Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) pistol-whips Bruce (Mark Evan Jacobs) with a snub nosed Smith & Wesson Model 36, which he gives to Karen (Lorraine Bracco) to hide. Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) keeps a Model 36 snub as his personal weapon, notably using it during the killing of Billy Batts (Frank Vincent) and wounding Spider (Michael Imperioli). Jimmy Conway (Robert De Niro) uses a Model 36 snub to fire the fatal bullets into Billy Batts. During the poker games, both Tommy's Model 36 snub and his M1911A1 can be seen with the Model 36 snub tucked into his left waist band and the M1911A1 hanging from his right side. This is accurate as the real Tommy DeSimmone was known as "Two Gun" Tommy (for obvious reasons).
Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) uses this M1911A1 style pistol to kill Spider (Michael Imperioli) in the bar card game scene. He later seen carrying a suppressed M1911A1 with a Commander-style hammer when entering the apartment of Stacks Edwards (Samuel L. Jackson).
