The Smith & Wesson Model 36 / 38 and variants can be seen in the following films, television series, video games, and anime used by the following actors:
Smith & Wesson Model 36 "Chief's Special"
The Smith and Wesson Model 36 (often called simply ".38 snubnose") was introduced in 1950 as the "Chief's Special" (sometimes called the "Police Chiefs Special"). When Smith & Wesson adopted a model number only system seven years later, the revolvers' name was changed to Model 36. It is famous as being the first J-frame revolver in the S&W series (the earlier models were called "I-frames"). It is commonly used as a "belly gun", being stuffed in the pants waist, or as an officer's "Spare Rod", strapped to the ankle in a holster. It holds five rounds of .38 Special. Most of the Model 36 revolvers have been manufactured with the so-called "round-butt", but periodically Smith & Wesson would produce runs of the model with the "square-butt" configuration.

Smith & Wesson Model 38/49
The Smith & Wesson Model 38/49 "Bodyguard" is a Model 36 that has a "Camel Hump" hammer shroud used to prevent clothing snag, as the hammer is concealed in the shroud. The Smith & Wesson Bodyguard was unusual in that the alloy framed "Airweight" version was released first, as the Smith & Wesson Airweight Bodyguard, in 1955. In 1957 Smith & Wesson introduced a new model numbering system, with the Airweight Bodyguard becoming the Model 38. The steel-framed Bodyguard, the Model 49, was not introduced until 1959, unusual in that most Airweights were preceded by their steel counterparts. In Saigon, Vietnam in February 1968, a Bodyguard revolver was used by General Nguyễn Ngọc Loan to summarily execute Viet Cong assassin Nguyễn Văn Lém, resulting in one of the most recognized images of the Vietnam war. For the new polymer framed Bodyguard see Smith & Wesson Bodyguard 38.

Riva Esterina Dobermann
The Riva Esterina Dobermann is a snub nose Italian revolver, a clone of the much better known Smith & Wesson Model 36. It was manufactured in the 1970s by Officina Meccanica Armi Riva Esterina & Co. The main visual difference between Dobermann and S&W Model 36 revolvers is the shape of the front sight (it is shorter and with higher profile) and the Riva Esterina logo on grip.
Riva Esterina Dobermann is often seen in Italian crime movies of 1970s and hardly can appear in non-Italian productions.
