48 Hrs. is the 1982 action film that launched the film career of Eddie Murphy. Directed by Walter Hill, the film has Murphy starring as Reggie Hammond, a convict who is released from prison for 48 hours to assist SFPD Inspector Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) in tracking down an escaped prisoner who has a past with Hammond and has stolen Cates' gun. The sequel Another 48 Hrs. was released in 1990.
The following firearms were used in the film 48 Hrs.:
Smith & Wesson Model 29
A 4" barrel version Smith & Wesson Model 29 is the service handgun used by Inspector Jack Cates (Nick Nolte), until it is stolen by Albert Ganz (James Remar).
Smith & Wesson Model 27/28 N-frame
At the beginning of the movie, Albert Ganz (James Remar) uses a blued Smith & Wesson Model 27 / 28 N-frame revolver. Although the handgun is never seen closely, it does not seem to have a heavy barrel, but a tapered one. Therefore, it should be a Model 24, 27 or 28, instead of a Model 29 or 25 (the "Mountain gun" version of the Model 29 had not been released in 1982).
Smith & Wesson Model 15
Breaking up the fight between Jack and Reggie, an SFPD Patrol Officer (Chris Mulkey) deploys a Smith & Wesson Model 15.
Smith & Wesson Model 19 (Snub)
A 2.5" barrel Smith & Wesson Model 19 is used by Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) at the end of the movie.
Smith & Wesson Model 36
Casey (Margot Rose) is seen holding a Smith & Wesson Model 36 when Cates busts into her apartment.
Smith & Wesson Model 60
Detective Algren (Jonathan Banks) carries a Smith & Wesson Model 60, that he tries to use on Billy Bear after being shot.
Colt New Frontier
During the hotel shootout, Billy Bear (Sonny Landham) uses what appears to be a Colt New Frontier revolver with fixed sights instead of adjustable sights.
Colt Government
Inspector Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) uses a Colt Government after his Model 29 is stolen.
Colt New Service
Luther (David Patrick Kelly) carries a Colt New Service revolver as he's chased by Cates. Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) takes the revolver away when Luther runs into a car door.
Jennings pistol
In the cowboy bar, Reggie Hammond takes a Jennings pistol off one of the patrons while frisking him.

An Ithaca 37 shotgun is carried by one of the guards at the beginning of the film. An SFPD officer is seen holding an Ithaca as well.
