The combat ship is a US Coast Guard Jarvis (WHEC-725). Its main gun, seen on the screenshot, is a 76.2mm OTO Melara. Greg-Z (talk) 15:42, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- No, the Hamilton-class (and the Jarvis) received the 76.2mm OTO Melara as part of an upgrade, but were originally armed with (as shown in the screenshot) a 5"/38 caliber gun. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:47, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- The Mark 30 mount was an odd choice, it seemed like an outdated mount even in the sixties, when the Hamilton-class debuted. Perhaps these were leftover mounts from unbuild WWII destroyers. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:51, 4 September 2018 (EDT)
- Absolutely right about the CG cutter there, FCM. That indeed has the original pre-retrofit 5"/38 Mk 30 - Not sure about why those as I agree those were old even at the time of the building/commissioning of the Hamilton class but maybe I can shed some light on that next time I gander at my old Norman Polmar/Ships and Aircraft book I got.
As for the other IDs, the S&W Model 25 is most certainly not that, guns are too small to be N-frames. Half of them don't even look to be Smiths at all but have the silver grip medallions and exposed eject rods indicative of Colts (revolver 2 1 and 4 1 images). 4-1 definitely looks to be a mid-size Colt, an Official Police or Police Positive. The revolver in 'firearms 1_1' looks to be another Model 19 Snub while revolver 7 1 and 7 3 looks to be a 4" Model 19. StanTheMan (talk) 21:13, 4 September 2018 (EDT)- I have a strong feeling that all 1911s are of same model, possibly even the same prop reused as only a single pistol is seen at any time. Thick wooden grips of Kobayashi's pistol look similar enough to Rock Island Armory 1911 while Bruni 1911 has different grips. Greg-Z (talk) 09:51, 5 September 2018 (EDT)
