Blank-Firing – Bruni New .380 Revolver – .38 Special Style – Nickel Finish – 3" Barrel

The Blank-Firing Bruni New .380 Revolver – 3" Nickel is a professional replica firearm designed for film, television, stage productions, reenactment, and training use. Styled after a classic .38 Special revolver, this model combines a bright, camera-friendly finish with a slightly extended barrel length, making it well suited for productions that require a clear, readable revolver profile on screen. This revolver features a top-firing, fully blocked barrel, meaning the barrel itself is completely obstructed and does not allow gas to exit through the muzzle. When fired, expanding gases vent upward through the top of the frame rather than forward. This top-firing design is commonly used in theatrical environments and allows for controlled blank discharge without an open barrel, particularly valuable in close-quarters scenes and stage settings. Operating in double-action, the Bruni New .380 may be fired by pulling the trigger or by manually cocking the hammer. The 5-shot swing-out cylinder with locking mechanism provides traditional revolver handling and visual authenticity, especially important for close-ups and mid-range shots. The 3" barrel length offers a slightly longer silhouette than compact snub-style revolvers, improving visual balance and readability on camera while remaining versatile for handheld performance. Finished in bright nickel, this variant reflects light cleanly under stage and studio lighting, making it a strong choice for productions that want a polished, classic revolver look. Manufactured in Italy by Bruni, the New .380 is constructed from durable Zamak alloy with soft-touch polymer grip panels, delivering a balanced feel without the weight of a live-fire firearm.
