Red Heat is a 1988 Action film/comedy in which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Soviet police officer Ivan Danko. His American partner is played by James Belushi. They work together to catch a powerful Soviet (Georgian) drug dealer, Viktor Rostavili. The movie was directed by Walter Hill (director), and written by Hill and Troy Kennedy Martin.
Podbyrin 9.2 mm
This is actually a modified Western Desert Eagle .357 Magnum. The Podbyrin does not exist and was made up as a prop for the movie to look more like a Soviet weapon. It is the main weapon for Ivan Danko (Arnold Schwarzenegger) for much of the movie, until he gets it taken away, due to his lack of a diplomatic license.
Walter Hill, the films director, has said in interviews that he wanted a "P38 on steroids".
SKS Rifle
Used by Red Square parade soldiers.
BTJ DA38
The "sleeve pistol" used by Viktor Rosta(Ed O Ross). It was modified by Tim La France, who also modified the Desert Eagle, and made the sleeve device(A la Taxi Driver). The barrel of the derringer was cut off and a new one with a bore larger than a 12 gauge was machined, welded and blended into the original contours.
Taurus PT92
There are several Taurus PT92s in the movie:
Actually, I think it might be the similar PT99; in the first screencap, it looks like it might have the adjustable rear sight, but I can't really tell. Do you have another screencap showing the sight in better detail?
I think that you are right, and the gun is, indeed, a PT99. Sorry I don't have a better screencap
Glock 17
Used by the "Nurse" in drag to fire at Ivan Danko in the hospital corridor.
Heckler & Koch P9S
Smith & Wesson 66
A Smith & Wesson Model 66 is the sidearm of Jim Belushi in the movie.
Smith & Wesson 29
One of the guns used by Danko is the Smith & Wesson Model 29. And in typical "Hollywood" Fashion, he fires eighteen shots out of the six shot revolver without reloading.
Smith and Wesson Bodyguard
Used by a Hotel guest to protect herself from "loads of weirdos out there".
