Arm in Arms

The plot involved some high-calibre weapon being stolen, anyone ID it yet?

It was ID'd in the show as a BNT-35, but had a thumb-hole stock like an H&K SL-8.

Glock 9mm

In a New Episode titled 'Cause and Effect', Don Eppes' Glock is stolen and used to kill Two Drug Dealers. Ballistics says it was a 9mm.

This may have been a Factual Error since Don uses a Glock 23 in .40 Smith & Wesson.

It is now mentioned in this Episode that Don now carries a Glock 19.

Also, I believe the FBI in real life uses a .40, however it's a Model 22.

From our own Glock 23 entry on the Glock page:
NOTE: Although the Glock 23 is an issue weapon for the FBI, this does not mean that characters who are FBI Agents in movies or TV shows necessarily use them. Hollywood's propmasters and armorers preferred, until recently, to use 9x19mm pistols, due to the difficulties of converting larger calibers to blank-fire. Consequently, there are almost no Glock 23s in movies or TV shows; if a character is supposed to be an FBI Agent, it is most likely that they are using a Glock 19, standing in for the Glock 23. IMFDB members have frequently made the assumption that any Glock used by an FBI Agent in a movie must be a .40-caliber model, even though (it bears repeating) the weapons used in movies do not always correspond to the weapons used by a particular law enforcement agency in real life. Unless you have good evidence, do not assume that a Glock pistol is a .40-caliber model, simply because the FBI uses this weapon in real life. When in doubt, it is usually safer to assume that the Glock in question is a 9mm model.
In other words, what the FBI uses in real life is irrelevant. -MT2008 17:54, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
