The following firearms can be seen in Brannigan (1975):

Brannigan (1975)

Colt Diamondback

Carried and used by Brannigan (John Wayne) throughout the movie. It is a source of tension between Brannigan and Commander Sawnn (Richard Attenborough)since it is against Scotland Yard procedure and English law for Brannigan to carry the Diamondback. Naturally Brannigan continues to carry it and uses it as well.

Brannigan (John Wayne)opens fire on the contract killer (Daniel Pilon) sent after him.
Later in the movie Brannigan (John Wayne) is again engaged in a firefight with the contract killer Gorman (Daniel Pilon).
Brannigan takes careful aim as Gorman is bearing down on him in his Jaguer.
The "Money Shot".

Colt Detective Special

Carried by Commander Swann (Richard Attenborough) of Scotland Yard. There is only a brief glimpse of the revolver, but it appears to have the lines of a second generation Colt Detective Special.

M1911

Carried and used by Mr. Fields (Mel Ferrer). Lawyer to the gangster Larkin (John Vernon) who is the criminal that Brannigan (John Wayne) is in London for. It is clearly a Model 1911. In the screencap there is no arched mainspring housing. In 1974 (the year of the movie's production) Colt was still manufacturing the 1911A1 with the arched mainspring housing. Also considering that the movie was filmed in England there is a strong possibility that the 1911 is one of the models chambered for .455 auto.

Original Colt M1911 (dated 1913) - .45 ACP
A tense moment for Larkin (John Vernon) as he wonders if Fields (Mel Ferrer) is actually going to betray him.Note the flat backstrap on the grip indicating that its a 1911 model.
Though Fields (Mel Ferrer) has proven his loyalty Larkin (John Vernon) is giving him a "friendly" reminder that he is still in charge.

Luger P08

At the beginning of the movie Brannigan (John Wayne) uses a Luger P08 in a plastic bag to coherce information out of a counterfeiter. He tells the bad guy that the Luger has no serial number and will not have any prints thanks to the plastic. After the low-life talks he grabs the Luger whne Brannigan seemingly has a mental breakdown and puts it down on a table within arm reach of the counterfeiter. It turns out that the Luger was empty all along.

Luger P08 - 9x19mm.

Walther P38K

Carried and used by one of Larkin's (John Vernon) kidnappers Charlie (James Booth). An examination of the barrel shows that it is threaded for a supressor.
