Name that Revolver

Any clues what this is? The pic is from the first episode of Breaking Bad. The revolver was all metallic/chrome looking (except for the black grip), had an excessively long barrel, and had very clean and smooth lines.

Anybody know what type?

The photo is kind of bad, but it could be a 6 or 8in Colt Python, King Cobra, or Anaconda in stainless or nickel. It looks to have the famous Colt ridge along the top of the barrel.

I decided that it was definitely a S&W. I really don't think that, even with the HD version, I could figure out which model. The gun was large, and looked quite a bit like the massive S&W 500. This was just a curiosity for me, and I found out what I wanted to.

 

If I ever own a gun, it will be an oversized nickel revolver - like that model 17 or 500 (not that I could handle it).

IMFDB says that a Ruger SP101 is in the show at some point, though they don't specify where. I know nothing of Ruger revolvers so I can't comment one way or the other.

After Googling the SP101, I'm pretty sure the gun you pictured isn't that.
