The following guns were used in the film The Shawshank Redemption:
Colt Detective Special
Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins) is seen loading up a Colt Detective Special while in a drunken state during a flashback at the begining of the film, on trial for killing his cheating wife and her lover. While he didn't do it, he threw the gun in the river, ruining his chance of proving his gun didn't commit the crime.
Colt New Service M1898
The attorney that questions Dufresne shows the jury a revolver for props effect, which is a Colt New Service M1898 in .38 caliber.
Winchester Model 12
Several of the prison guards of Shawshank are armed with Winchester Model 12 shotguns.
Winchester 1894
Several prison guards are seen armed with Winchester 1894 rifles.
M1928 Thompson
One of the prison guards is seen with a M1928 Thompson when the new inmates are drove in.
M1 Carbine
One of the officers searching for Dufresne after he escapes from prison is armed with an M1 Carbine.
M14
Captain Hadley (Clancy Brown) uses an M14 Rifle fitted with a scope to kill Tommy (Gil Bellows) when he tries to tell the prison that he knew the man who realy killed Dufresne's wife and lover. It is not likely an M21, since prisons aren't usually outfitted with Marine sniper weaponry. Since at the time this scene takes place, the M14 and M21 rifles were in frontline service with the U.S. Military, it is doubtful they would be issued to guards in some smalltown Maine prison.
Smith & Wesson Snubnose
Warden Norton (Bob Gunton) pulls a Smith & Wesson Snubnose revolver from his desk when the police try to break into his office to arrest him for tax fraud and murder. He loads up the gun with the intention of fighting them, but changes his mind and commits suicide instead.
