The following weapons were used in the film The Thomas Crown Affair:

Colt Detective Special

Three of the four criminals in the bank heist sequence carry suppressed Colt Detective Specials, even though in real life, silencers do nothing to dampen a revolver's gunshot.

Walther P38

The 4th robber, Abe (Addison Powell), uses a suppressed Walther P38 which is strange, as all the others used Colt Detective Specials. Funnily a silencer would actually work on a P38, in contrast to the revolvers.

Snubnose Revolvers
