His sight "shifted", which can happen with fixed sights. You install fixed sights into a grove in the slide. It's a very tight fit, and not all guns pin the fixed sights into place, so it is very possible the rear sight or the front sight was shifted right or left a little, and was not flush with the slide. - James3 | |||

Yeah, I don't understand it, either. I mean, sure the .38 Special is a longer round, but that won't matter much, especially since he's using a snub-nosed revolver, and the .45 is a much wider round, giving it more stopping power.

Isn't it possible that Tango might not wanna kill with his guns? Taking someone dead isn't as good as taking them alive, so he might you the Detonics as an emergency backup, while the S&W 36 makes his normal shots. [[User:Dannysaysnoo|Dannysaysnoo]] 23:58, 10 July 2010 | |||
I think, perhaps, it is more likely that since he is often undercover, his S&W 36 is his 'quick draw' gun and the larger, more powerful .45 Scoremaster is his deep concealment backup gun. | |||
