The following weapons were used in the film The Finger Man (Le Doulos):
Colt Army Special
A Colt Army Special revolver with 3" barrel is used by Maurice Faugel (Serge Reggiani). Later the same revolver is seen in hands of Silien (Jean-Paul Belmondo). In the movie this revolver is correctly called a Colt but its caliber is called .44 which obviously doesn't match the screen gun.
Walther P38
A Walther P38 is used by Silien (Jean-Paul Belmondo) in several scenes.
M1911A1
Kern (Carl Studer) uses an M1911A1 in the final scene.
FN Model 1922
An pistol that is supposed to be a FN Model 1922 is carried by Rémy (Philippe Nahon), Maurice's parthner, during the burglary. Maurice uses Rémy's pistol to fire at police. Commissaire Clain (Jean Desailly) also carries an FN Model 1922 (though it can be a MAB Model D, it's hard to say for sure).
Unique Rr 51
Police Inspector Salignari (Daniel Crohem) carries a pistol that appears to be a Unique Rr 51.
