Fort Apache, The Bronx is a 1981 drama starring Paul Newman as an NYPD cop who has to deal with working in one of the toughest precincts in the city.
The following firearms we can seen in Fort Apache, The Bronx:
Smith & Wesson Model 10
The Smith & Wesson Model 10 was the standard service revolver of the NYPD for many years and is used by several officers in the film, including Officer Murphy (Paul Newman) and Officer Morgan (Danny Aiello), who uses the version with the light, tapered barrel.
Colt Detective Special
When Murphy (Paul Newman) and his partner Corelli (Ken Wahl) work a plainclothes assignment, they carry a Colt Detective Special with an exposed ejector rod. (pre-1972 version)
Colt Detective Special (nickel)
A nickeled Colt Detective Special 2 in. snub revolver is seen used by Charlotte (Pam Grier) at the beginning of the film and appears to be the same gun pulled by a drug dealer in the hospital hostage situation.
Colt M1911A1
Officer Finley (John Aquino) is briefly seen racking the slide of an M1911A1 that he says he's carrying as a backup weapon having hearing that two officers were shot.
M1 Carbine
Officers at the precinct armed with the M1 Carbine are seen taking positions atop the roof of the precinct when protesters assemble outside.
Federal M201-Z Grenade Launcher
Officers disperse the crowd with tear gas fired from Federal M201-Z Grenade Launchers during the protest in front of the precinct.
