Lowdownfilmbuff: /* Unidentified Snubnose Revolver */

In light of the new ''Nikita'' series should we rename this page ''Nikita (1990)''?

==Unidentified Snubnose Revolver==
It appears to be a ROHM/RG Revolver. Without a better pic I cannot be sure, however I was doing some work on the Split Second Pistols over at The RPF and we IDed that one of the base pistols was a ROHM Pistol and this appears similar.[[User:Mark in tx|Mark in tx]] ([[User talk:Mark in tx|talk]]) 03:57, 18 November 2012 (EST)
:Indeed. Let me introduce IMFDB to Rohm RG-20 revolver. I'm adding. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 22:33, 18 December 2013 (EST)

::Sorry, but I have to disagree. The screen revolver has completly different front sight and grip. Maybe it's some Rohm model but not an RG-20. [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 01:14, 19 December 2013 (EST)
:::Front sight and grip, actually can be changed by a factory later, it happens often with Smith and Wesson revolvers, may have happened with RG-20, especially since Röhm's are somewhat cheap and chaotic... What puzzled me more when I have seen new screenshots is the fact that cylinder is also slightly different, which is more rare feature for same models. It can also be 14S but I'm not sure... --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 06:49, 19 December 2013 (EST)

:As for me, RG-14S fits better. [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 07:03, 19 December 2013 (EST)
:: The 14S appears to be more consistent. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 17:17, 19 December 2013 (EST)
::: The revolver is not a Rohm revolver. I think it looks more like a Bruni Olympic 6. The size of the cylinder, the shape of the grip and front site match up make me think its a bruni instead of a Rohm. --[[User:Lowdownfilmbuff|Lowdownfilmbuff]] ([[User talk:Lowdownfilmbuff|Lowdownfilmbuff]]) 11:01, 22 March 2015 (PDT)
