Indiana Jones, what can a person say when it comes to Indie. Flexin' a whip and some cool revolvers, or flexin' his hat and a Browning Hi-Power while killing evil Nazis and saving the world at the same time? I bet you can't go any cooler than that. Plus, Sean Connery is your father. The thing about Indie is that he was a fan of obscure revolvers, Colts, Smith&Wessons, etc. He once sported a sidearm - a Browning in the second movie and the internet doesn't know until this day where he kept it.
Indiana Jones' Gun
There were two primary revolvers used in Raiders of the Lost Ark. A Smith & Wesson 1917, chambered for .45 ACP and a a Smith & Wesson Hand Ejector Model 2. It is widely accepted that the Bapty was used in all the revolver shooting scenes. These, along with the mysterious Hi-Power were the pistols of choice for our adrenaline addicted archeologist. And to think that Harrison Ford almost declined the offer to play because he was contracted in a lot of movies directed by Spielberg and wanted to avoid being his go-to actor. What a loss that would be.
