Sonny Wortzik (Al Pacino) uses a M1 Carbine as his main weapon during the bank robbery, sometimes handing it off to Sal when he would go to talk to the police outside. Since Sonny was a Vietnam veteran, it is possible this was an artifact from his war years. Several NYPD officers surrounding the bank also carry M1 Carbines, some with extended 30-round magazines.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingShortened Smith & Wesson M76 with removed stock - 9mm. The model shown is the same configuration as the one in the movie.
Sonny and Sal's partner Stevie (Gary Springer) carries a Colt Official Police during the bank robbery but hands it to Sonny when he realizes he can't go through with it. Several of the N.Y.P.D. uniformed officers also use the Colt Official Police during the stand-off.
FBI Agent Murphy (Lance Henriksen) draws what appears to be a Smith & Wesson Model 36 Chief's Special from a hidden compartment in the airport car in the finale. It looks to be the smaller framed J Frame rather than the mid-sized Model 10.
