Given the partial logo, maybe the revolver is a Taurus? --Funkychinaman (talk) 07:06, 29 February 2016 (EST)
- It is possible but I cannot find any 6-shot snub nose Taurus with target sigths that existed in 1991. Greg-Z (talk) 07:26, 29 February 2016 (EST)
- Maybe a Taurus Model 66 with 2.5" barrel? The barrel of the screen revolver seems to be a little longer... or maybe not. Greg-Z (talk) 13:05, 29 February 2016 (EST)
