Colt Detective Special

It appears that the other two detectives who work for Bullitt, Delgetti (Don Gordon) and Stanton (Carl Reindel), are carrying the Colt Detective Special. Either the 1st or 2nd generation with the exposed ejector rod.

Winchester Model 1897

The two hitmen (Bill Hickman and Paul Genge) who kill the Ross impersonator (Felice Orlandi) and later shoot at Bullitt from the Charger during the famous car chase use a Winchester Model 1897. The Model 1897 was designed by John Browning and had an exposed hammer like a lever action rifle. The version used by the blonde haired hitman (Paul Genge) is what is known as a “takedown” model. After he shoots the Ross impersonator you can see it taken down when he seperates the barrel/magazine from the receiver. It appears the hitman’s model has had the stock and the barrel cut down, the barrel to at least 18". The shotgun seems to be a 12 gauge, but there is no way to make certain of its actual gauge.
