I believe that the shotgun held is actually a Smith & Wesson Model 3000 12-gauge pump. S&W was in the Police market with revolvers and shotguns in the 70s and early 80s.  Mossberg later purchased the 3000 series from Smith & Wesson as they got out of the shotgun market.  The front barrel retaining nut is visably larger than that found on the Model 500 series.

Guns seen in this movie:

Smith & Wesson Model 29

During most of the movie, Clint Eastwood, as “Dirty” Harry Callahan, carries his Model 29 in .44 Remington Magnum caliber. Actually, in one of the movies, he refers to the .44 as a "lighter load". It probably refers to the slightly shorter and much weaker .44 Special from the early 20th century.

He says that he uses a lighter magnum load,  not necessarily the .44 Special.

I believe that the shotgun held is actually a Smith & Wesson Model 3000 12-gauge pump. S&W was in the Police market with revolvers and shotguns in the 70s and early 80s. Mossberg later purchased the 3000 series from Smith & Wesson as they got out of the shotgun market. The front barrel retaining nut is visably larger than that found on the Model 500 series.
