TCM had the movie on Saturday with Steve McQueen playing SFPD Lt. Frank Bullitt. Always thought it a blue, 2.5", Colt Python yet considerable research has yielded that it was the little sister, a .38 Special, Colt Diamondback with Detective Special grips. Besides the actual shooting scene, there are several other short views, including static holstered looks at the very end which aren't very helpful. Anyone have any documented information by chance? Thanks!
