The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)
The Adventures of Ford Fairlane (1990)
Andrew Dice Clay as Ford Fairlane
Smith and Wesson Model 38 - .38 caliber
Comedian Andrew Dice Clay played the title character as Ford
Fairlane, a private eye whose main clientele worked in the Los
Angeles music industry. In the film, this Smith and Wesson pistol
was worn on Fairlane's retractable arm holster for a spring
assisted 
quick draw - a concept almost as ridiculous as the movie
itself.
