The following firearms were used in the film Serpico:
Smith & Wesson Model 36
Many of the NYPD officers and detectives throughout the film use Smith & Wesson Model 36 snubnose revolvers. Officer Frank Serpico (Al Pacino) carries a white-gripped model when he becomes a plainclothes officer, Bob Blair (Tony Roberts) carries one on his belt, and Chief Sidney Green (John Randolph) has one by his nightstand in the opening scene.

Sterling Arms pistol
A Sterling Arms pistol, as seen in Taxi Driver, is found by Serpico in Rudy Corsaro's (Richard Foronjy) glove compartment.
Browning Hi-Power
Towards the end of the film, Serpico (Al Pacino) purchases for himself a Browning Hi-Power from the famous John Jovino gun shop in New York City. The salesman incorrectly tells him it "takes a 14-shot clip". Although a Hi-Power can have a maximum capacity of fourteen 9 mm rounds, the magazine (not clip!) itself can only carry thirteen. Serpico tries in vain to draw his Hi-Power during the fake drug buy, but is unable to get a shot off.
Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose
Inspector Lombardo (Edward Grover) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 10 Snubnose during his raid with Serpico.
Colt Woodsman
One of the Spanish drug dealers shoots Serpico in the face with a .22 caliber Colt Woodsman, with the doctors later telling Serpico's parents that the low caliber of the bullet most likely saved his life.
