Free Hand for a Tough Cop (original title Il trucido e lo sbirro) is a 1976 Italian crime movie directed by Umberto Lenzi. A small girl is kidnapped by the ruthless criminal Brescianelli (Henry Silva). In order to save her, Commissioner Antonio Sarti (Claudio Cassinelli) releases from prison Sergio Marazzi (Tomás Milián), Brescianelli's old rival. Note: Milián's character Sergio Marazzi later appears in Brothers Till We Die though there is no direct connection between these two movies.

Riva Esterina Dobermann

Various criminals use snub nose revolvers. They look similar to Smith & Wesson Model 36 but the high profile of the front sight and the different shape of the frame and barrel allow to identify this gun as Riva Esterina Dobermann, an Italian clone of S&W Model 36.
