This movie takes place in 1975 right? Then why the hell does Carlito have a Beretta 92F, the only model available was the 92 at the time (and it JUST came out). Maybe the description on my channel guide got it wrong, though. I only saw the gunfight in the bar, so I never heard if the movie actually DOES take place in '75. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]] | This movie takes place in 1975 right?

This movie takes place in 1975 right? Then why the hell does Carlito have a Beretta 92F, the only model available was the 92 at the time (and it JUST came out). Maybe the description on my channel guide got it wrong, though. I only saw the gunfight in the bar, so I never heard if the movie actually DOES take place in '75. - Gunmaster45

Vinnie isn't using a 1911, he has a Browning HP or a Makarov or something. ~Yournamehere
It's not a Makarov. Look at the length at the barrel. It is a 1911. And it doesn't look like a Browning HP at all. User: Colt
Yournamehere the 1911 used it's clearly a Auto Ordnance because has the slanted grooves on the slide. You can see well in this shot:
