What kind of gun did Hawk have?

In the Spenser: For Hire TV series, what kind of gun did Hawk use? I'm referring to the big silver revolver that he would pull out of his coat. What kind of gun is that?
And Spenser favored a .38, right?

This image shows Spencer with a Beretta 92 Centurion 9mm Para and what looks to be a Smith & Wesson Model 29 .44 Mag.
ISTR Hawk using an 8" Colt Python .357 in many episodes but haven't had a great deal of luck finding any pics. The Python has an excellent reputation and has distinct ribbing along the top of the barrel. Looking at the picture linked above should help ID.

Best answer: My apologies - I have just seen an un-edited version of that image - Spenser has a Beretta 92S (the frame is shortened in the edit hence my misidentification) and Hawk definitely has the S & W Model 29 with a 6" barrel.
Still recall him using a Python in the show...
