'The following firearms can be seen in the film 48 Hrs.:
Smith & Wesson Model 29
A 4" barrel version Smith & Wesson Model 29 is the service handgun used by Det. Jack Cates (Nick Nolte), until it is stolen by Albert Ganz (James Remar).
S&W N-frame
At the beginning of the movie, Albert Ganz (James Remar) uses a blued S&W N-frame revolver. Although the handgun is never seen closely, it does not seem to have a heavy barrel, but a tapered one. Therefore, it should be a Model 24, 27 or 28, instead of a Model 29 or 25 (the "Mountain gun" version of the Model 29 had not been released in 1982).
Colt Single Action revolver
Billy Bear (Sonny Landham) uses a single action revolver. The front sight looks like the one used in the Colt New Frontier. However, the revolver used in the movie has fixed, not adjustable sights.
Colt Government
Det. Jack Cates (Nick Nolte) uses a Colt Government after his Model 29 is stolen.
Smith & Wesson Model 19
A 2.5"-barrel Smith & Wesson Model 19 is used by Reggie Hammond (Eddie Murphy) at the end of the movie.
