We also see a full ejector shroud model with the longer sight as the sidearm of Capt. Ed Hocken (George Kennedy). Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban) shows off his mind control watch to a friend, in which his assistant draws a full shroud Detective Special and tries to fire it at him, and puts the gun to her own head as well, only for it to be empty.

M1911A1

An M1911A1 is the sidearm of Det. Nordberg (O.J. Simpson) during his infiltration of the boat "I Love You" before being shot up and barely surviving. The assassin under the control of Vincent Ludwig (Ricardo Montalban) is also seen pulling an M1911A1 from under a base plate at the ball game, using it in an attempt to kill Queen Elizabeth II (Jeannette Charles) before Frank Drebin (Leslie Nielsen) fires a tranquilizer round at him, which misses, and hits a fat woman on the upper level, who falls on him with disasterous results. Drebin then picks up the M1911A1 and pursues Ludwig.

Colt MK IV Series 70 - .45 ACP.

Det. Nordberg kicks down the door with his M1911A1 drawn.

Nordberg bursts in with his badge and M1911A1 drawn, and stupidly tries to get seven armed men to surrender their weapons (one of which is dumb ebough to do so before the other men force him to pick it back up).

An Angels team member under the control of Ludwig retrieves a Colt Series 70 from under the base plate to kill the Queen.

The team member points his Colt Series 70 at the Queen.

The team member dodges Drebin's tranquilizer dart.

Drebin confronts Ludwig armed with the Colt.

Taurus PT92

One of the sailors on the boat "I Love You" uses a stainless Taurus PT92. A Taurus is also used by a criminal in the meat packing plant before falling into a vat of toxic chemicals (which doesn't seem to follow health code for the plant).
