Smith & Wesson Model 28 Highway Patrolman
Probably one of the earliest appearances of .357 Magnum revolver in a Hollywood movie. After Leon Poole (Wendell Corey) escapes from prison he acquires a Smith & Wesson Model 28 Highway Patrolman. The police officers remark on the fact that he has gotten hold of a gun better suited to kill elephants with. In one effective scene he uses it on his old Army sergeant. The movie was filmed in December 1954 and the Model 28 was introduced earlier that year. There is a strong possibility that this was the first appearance of the Model 28 in a movie.
