Police Python 357 is a French film starring Yves Montand , as inspector Marc Ferrot, which is named after the eponymous revolver.
Guns seen in the movie:
Colt Python
The Python is displayed prominently throughout the film. We can see it from the main titles:
Ferrot (Montand) trains at the range, using several stands.
Montand uses the revolver in the final shootout, during the armored car robbery.
Note that, in this pic, the cylinder holes are not completely round. Maybe a blank gun was used in this scene.
MAB 1935
Mathieu Carrière, as inspector Ménard uses a MAB 1935 pistol, although it is never seen well, and it is difficult to obtain a good vidcap.
MAT-49
Both the police officers and the robbers use the MAT-49 SMG in the final shootout.
MAB model D?
It is hard to be sure, but I think that the police officer standing behind the car carries a MAB model D pistol.
M1 carbine
Another of the robbers in the final shootout uses a M1 carbine
Walther PPK
François Périer, as Commissaire Ganay, uses a Walther PPK
M1911 pistol?
At the beginning of the movie, we can see several long guns and handguns in a gun rack, in Ferrot’s house. The handgun at the left looks like a M1911. Note that the gun has a lanyard loop.
Smith & Wesson Model 10
Another gun in the gun rack looks like a Smith & Wesson Model 10
Unknown guns
Ferrot keeps a rifle, a shotgun and several handguns in a gun rack. The long guns are never seen well, and I cannot identify the handgun in the middle (it is probably a French handgun).
Trivia
At the beginning of the movie, we see that Ferrots handloads his own ammo in his reloading bench.
He even casts his bullets.
