Smith & Wesson Model 629

Smith & Wesson 639
A police officer at the beginning of the film uses a Smith & Wesson 639 as his sidearm. Detective Jeffrey Friedman (Paul Reiser) can be also seen with one tucked in his waistband. One of Maitland's thugs also uses one to hold Axel and gunpoint, and later to shoot at Billy Rosewood. Lieutenant Andrew Bogomil (Ronny Cox) uses this as his primary sidearm, as seen during the climax of the film. It is likely that the same gun was used in all scenes because they all have wood grips and adjustable sights.
Dan Wesson revolver
Several Beverly Hills Police officers use 4" barreled Dan Wesson revolver with enclosed ejector rod and ventilated rib, indicating that it is the standard issue sidearm for the Beverly Hills Police Department. At first sight it looks like a Colt Trooper, but looking closely, it can be identified as a Dan Wesson revolver. A security guard

The second robber at the strip club uses a Sawn off double barreled shotgun before being disarmed by Sgt. Taggart.
