Let Sleeping Cops Lie (Ne réveillez pas un flic qui dort) is a 1988 French crime movie by Jose Pinheiro 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. Personal weapon of Eugène Grindel (Alain Delon) is MR-73 Gendarmerie model with 4-inch (?) barrel and rubber grips. There can be also seen several other models of MR-73 that differ in barrel length and the grips.
Two of the main characters use revolvers that looks similar to MR-73 but a little different: commissaire Roger Scatti (Michel Serrault) and police inspector Péret (Patrick Catalifo), Grindel's main assistant.
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 service revolvers of the French police.
Pistols
M1911
Police inspector Spiero (Stéphane Jobert) is armed with M1911 pistol during most scenes of the movie (in the final scene he replaced it with MR-73 revolver).
Walther P38
Walther P38 is the weapon of Pierre Stadler (Féodor Atkine), former Red Brigades terrorist. He had no chance to use it when Scatti's men seized him.
Smith & Wesson 39
Nickel-plated Smith & Wesson Model 39-2 is the weapon of Le Stéphanois (Serge Reggiani), commissaire Grindel's informant. He was shot when riding on a carousel, but managed to fire his pistol several times - only to kill and wound innocent bystanders.

Commissaire Scatti (Michel Serrault) used AC556K version of Mini-14 to kill inspector Péret.
