A nickel plated Smith & Wesson Model 36 with Pachmayr grips is a personal sidearm of police Commissioner Lydie Herzog (Sophie von Kessel). During the shootout with Norbert Loggia's bodyguards her revolver switches to a Ruger SP101 (see below) and then back to S&W.
Ruger SP101
During the shootout with Norbert Loggia's bodyguards Commissioner Lydie Herzog (Sophie von Kessel) uses a Ruger SP101 that switches back to her usual nickel plated Smith & Wesson Model 36 after the shootout.
Numerous police personnel carry revolvers in holsters. Some revolvers are also seen in action but they aren't seen clear enough for identification (though Manurhin F1 or MR-73 are most possible versions).
Pistols
Colt M1911
When Frank Riva (Alain Delon) comes back in Paris, his old friend Xavier Unger (Jacques Perrin), now the director-general of the General Directorate of the National Police, hands back Riva's Colt M1911 that was kept by Unger for a quarter century. Riva uses this pistol throughout the season.
Drug boss Maxime Loggia (Luis Marquès) uses a Smith & Wesson 6906 when he takes as hostage pregnant Nina Rizzi (Mélanie Maudran), Frank Riva's daughter. A female enforcer of Colombian drug mafia Minda Fierro (Carmela Ramos) uses same looking pistol, most likely same prop.
M1911-style pistol
A stainless steel (or possibly but less credible nickel plated) M911-style pistol is used by Marie Forlo (Alice Taglioni) during her revenge on aged and retired criminals who killed Marie's father many years ago. The pistol has uncommon combination of classic 1911-style slide with vertical serration and angular trigger guard.
Another M1911-style pistol is seen in hands of Loggia's bodyguard (this character, armed with a Taurus PT908 (see below) was gunned by Commissioner Herzog but then he appears again, this time holding the M1911-style pistol). This pistol also has vertical slide serration and angular trigger guard, but differs in finish (blued) and has adjustable rear sight.
One more M1911-style pistol is used by the enforcer of Colombian drug mafia Jimmy Esperanza aka Jefferson Villa (Eric Defosse).
Taurus PT908
During the killing of aged criminals Marie Forlo's (Alice Taglioni) gun switches from M1911-style pistol to a stainless Taurus PT908. Marie continues using this pistol until she is disarmed by a Loggia's bodyguard.
Beretta 92 style
A pistol, used for assassination of Commissioner Tony Rezzoni, is hidden by Jean-Luc Roth and later found by Frank Riva. Riva threatens Roth with this pistol. This is Beretta 92 style pistol but as the back of the slide together with the grip and trigger guard is wrapped in some soft cloth, it's impossible to identify the gun as Beretta, a Taurus PT92 or some other Beretta clone.
A SIG-Sauer P220 style pistol, fitted with weaponlight, is used by an officer of special police unit during the attack on drug dealer Eric Chaelle's hideout. Some holstered pistols, seen in this scene, may be of same model.
