Police Python 357
The following firearms can be seen in Police Python 357 (1976):
Police Python 357 is a French film starring Yves Montand as Inspector Marc Ferrot. It is named after the eponymous revolver.
Handguns
Colt Python
The Python is displayed prominently throughout the film. We can see it from the main titles:
Ferrot (Yves Montand) trains at the range, using several different positions.
Ferrot (Yves Montand) uses the revolver in the final shootout, during the armored car robbery.
Note that, in this pic, the cylinder holes are not completely round. Maybe a blank gun was used in this scene.
SACM Model 1935A
Mathieu Carrière, as Inspector Ménard, uses a SACM Model 1935A pistol, although it is never seen well, and it is difficult to obtain a good vidcap.
MAB Model D
It is hard to be sure, but I think that the police officer standing behind the car carries a MAB Model D pistol.
Walther PPK
François Périer, as Commissaire Ganay, uses a Walther PPK.
Submachine gun
MAT-49
Both the police officers and the robbers use the MAT-49 SMG in the final shootout.
Carbine
M1 carbine
Another of the robbers in the final shootout uses a M1 Carbine.
Miscellaneous
M1911 pistol
At the beginning of the movie, we can see several long guns and handguns in a gun rack, in Ferrot’s house. The handgun at the left looks like a M1911. Note that the gun has a lanyard loop.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Another gun in the gun rack looks like a Smith & Wesson Model 10
Unidentified Firearms
Ferrot keeps a rifle, a shotgun and several handguns in a gun rack. The long guns are never seen well, and I cannot identify the handgun in the middle. Possibly it is a CZ 27.
Interesting Details
At the beginning of the movie, we see that Ferrot handloads his own ammo at his reloading bench.
He even casts his bullets.
