	There is one scene in which one can see a revolver in a motorcycle officer's holster with either fake ivory (i.e. plastic) grips or genuine ivory target grips. Judging from the grip's shape, it possible that it is a [[Smith & Wesson Model 58]] revolver. For several years, the S.F.P.D. authorized officers to carry the [[Smith & Wesson Model 58\|S&W Model 58 .41 magnum]]. The Model 58 was manufactured between 1964 - 1977. The S.F.P.D. gave its full cooperation to the production in the spring of 1968 and it's plausible that the two officers were the real thing using their actual equipment.
