There was NO MARKING on them to indicate capacity and the only real way to check was to try to top them off with rounds, which of course, I would NOT have been allowed to do at the time.

Mal's Pistol
Mal's pistol was also carried over, but modified by a new prop house, for the film. - --James3 11:30, 27 February 2011 (UTC)
Looks more like a 1893 Bittner Repeating Pistol to me: http://www.horstheld.com/0-Bittner.htm David.
There was a pistol in the TV show based on the Bittner. http://www.urbanchant.com/vera/build/pistol_fin_1.jpg It was carried by a character named "Jubal Early", which if you know your civil war history is interesting.
That was my thought at first, but if you look at the two, Mal's pistol has more in common design-wise. Like the Bittner it is long, front heavy, has an octagonal barrel, and a forward removable, small magazine. Well the tv show pistol has a small magazine, they enlarged it for the movie. Jubal Early's pistol, is rather compact. David.
Other discussions
I like the new firearms shots, but this page is a mess. Please look at other IMFDB pages for proper formatting and captioning preferences. MoviePropMaster2008 06:08, 15 October 2009 (UTC)
Its been a while since I've seen the film but at some point they attach a cannon to Serenity and use it to piss off the space cannibals. What kind of cannon is that, or is it just a CG/prop thing?
- It looked like an Oerlikon 20mm AA gun. MoviePropMaster2008 09:07, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
- I thing it was a 40mm Bofors AAgun Rex095
- Pretty sure it was an Oerlikon. The bore is too small for a Bofors 40mm. --Charon68 17:07, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
It's a German Flack 38 20mm AA gun. I can't describe exactly why I think that, but look at a picture of the Flack38 and look at ship's gun and I think you'll agree.
Ok, i got a pic.
The gun in the movie
File:Flak 38 20mm.jpg The real thing.
Just a few odds n sods - Zo's Mares lag in the movie has a standard lever but in the firefly series has the enlarged 'flip cock' loop. This was probably as the original was sold, auctioned off, or used for another series. Also, the guy who Zoe takes the japanese pistol from at the start of the movie who then gets shot by mal and eaten by reavers is Glenn Howerton aka Dennis Reynolds from It's always Sunny in Philedelphia. Ok thats all folks - Captain Snikt
All guns from the Firefly series were sold off and purchased by one collector. The only weapon carried over from the series to the movie is Jayne's bowie knife as it was a production Ridge Runner Patrick Henry model with a custom sheath. - boogerv
