The following firearms were used in the film Harlem Nights:

A seven-year-old Quick (Desi Arnez Hines II) uses Sugar Ray's Single Action Army (which appears to have a sawn barrel) to fatally shoot a toothless gambler (Ji-Tu Cumbuka) in the opening 1918 flashback.

Smith & Wesson Model 36

Quick (Eddie Murphy) draws a Smith & Wesson Model 36 from an ankle holster during his fight with Vera (Della Reese), using it to shoot her in the foot when she draws a razor. (The use of the Model 36, developed in 1950, is anachronistic for a scene set in 1938).
