”I’m too old for this s**t!”
Detective Roger Murtaugh's (Danny Glover) Smith & Wesson revolver from Richard Donner's 1987 buddy-cop action films Lethal Weapon and Lethal Weapon 2.

Two seemingly mis-matched cops are partnered together to take down a powerful drug smuggling syndicate.

Murtaugh carried his sidearm throughout Lethal Weapon as he and his partner Martin Riggs (Mel Gibson) investigated the mysterious death of a young woman. Murtaugh also used his pistol in Lethal Weapon 2 during his investigation of South African politicians smuggling gold and drugs into the USA, using his revolver to ‘revoke’ Arjen Rudd's (Joss Ackland) diplomatic immunity at the climax of the movie.

This Smith & Wesson Model 19, chambered in a .357 Magnum calibre, features a four-inch barrel and wooden pistol grip. The black rubber grip used during the production was replaced with a wooden one after the films wrapped. It has been sympathetically and permanently deactivated, with a functioning cylinder, cylinder release, trigger and hammer. The barrel and cylinder have been blocked as part of the deactivation process.

The revolver has some wear from production use and age. There is some scuffing and scratching, most notably around the barrel, and some of the metal has become slightly tarnished. There are small chips in the wooden handle. Accompanying the lot is a copy of the rental agreement between Stembridge Gun Rentals, Inc and Warner Bros. and Lethal Weapon 2 Productions, as well as the weapon's deactivation certificate.

Materials: Ferrous Metals, Wood.
