*In the Line of Duty: The F.B.I. Murders* (1988)

In The Line Of Duty: The F.B.I. Murders is a 1988 made-for-television film based on the events of a real life FBI investigation which led to the April 11, 1986 FBI Miami shooting incident.

The following weapons were used in the film In the Line of Duty: The F.B.I. Murders:

Pistols

Smith & Wesson 459

Special Agent Ben Grogan (Ronny Cox) and Special Agent Jerry Dove (Bruce Greenwood) both carry Smith & Wesson 459 9mm pistols as their sidearms. Special Agent Ron Risner (Randal Patrick) is also armed with a 459. This is quite accurate, as the FBI purchased 803 S&W 459's and issued them to SWAT trained Special Agents in the early eighties.

The two weapons were personally owned by Mirelles and McNeill, respectively, and are both listed in FBI documents as being approved for carry by the respective agents.

-Actually, Mirelles and the other agents with revolvers could possibly have had four inch Model 13 Smith & Wesson guns in .357 Magnum. FBI agents in those days were issued the Model 13 with a three inch barrel and a round butt frame. This gun was no longer issued after the Miami shootout on which this movie is based. The FBI felt that a more powerful cartridge in an automatic pistol platform would be more suitable in these situations. Subsequently, the 10mm S&W cartridge was introduced in an automatic pistol built to chamber it. Soon after, the .40 Smith & Wesson cartridge was introduced, and has since become the most popular law enforcement cartridge in history. The guns in the film look like a four inch barrel, and the Model 13 looks like a Model 10 and while not factually accurate in barrel length, this gun COULD have been the one used in the film.
+==Smith & Wesson Model 36==
+Special Agent John Hanlon ([[Peter McRobbie]]) uses a backup [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]] in the shootout scene, after his main sidearm was knocked over during a collision with the other pursuit vehicles.

Michael Platt takes the revolver and attempts to shoot Agent Ed Mirelles with it, missing his head by inches before the gun jams. In the actual shootout a Smith & Wesson Model 586 was used. But it was the Dan Wesson revolver that Platt pulled from Matix's shoulder holster.

In the actual shootout Matix's Smith & Wesson M3000 shotgun featured an extended magazine tube so the barrel would not have been cut down. Since neither had criminal records it would have been unwise to cut down below the legal 18" and also lose round capacity.
