Revolvers

Smith & Wesson Military & Police

Bank guards (Red West and uncredited one) who take Toby Kwimper (Elvis Presley) for a robber carry Smith & Wesson Military & Police revolvers. Toby disarms one of the guards during this episode. During Toby's confrontation with mobsters, Carmine (Jack Kruschen) and hired gangsters from Detroit, Jack (Frank DeKova) and Pete (uncredited) are armed with same looking Smith & Wessons.
