Handguns

Merwin & Hulbert break-top revolver

Pete Clemenza (Bruno Kirby), in the 1917 flashback, carries a Merwin & Hulbert break-top revolver when he and Vito Corleone (Robert De Niro) break into his "friend's" house to steal a rug. Similar revolvers are also seen used by the Italian actor on stage and inside the gun bag Clemenza tosses to Vito. - I think it is a Merwin and Hulbert revolver of some kind. You can tell by the way the frame is set up.
