M1911A1

Many of the Harlem gangsters in the film use M1911A1s. Whispers (Paul Benjamin) carries two, one on each hip, that he draws several times. Dutch Schultz (Tim Roth) and his bodyguard, Lulu Rosencrantz (Ed O'Ross) both carry 1911s, one of which is eventually used by Lulu to shoot his boss in the Palace Chop House bathroom.

It looks like Schultz's 1911 is a Series 70, which would not have existed back then, so its presence in the movie is an anachronism.

Ithaca 37

Queen Stephanie's bodyguard, Tee-Ninchy (Eddie Bo Smith Jr.) caries a sawed off Ithaca 37 as his weapon of choice. He carries it with him, (and nearly uses it) during the meeting between Queen Stephanie, and Dutch Schultz. He also uses it to kill several hitmen during the attempted hit on the Queen before being shot to death. When Bumpy and Whispers gain the upper hand during the shootout, Bumpy picks it up and uses it to (unrealisticly) set a nearby truck ablaze.
