Colt Detective Special

Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is seen loading up a Colt Detective Special while in a drunken state during a flashback at the begining of the film, on trial for killing his cheating wife and her lover.

M14

Captain Hadley (Clancy Brown) uses an M14 Rifle fitted with a scope to kill Tommy (Gil Bellows) when he tries to tell the prison that he knew the man who realy killed Dufresne's wife and lover. It is not likely an M21, since prisons aren't usually outfitted with Marine sniper weaponry. Since at the time this scene takes place, the M14 and M21 rifles were in frontline service with the U.S. Military, it is doubtful they would be issued to guards in some smalltown Maine prison.

M14 rifle - 7.62x51mm NATO.

Warden Norton (Bob Gunton) pulls a Smith & Wesson Model 10 revolver with a 2" barrel from his desk when the police try to break into his office to arrest him for tax fraud and murder. He loads up the gun with the intention of fighting them, but changes his mind and commits suicide instead.
