movie " The Painted Vail"
I recently saw this picture, I can´t find it in the imfdb listing.
In the movie, appears a chinese guard, using a handgun I would like to identify. Curiously, not much seen, it carries a pistol in a wooden shoulder holster ( very similar to the old Mausers or Lugers ), attached to his uniform´belt.
My friends, the page imfdb is more than excelent, allowing me to learn ( and understand ) a lot.
Best regards,
The film is actually titled "The Painted Veil", and would appear on the site if someone made a page for it. --Ben41 16:58, 4 July 2011 (CDT)
