Red Heat is a 1988 Action film/comedy in which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Soviet police officer Ivan Danko. His American partner is played by James Belushi. They work together to catch a powerful Soviet (Georgian) drug dealer, Viktor Rostavili. The movie was directed by Walter Hill (director), and written by Hill and Troy Kennedy Martin.

Podbyrin 9.2 mm

This is actually a modified Western Desert Eagle .357 Magnum. The Podbyrin does not exist and was made up as a prop for the movie to look more like a Soviet weapon.

Walter Hill, the films director, has said in interviews that he wanted a "P38 on steroids".

BTJ DA38

The "sleeve pistol" used by Viktor Rosta(Ed O Ross). It was modified by Tim La France, who also modified the Desert Eagle, and made the sleeve device(A la Taxi Driver). The barrel of the derringer was cut off and a new one with a bore larger than a 12 gauge was machined, welded and blended into the original contours.

Taurus PT92

There are several Taurus PT92s in the movie:

Actually, I think it might be the similar PT99; in the first screencap, it looks like it might have the adjustable rear sight, but I can't really tell. Do you have another screencap showing the sight in better detail?

I think that you are right, and the gun is, indeed, a PT99. Sorry I don't have a better screencap

Used by the "Nurse" in drag to fire at Ivan Danko in the hospital corridor.
