Thanks, and I can't wait to see your newest articles. Yea, I heard that's one thing Hotel Rawanda is infamous for, and want to know something else. A teacher in my school had her class watch that movie just before Christmas break, Wierd.--[[User:Alienqueen11|Alienqueen11]] 06:02, 8 November 2008 (UTC) | Thanks, and I can't wait to see your newest articles.

Hmmm, this makes me wish I hadn't deleted the old picture of the two-tone P226. The one in the movie is a newer production P226 with a milled slide, whereas the one we have now is the older production model with the stamped slide. | |||
I see what you mean, oh well. It shouldn't make too much of a difference, it's still the same gun overall. | |||
:Yeah, I guess. Also, it's pretty rare to see the milled ones in movies. Even though the stamped-slide P226s have not been produced for over 10 years, most of the movies being made even today still use them, just because armorers don't rush out to replace something they already have in inventory when the difference between old and new versions amounts to minor design changes. That's also why you see older-model Taurus PT92s, Gen 2 Glocks, etc. in many movies. | |||

I see, that makes sense, and there's nothing like the classic versions. That's how they modify guns to fire Blanks? I'll have to look for that in other movies, and yea it looks like he did overdo the filing, it looks like a good amount of the top of the chamber is gone. | |||
:Yeah, some pistols need to have the top of the barrel filed down in order to function reliably with blanks. Most of the P220 series do, and so do H&K USPs, I believe. | |||

I was going to upload The Quick and the Dead but I'll wait till tommorow so I don't steal your thunder. Good work so far. -GM
Finished, how does it look now?--Alienqueen11 05:16, 8 November 2008 (UTC)
- Excellent work, I love the armorer specials. I find it kind of cool how Al gets to have these little cameos in movies. I'll have TQATD done tommorow. I just finished watching Hotel Rwanda, damn that movie is depressing. I'll have that screencapped too soon. -GM
