Red Heat is a 1988 Action film/comedy in which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Soviet police officer Ivan Danko. His American partner is played by James Belushi. They work together to catch a powerful Soviet (Georgian) drug dealer, Viktor Rostavili. The movie was directed by Walter Hill (director), and written by Hill and Troy Kennedy Martin.
Podbyrin 9.2 mm
This is actually a modified Western Desert Eagle .357 Magnum. The Podbyrin does not exist and was made up as a prop for the movie to look more like a Soviet weapon. It is the main weapon for Ivan Danko (Arnold Schwarzenegger) for much of the movie, until he gets it taken away, due to his lack of a diplomatic license.
Walter Hill, the films director, has said in interviews that he wanted a "P38 on steroids".
SKS Rifle
Used by Red Square parade soldiers.
BTJ DA38
The "sleeve pistol" used by Viktor Rosta(Ed O Ross). It was modified by Tim La France, who also modified the Desert Eagle, and made the sleeve device(A la Taxi Driver). The barrel of the derringer was cut off and a new one with a bore larger than a 12 gauge was machined, welded and blended into the original contours.
Taurus PT99
Several Taurus PT99 pistols are used by many random thugs in the movie:
Glock 17
Used by the "Nurse" in drag to fire at Ivan Danko in the hospital corridor.
Heckler & Koch P9S
One weapon employed by Viktor Rostavili is a stainless Heckler & Koch P9S.
Smith & Wesson Model 66 Snubnose
A Snubnosed Smith & Wesson Model 66 is the sidearm of Art Ridžić (Jim Belushi) in the movie.
Smith & Wesson Model 29
One of the guns used by Danko is the Smith & Wesson Model 29. And in typical "Hollywood" Fashion, he fires eighteen shots out of the six shot revolver without reloading.
Smith and Wesson Bodyguard
Used by a Hotel guest to protect herself from "loads of weirdos out there".
