It can not be conclusivly said to be a thermite gernade but this can be assumed due to the cylander shape and the explosions produce a lot of sparks.

.357 Magnum with 4" barrel

Garry (Donald Moffat) uses the Colt Trooper MkIII to shoot the Norwegian when he is trying to kill the infected dog with the H&K 93. The revolver was prevously thought to be a S&W Model 15, however the M15 is similar in looks. The Colt has a shrouded ejector rod housing, the M15 does not. The pictured revolver has the shrouded ejector rod unlike the S&W M15..
