Red Heat (1988)

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".
