Police Python 357 is a French film starring Yves Montand as Inspector Marc Ferrot. It is named after the eponymous revolver.


Handguns

Colt Python

The Python is displayed prominently throughout the film. We can see it from the main titles:

Ferrot (Yves Montand) trains at the range, using several stands.

Ferrot (Yves Montand ) uses the revolver in the final shootout, during the armored car robbery.

Note that, in this pic, the cylinder holes are not completely round. Maybe a blank gun was used in this scene.

MAB 1935

Mathieu Carrière, as inspector Ménard uses a MAB 1935 pistol, although it is never seen well, and it is difficult to obtain a good vidcap.

MAB model D

It is hard to be sure, but I think that the police officer standing behind the car carries a MAB model D pistol.

Miscellaneous

M1911 pistol

At the beginning of the movie, we can see several long guns and handguns in a gun rack, in Ferrot’s house. The handgun at the left looks like a M1911. Note that the gun has a lanyard loop.

Another gun in the gun rack looks like a Smith & Wesson Model 10

Unidentified Firearms

Ferrot keeps a rifle, a shotgun and several handguns in a gun rack. The long guns are never seen well, and I cannot identify the handgun in the middle (it is probably a French handgun).

Interesting Details

At the beginning of the movie, we see that Ferrots handloads his own ammo at his reloading bench.

He even casts his bullets.
