

At the end of the movie, we see a nickeled revolver, that seems to be a 2" "snubbie", in the hands of one of the bad guys. It has the exposed ejector rod like a Colt Detective Special, but the lines are different. Possibly a prop non-gun?
