Red Dragon (2002)


Smith & Wesson Model 459

The Smith & Wesson Model 459 is the main sidearm of FBI Special Agent Will Graham (Edward Norton) at the beginning of the film. He is seen drawing it from a shoulder holster as Lecter stabs him. Graham is also seen preparing one for the raid on Dolarhyde's house. The FBI purchased 803 S&W 459's and issued it to agents in the early eighties. The second generation 459 was manufactured from 1979-1987. Since the film begins in 1980, Graham's 459 would be consistent.

Smith & Wesson Model 38 Airweight Bodyguard

Graham (Edward Norton) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 38 Airweight Bodyguard as his backup gun in an ankle holster. He draws it when Lecter continues to come after him. There is also a possibility that it is the Model 49 Bodyguard. The difference being that the Model 49 has an all steel frame where the Model 38 has an alloy frame.
