Revolvers

Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snub

Joe Hallenbeck (Bruce Willis) uses a 2.5" barrel Smith & Wesson Model 19 Snubbie throughout most of the film. It is taken by Milo (Taylor Negron) and used in an attempt to frame Hallenback after he removes his fingerprints and leaves it at the crime scene. This gun is accurate for Hallenbeck to carry as he is an ex-U.S. Secret Service Agent and the Model 19 was the standard issue sidearm of the USSS before switching to semi automatic handguns.

"Yes, officer. As a matter of fact there is a problem. Apparently there are too many bullets in this gun." Milo (Taylor Negron) fires Joe's S&W.

Joe's revolver is picked up by the trigger guard.

Milo sticks the gun in Joe's hand so only his fingerprints are on it and he can be framed for the murder.

Milo tosses the gun out of the car window. Note how the S&W now is a molded rubber prop so that the real gun isn't damaged by the fall.

Smith & Wesson Model 66 (Snub)

Darian Hallenbeck (Danielle Harris), Joe's daughter, takes a Smith & Wesson Model 66 with a 2.5" barrel out of the car glove compartment and hides it in her stuffed puppet before giving it to Joe, who uses it to shoot several armed thugs holding him up. Just like Joe's Model 19 Snub, the Model 66 Snub is fitted with Pachmayr Presentation grips. Det. McClusky (Clarence Felder) appears to have a Smith & Wesson Model 66 Snub in his holster.

Darian very negligently swings the Model 66 Snub to Jimmy's face.

Joe fires the Model 66 Snub through his daughter's puppet. Note how the hole where the bullet supposedly fired through is considerably widened so the muzzle of the gun is clear of the puppet, preventing the blank flame from burning it or setting it on fire.
