M1911A1

Many of the Harlem gangsters in the film use M1911A1s. Whispers (Paul Benjamin) carries two, one on each hip, that he draws several times. Dutch Schultz (Tim Roth) and his bodyguard, Lulu Rosencrantz (Ed O'Ross) both carry 1911s, one of which is eventually used by Lulu to shoot his boss in the Palace Chop House bathroom.

It looks like Schultz's 1911 is a Series 70, which would not have existed back then, so its presence in the movie is an anachronism.
