Red Heat is a 1988 Action film/comedy in which Arnold Schwarzenegger plays Soviet police officer Ivan Danko. His American partner is played by James Belushi. They work together to catch a powerful Soviet (Georgian) drug dealer, Viktor Rostavili. The movie was directed by Walter Hill (director), and written by Hill and Troy Kennedy Martin.
One of the guns used in this movie is a fake gun:
Podbyrin 9.2 mm
This is actually a modified Western Desert Eagle .357 Magnum. The Podbyrin does not exist and was made up as a prop for the movie to look more like a Soviet weapon.
BJT DA38
The "sleeve pistol" used by Ed O Ross. It was modified by Tim La France, who also modified the Desert Eagle, and made the sleeve device(A la Taxi Driver). The barrel of the derringer was cut off and a new one with a bore larger than a 12 gauge was machined, welded and blended into the original contours. File:Dankoavi 004847360.jpg

Smith & Wesson 29
One of the guns used by Danko is the Smith & Wesson Model 29. And in typical "Hollywood" Fashion, he fires eighteen shots out of the six shot revolver without reloading.
Taurus PT92
There are several Taurus PT92s in the movie:
Actually, I think it might be the similar PT99; in the first screencap, it looks like it might have the adjustable rear sight, but I can't really tell. Do you have another screencap showing the sight in better detail?
I think that you are right, and the gun is, indeed, a PT99. Sorry I don't have a better screencap
