In the book, Marv identifies Ava's revolver as a .32, and states that Dwight would not be alive had she used a "real" gun. Can anyone confirm if the Charter Arms Undercover actually is a .38 Special, or if it's a .32 S&W, or even an Undercoverette, like the book claims? --[[User:Maxman|Maxman]] ([[User talk:Maxman|talk]]) 22:30, 2 September 2014 (EDT) | |||

Re-checking the images and re-watching the film recently, I've come with the following - 1) I believe Nancy's S&W is actually a nickel [[Smith & Wesson Model 14|Model 14]] standing in for the previous Model 29, given the overall size, the front sight, what appears to be a gap at the cylinder and the fact it also has a simple socket for the ejector rod without shroud. 2) Roark's Glock is actually a G19, note the rather short slide (it's better visible in other shots in the film, maybe I can grab a cap or two to show this next I get a chance). 3) The Mossberg 590 Cruiser is actually a Winchester 1300, noted by the particular receiver shape (especially at the back-end where it connects with the pistol grip). --[[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 22:02, 23 August 2016 (EDT) | |||
:Good point. That does look a Model 14. I'll make that change. --[[User:Maxman|Maxman]] ([[User talk:Maxman|talk]]) 17:11, 26 September 2016 (EDT) | |||
