The pistol has been modified slightly to have a more open-ended front than the ones seen in such previously Canadian-produced sci-fi series as ''[[Stargate: Atlantis]]'' and ''[[Sliders]]'' and this particular modification was previously the firing hero gun for the [[David Hasselhoff]] television movie ''[[Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.]]'' | ||

Almost Human is a 2013 science fiction television series executive-produced by J.J. Abrams. Set in 2048, the series follows LAPD detective John Kennex (Karl Urban), who has developed strong hatred for robots after losing his partner and being left for dead in an ambush by an LAPD combat android. Per the LAPD's requirements that all human officers are required to have a synthetic partner, Kennex is paired up with an older model android DRN, or Dorian (Michael Ealy), that is capable of human emotions and feelings. The series aired for 13 episodes until 2014.
The following weapons appear in the series Almost Human:

Pistols
"Timecop Beretta" (Taurus PT99)
Reinhardt (Tim Kelleher) uses a dressed-up Taurus PT99 during the pilot episode (S01E01). This pistol is a modified "Timecop Beretta" (as the name suggests, the "Timecop Beretta" was originally built up for the 1994 sci-fi film Timecop.) The pistol has been modified slightly to have a more open-ended front than the ones seen in such previously Canadian-produced sci-fi series as Stargate: Atlantis and Sliders and this particular modification was previously the firing hero gun for the David Hasselhoff television movie Nick Fury: Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D.
Taurus PT92AF
Starting in "Skin" (S01E02), LAPD detective John Kennex (Karl Urban) carries as his sidearm a Taurus PT92AF dressed up in a futuristic shell. Although it is similar to the "Timecop Beretta", it is a new design. Urban liked the look of Reinhardt's pistol and asked for something similar. A cavity was built into the shell to accommodate a laser module. (The base pistol does not have an accessory rail.) The original grip panels were rosewood; Urban requested something darker, so dark walnut was used.
Zoraki 925
LAPD Detective John Kennex (Karl Urban) and android Dorian (Michael Ealy), and Detective Richard Paul (Michael Irby) carry slightly customized Zoraki 925s fitted with laser sights as their sidearms in the series, altough Kennex switches to the modified Taurus PT92AF in "Skin" (S01E02).
