Let Sleeping Cops Lie (Ne réveillez pas un flic qui dort) is a 1988 French crime movie directed by José Pinheiro and starring Alain Delon as police commissaire Eugène Grindel. Grindel's opponent is his colleague, commissaire Roger Scatti (Michel Serrault) who secretly arranged the ultra-right wing organization among the police. This organization called "Loyalty to the police" was similar to South American death squads. Grindel with several assistants faced with a situation where any police officer could become an enemy... (Note: this isn't a spoiler because the opening scenes of the movie shows Scatti and his death squad at work).

The following weapons are seen in the movie Let Sleeping Cops Lie (Ne réveillez pas un flic qui dort):


Revolvers

Manurhin MR-73

Most of the police and Gendarmerie officers are armed with Manurhin MR-73 revolvers. Eugène Grindel (Alain Delon) carries a MR-73 Defense model with a 4-inch barrel and rubber grips. Several other MR-73 model are seen as well.

Unidentified revolver

Police inspector Péret (Patrick Catalifo), Grindel's main assistant, carries an unidentified revolver. It looks like a MR-73 due to the shape of the hammer.

Péret gives his revolver to one of Scatti's men before he is allowed to meet with Scatti himself.

Ruger Security Six

Police officer Lutz (Xavier Deluc), one of Scatti's men, is armed with Ruger Security Six revolver. This is historically correct because Ruger Security Six was one of the service revolvers of the French police.
