==Winchester Model 1897==
==Winchester Model 1912==
The [[Winchester Model 1897]] is called the "long barreled shotgun" in the game, though it actually lacks the exposed hammer of the M1897. It has a strange reloading scheme: despite being pump-action, you can fire 2 shots before you have to actually pump it. As one would expect from the "shotgun" of the game, this gun does nice work at close range shootouts. The shot gun can be upgraded to a "Street Sweeper" which has a 10 round drum and has rapid fire. However, despite being an obvious reference to the real-life Street-Sweeper shotgun - which also fires rapidly from a drum - this is not the same weapon, as it looks significantly different, and the real Street-Sweeper was first invented and designed much later on.

Note: From the picture it could be the Winchester Model 12 instead, which is basically a 1897 with no exposed hammer.  Can someone double check this?

The Godfather (2006)

The following guns were used in the video game The Godfather:


Colt Detective Special

Called just the "Snubnose" in the game, the Colt Detective Special can be bought as the Saturday night special" which has gold plating and an ivory handle. It is said to be the most silent and the weakest of the handguns in the game. An enhanced version of this revolver called the Black Widow can be added on.

Colt M1911A1

The M1911A1 is called just "Pistol" in the game. There is an Assassin version of this pistol that can be picked up by a gun merchant. It is given black paint and kills with one shot. The original holds 8 rounds. The extended level 2 gun holds 10 and the Assassins carries 14 rounds. This gun is more of a Browning Hi-Power then a Colt M1911A1 when it becomes the assassins pistol. The level 4 version is called the Herzstopper and can be added on.

Colt Official Police

The Colt Official Police is called "Magnum" in the game. In reality this gun fires .38 Special just like the "Snubnose". The Lvl 4 Magnum is called the Annihilator.

It is said to rival the "Shotgun" in power in the game. This can be upgraded to the "Python" which is gold plated with an ivory handle, has 8 rounds and is much more powerful.

Colt M1921A Thompson

The gun omnipresent in any mobster movie/game, the Thompson Submachine Gun is called inside the game only by it's nickname, "Tommy Gun". It inaccurately carries only 25 rounds, when in reality the drum magazine houses a plentiful 50 rounds. A Tommy gun can be bought with a 50 round drum and another version can be bought with a 75 round stick mag which is inaccurate. There is a version called the Dillinger, it has a 20 round drum and has a removed butt stock. This is a reference to John Dillinger. The gun itself resembles a Colt M1921A Thompson due to it self being non-compensator.

Winchester Model 1912

The Winchester Model 1912 is called the "long barreled shotgun" in the game, though it actually lacks the exposed hammer of the M1897. It has a strange reloading scheme: despite being pump-action, you can fire 2 shots before you have to actually pump it. As one would expect from the "shotgun" of the game, this gun does nice work at close range shootouts. The shot gun can be upgraded to a "Street Sweeper" which has a 10 round drum and has rapid fire. However, despite being an obvious reference to the real-life Street-Sweeper shotgun - which also fires rapidly from a drum - this is not the same weapon, as it looks significantly different, and the real Street-Sweeper was first invented and designed much later on.
