Police Squad! was a comedy series introducing Leslie Nielsen's character Det. Frank Drebin of the fictional "Police Squad!", a parody of typical cop shows of the 1960s and 1970s. The show did not last longer than six episodes but Nielsen's character was later incorporated into the popular Naked Gun film series, beginning with The Naked Gun: From the FIles of Police Squad!
The following firearms were used in the television series Police Squad!:
Colt Detective Special
The main sidearm of Det. Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) is a Colt Detective Special. Drebin's superior, Capt. Ed Hocken (Alan North) uses a Detective Special as well.
Smith & Wesson 4th Model
During the opening credits, Abraham Lincoln (Rex Harrison) fires back at his assailants with what appears to be a blued Smith & Wesson 4th Model. This character was never a character on the actual show but was a staple of the main credits. (If the show had lasted another season, Lincoln firing at the screen would have been replaced with Gandhi firing at the screen with an assault rifle, according to the show's producers).
Colt Official Police
Sally Decker (Kathryn Leigh Scott) uses two Colt Official Police revolvers when setting up the murder of Jim Johnson (Terry Wills) and Ralph Twice (Russell Shannon) in the opening scene of Episode 1. The crime lab scientist Ted Olsen (Ed Williams) is later seen firing both revolvers into sets of tapes of Barbara Walters interviews in order to prove a point to Drebin.
Colt Python
During her shootout with Drebin at the end of Episode 1, Sally Decker fires a variety of revolvers, including her Official Polices and a Colt Python.
Smith & Wesson Model 19
The special guest star Georg Stanford Brown in Episode 2 is crushed by a safe while holding a Smith & Wesson Model 19.
MP40
A hitman named Luca (Irwin Keyes) claims to be a member of the press to get in to see one of Martin's boxers in Episode 2, despite the ammunition, axe, bombs, grenades, and MP40 he is carrying.
Smith & Wesson Model 38
Luca holds a Smith & Wesson Model 38 Bodyguard on Drebin when he takes Mary, the boxer's wife, hostage in Episode 2.
unidentified bolt-action rifle
When Episode 3's special guest star Robert Goulet is killed by firing squad during the opening credits, one of the men offering him a blindfold has a bolt-action rifle (with a scope) slung over his shoulder.
Smith & Wesson Model 64
Thames (Byron Webster) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 64 during his standoff with Drebin and Hocken at the finale of Episode 3.
Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose
Stella (Rebecca Holden) fires a Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose with white grips on Drebin when he comes to her door in Episode 5. Gunderson's thug Leo (Robert Costanzo) later uses the same revolver.
unidentified revolver
One of the thugs, Rocky (John Ashton) in Episode 5 holds a revolver on Drebin while inside Jill's ballet studio.
Walther PPK
Dutch Gunderson (Al Ruscio) draws what appears to be a Walther PPK on Drebin in Episode 5.
Remington Model 1858
A Civil War soldier in Episode 6 steps off the elevator from Police Squad into a battle with a Remington 1858 New Army.
Single Action Army
The bad comedian who threatens Drebin and Veronica (Claudette Nevins) in Episode 6 has a Single Action Army before Drebin disarms him in his typical fashion.
