The following weapons were used in the film 10 to Midnight:

Smith & Wesson Revolvers

In several scenes police officers carry revolvers in holsters. The grips allow to guess these revolvers to be Smith & Wesson models.

For comparison: Smith & Wesson Model 10 Revolver - .38 Special
For comparison: Smith & Wesson Model 13 with 3" barrel - .357 Magnum

One of the guards, escorting arrested Warren Stacy, carries a similar looking revolver.
In same scene another guard carries a revolver. The shape of the grip and the size of the holster allow to guess that it's a version of Smith & Wesson Model 10HB, Model 13 or Model 19 with 2.5" or 3" barrel.
