Colt New Service

Jack Napier/The Joker (Jack Nicholson) uses a Colt New Service throughout most of the film including the BANG flag gun at the film's climax and flashback, where young Napier (played by Hugo E. Blick shoot Bruce Wayne's parents). The only exception is one small edit when he pulls back the hammer in the Axis Chemical plant. A different pistol was used for this one shot.

This one appears to be a different revolver, can anyone ID it? - Diego Wolfwood Looks like a Smith and Wesson revolver of some sort to me--User: Colt Revolver Fan

- Firing pin on the hammer and ejector-rod socket - Definitely a Smith. I'd say a Model 10 but given the front sight, it could possibly be another use of the Model 19 (see below) StanTheMan 17:37, 29 March 2010 (UTC)

Trivia: In Batman: The Brave and the Bold episode "Game Over for Owlman", the Joker is seen with a similar looking revolver from this movie. Also he tries to shoot Batman with it, only to reveal it is fake "BANG" flag gun which is another reference to this movie.

Smith & Wesson Model 1

The Joker (Jack Nicholson) uses a Smith & Wesson Model 1 when he confronts Bruce Wayne (Michael Keaton). A metal plate Bruce hid under his shirt stops the bullet.

Unknown Revolvers

There are a great many revolvers used in this movie, I will just post all revolver screens in this section, as I am no good at identifying them. Maybe someone else can.

I see Model 19s, Colt New Services, and Webleys. Maybe even more. - Gunmaster45
Hey there, decided the Batman page needed building, I'll try to split up the revolver section when I get more info, thanks for your help. - Diego Wolfwood

Could the police revolvers be a Colt Offical Police or a Smith and Wesson Model 10?

More Trivia: I also noticed this SMG is used a lot by bad guys in many episodes of Batman: The Brave and the Bold which is again another reference to this movie. To top it all off, I'm going to assume that every gun seen in the hands of bad guys is either from the WW2/Korean War era or is fictional.

Krieghoff Model L flare pistol

The Joker uses this weapon to shoot his TV, then proceeds to hand it to Bob.

Its probably one of those WW2 Japanese double-barrel flare pistols. Or possibly a German one
