|

|
| == SIG-Sauer P220 ==
| | '''''Miami Vice''''' is the iconic 80's television crime drama that starred [[Don Johnson]] and [[Philip Michael Thomas]] as detectives in the Miami-Dade Police Department who work undercover to root out the criminal elements working throughout the city. The series broke new ground in television for its visual style as well as its innovative use of popular music in each episode and was well known for the casting of several future stars including [[Bruce Willis]], [[Julia Roberts]], [[Vincent D'Onofrio]], [[Liam Neeson]], and [[Wesley Snipes]]. ''Miami Vice'' also featured the debut of many firearms that are now commonplace in the films and television today, such as the [[Beretta 92FS]] and the [[Glock 17]]. The executive producer of the series mostly credited with its look was [[Michael Mann]], who went on to direct the [[Miami Vice (2006)|the 2006 feature film adaptation]] that starred [[Colin Farrell]] and [[Jamie Foxx]]. |
| Don Johnson uses a [[SIG-Sauer P220 pistol series#SIG P220|SIG-Sauer P220]] in the pilot episode of the show. Considering that the pilot episode was filmed in the spring of 1984 the model used would most likely have been a first generation "American" model. | | |
|
| |
|
| :Nope. The improved "American" model (with the 1911-style mag release that was introduced on the P226) didn't come out until 1986-87. All P220s available in 1984 (when the Pilot was filmed) would have had the heel-clip magazine release.

|
| |
|
| Sonny Crockett ([[Don Johnson]]) uses a [[Bren Ten]] in the first and second seasons of the show. It was essentially a beefed-up CZ75 chambered for the original 10mm Norma Auto cartridge wich differs slightly in case length from later 10mm rounds.
| |
| This round was HOT, and consequently damaged the guns. In the 80's this was a new cartridge,but rarely used in modern day. The company of Dornaus& Dixon was an ill-fated one, and since the producers of the Miami Vice-series would not use discontinued guns, it was replaced with the S&W 645 auto pistol

| == [[Dan Wesson Model 15 Revolver]] ==
| |
| A 6-inch barrel version of this revolver is used by Edward James Olmos as Lt. Castillo in most episodes. The Dan Wesson revolvers had veny ribs and the cylinder release was in front of the cylinder, above the trigger guard. Assuming that the revolver was a .357 magnum it would have been a Model 15 since it had adjustable sights. The Dan Wesson Model 14 had fixed or "service" sights.
