Blue Steel is a 1989 thriller directed by Kathryn Bigelow (The Hurt Locker) and starring Jamie Lee Curtis as Megan Turner, a rookie NYPD cop who must track down a crazed Wall Street trader (Ron Silver) who has gone on a killing spree with a gun he found at Turner's first shootout.
The following weapons were used in the film Blue Steel:

M1911
At the beginning of the film, we see police officers undergoing training for a hostage situation. A simulated scene of domestic abuse is used, with the "husband" holding a (most likely unloaded) M1911 to his "wife's" head and threatening her.
Smith & Wesson Model 29
A Smith & Wesson Model 29 is one of the main guns in the film. Originally belonging to "Wool Cap" (Tom Sizemore) a robber who uses it to hold up a grocery store, it finds its way into the hands of mentally unbalanced Wall Street trader Eugene Hunt (Ron Silver), after the criminal is shot and killed by Officer Megan Turner (Jamie Lee Curtis). Eugene appropriates the gun and subsequently goes on a killing spree with it.
Smith & Wesson Model 10 HB
Officer Megan Turner (Jamie Lee Curtis) uses a heavy-barrel Smith & Wesson Model 10 with Pachmayr rubber grips as her duty sidearm for most of the film.
Smith & Wesson Model 66
Detective Nick Mann (Clancy Brown) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 66 snubnose revolver that is kept in a shoulder holster and never seen very clearly.
Unidentified Pistol
As part of the simulation, after the trainees "kill" the faux husband (they fire blanks and he falls down), the faux wife pulls an automatic pistol from her purse, "killing" the trainees if they're not quick enough.
