The following weapons were used in the film Midnight Run:
At the beginning of the film, bounty hunter Jack Walsh (Robert De Niro) carries a third generation Colt Detective Special as his sidearm until he has to check the revolver before boarding a commercial flight. During the shootout at the Chicago bus station, one of the FBI agents is briefly seen with a first generation Colt Detective Special drawn.
Marvin (John Ashton) carries a nickel Beretta 92SB as he apprehends a fugitive at the film's beginning. He appears to hold this pistol when he boards the train carrying Walsh and Mardukis. Walsh takes it from him during the scuffle on the train.
The fugitive chased by Walsh and Marvin at the film's beginning is seen using what appears to be a Winchester Model 1897 shotgun with the stock removed.
Throughout the film, Marvin (John Ashton) uses a Mossberg 590 shotgun with an extended magazine tube. Other federal and local law enforcement also carry the shotgun.
