===Fegyvergyár PJK-9HP===
Frank Lucas ([[Denzel Washington]]) carries a [[Browning Hi-Power#FEG PJK-9HP|Fegyvergyar PJK-9HP]]. This weapon is chrome plated with wood grips, and has been converted for blank fire. During production the gun was set up as a "solid plug" version, meaning the barrel was completely blocked off so the gun could safely be fired close to a person's skin. This was necessary for the scene in the film where Lucas shoots a rival gangster in the forehead, and then places the gun on his chest.

This was the only FÉG pistol rented to the production, so the same gun seen on screen in every shot. It can be screen matched by the woodgrain of the grips and small scratches on the frame.

NYPD Detective Trupo ([[Josh Brolin]]) uses a [[Smith & Wesson Model 19]] "Snubbie" throughout the movie. This is a technical inaccuracy as the NYPD did not authorize the .357 magnum revolver (and never has) for use by its officers during the time period covered in the movie. Officers were restricted to .38 special Colt or Smith & Wesson revolvers in the sixties and seventies. But Trupo is a corrupt cop who ignores the rules and has "juice", so it could be argued he received a special exemption as long as he loaded it with .38 Special only.

==Beretta 3032 Tomcat==
===Beretta 3032 Tomcat===
 
The [[Beretta 3032 Tomcat]] is used by one of Lucas's party guests to wound another with a leg shot. This is anachronistic, as the 3032 was not first manufactured in 1979, several years after the events depicted in the movie.
The [[Beretta Tomcat]] is chambered in .32 ACP, and was first manufactured in 1979 as a carry or holdout pistol. It was used by one of Lucas's party guests to wound another with a leg shot. It is not the 950 Jetfire because of the rounded trigger guard and higher profile front sight.

This is a production flaw in that the events depicted are meant to have taken place in the mid 70's whereas the Tomcat was not invented by Beretta until 1979.

Handguns

Fegyvergyár PJK-9HP

Frank Lucas (Denzel Washington) carries a Fegyvergyar PJK-9HP. This weapon is chrome plated with wood grips, and has been converted for blank fire. During production the gun was set up as a "solid plug" version, meaning the barrel was completely blocked off so the gun could safely be fired close to a person's skin. This was necessary for the scene in the film where Lucas shoots a rival gangster in the forehead, and then places the gun on his chest.

This was the only FÉG pistol rented to the production, so the same gun seen on screen in every shot. It can be screen matched by the woodgrain of the grips and small scratches on the frame.

Officers were restricted to .38 special Colt or Smith & Wesson revolvers in the sixties and seventies. But Trupo is a corrupt cop who ignores the rules and has "juice", so it could be argued he received a special exemption as long as he loaded it with .38 Special only.
