Jimmy Conway ([[Robert De Niro]]) is first seen using a [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]] to fire into the trunk of a car. Henry Hill ([[Ray Liotta]]) later pistol-whips Bruce (Mark Evan Jacobs) with a snub nosed [[Smith & Wesson Model 36]], which he gives to Karen ([[Lorraine Bracco]]) to hide. Tommy DeVito ([[Joe Pesci]]) keeps a Model 36 snub as his personal weapon, notably using it to beat Billy Batts ([[Frank Vincent]]) and wounding Spider ([[Michael Imperioli]]).  During the poker games, both Tommy's Model 36 snub and his M1911A1 can be seen with the Model 36 snub tucked into his left waist band and the M1911A1 hanging from his right side. This is accurate as the real Tommy DeSimmone was known as "Two Gun" Tommy (for obvious reasons).

Revolvers

Smith & Wesson Model 36 Snub

At the film's beginning, Jimmy Conway (Robert De Niro) is seen using a Smith & Wesson Model 36 to fire into the trunk of a car. Henry Hill (Ray Liotta) later pistol-whips Bruce (Mark Evan Jacobs) with a snub-nosed Smith & Wesson Model 36 with a square butt, which he gives to Karen (Lorraine Bracco) to hide. Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) keeps a Model 36 snub as his personal weapon, notably using it to beat Billy Batts (Frank Vincent) and wounding Spider (Michael Imperioli). During the poker games, both Tommy's Model 36 snub and his M1911A1 can be seen with the Model 36 snub tucked into his left waist band and the M1911A1 hanging from his right side. This is accurate as the real Tommy DeSimmone was known as "Two Gun" Tommy (for obvious reasons).

This revolver also appears to be the one held by Tommy at the film's end. Director Martin Scorsese said in an interview that this was a reference to the film The Great Train Robbery.

Smith & Wesson Model 64 Snub

Karen Hill (Lorraine Bracco) wakes Henry (Ray Liotta) up from a nap with a snub-nosed Smith & Wesson Model 64 in his face after finding out he's been cheating on her. It is clearly marked as .38 Special on the barrel. Its use is an anachronism as the scene is set before its introduction in 1981.

Smith & Wesson Model 60

In some shots of Karen Hill (Lorraine Bracco) holding the gun on Henry, it turns into a Smith & Wesson Model 60 as noted by its 5-round cylinder. Henry then takes it from her and threatens her with it.

Colt Commander

Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) uses a suppressed Colt Combat Commander when entering the apartment of Stacks Edwards (Samuel L. Jackson). An unsuppressed Colt Commander is seen later in the film.

Highlight for Spoilers: Tommy puts the suppressed Colt Commander to the head of Stacks Edwards (Samuel L. Jackson). Note the shorter 4.25 inch slide compared to a standard M1911’s 5 inch slide and rounded hammer. When the Commander is fired, the hammer is seen dropping, but the pistol’s slide doesn't cycle, likely because the firearm was unloaded and special effects spray was added offscreen. This was done because firing blanks at any person this range is extremely dangerous.

Tommy DeVito (Joe Pesci) is seen in super slo-mo firing the suppressed Colt Commander repeatedly. The Commander’s 4.25 inch slide is better visible here proving that it’s not the same M1911A1 from earlier. Since the actor being fired at isn't visible in the frame (and thus, out of harm's way from blank fire), the gun here recoils as Tommy fires it.
