Unidentified revolvers
Maj. Armstrong (Vytautas Tomkus) and other crewmembers of US Navy P-3 Orion patrol plane (which is in reality a disguised Soviet IL-38) carry revolvers in holsters. Only the grips can be seen. The grips of these revolvers resemble Colt or Smith & Wesson models; it's hard to say if these guns are genuine, or visually modified, or even simple mockups. See additional images on talk page.
