	The shotgun in the second pic is an Ithaca 37 based on the visible magazine end cap/barrel nut and I'd bet the other is also an Ithaca just due to their common use by California PDs and ease of reusing the same short magazine shotgun in different squad cars to get their shots.

	As for that revolver it's odd, it looks like a compact along the lines of a Smith and Wesson J-frame or a Colt D-frame. It's plainly got square butt grips, fairly dark wood or the "Coltwood" synthetic grips. It kind of seems like a snub nose to me, the holster just doesn't look filled out like with a longer barreled revolver.

			:Many thanks, I fixed both issues. The film credites mention that the movie was made with the help of the SFPD, so the police cars, officers and their guns in mass scenes may be real, which is again an argument in favor of Ithaca. Also I'm currently working on the third film about Virgil Tibbs, made a year later, and Ithaca 37 is also definitely used there. --[[User:Greg-Z\|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z\|talk]]) 01:48, 10 June 2022 (EDT)
