(note: I had to add "(movie)" in the title, because there is also a "Getaway" page in the Video Games category. Hope this is OK).

Colt Government

The main sidearm of bank robber Carter 'Doc' McCoy (Steve McQueen) is a Colt Government. An M1911A1 also appears in the hand of his wife Carol (Ali MacGraw) when she shoots Benyon and during the hotel shootout.

A Star Model B is substituted for the Colt in scenes that require the pistol to be fired, as the Colt was not reliable with blanks.

Doc McCoy shoots Rudy with a Star Model B.

Colt Python

Rudy (Al Lettieri) carries a .357 Magnum Colt Python revolver.

Colt Trooper

In a continuity mistake of the movie, we see that Rudy's Colt Python is replaced for a Colt Trooper in one scene.

McCoy goes into a gun shop to buy a 12-gauge pump shotgun and is given this rarely-seen High Standard 8111 by the shopkeeper.

unidentified .38 Revolver

Carried by the bank guard. McCoy tells his bank robbery team that "the guard carries a .38."

Ruger Mark I Standard

When McCoy is in the gun shop, we can see briefly several guns, including a Ruger Mark I Standard, hanging on the wall (I think there is also a Colt Woodsman, but I am not really sure).
