I'm not sure this page is eligible for inclusion. It may be rotoscoped, but there's very little detail in the weapons, so little, I can only make one positive ID.

: I agree, if we're not going to allow animated series with crudely drawn weapons, this one looks like it shouldn't be included. Because none of the weapons were readily identified and unless there are behind the scenes shots showing the actor holding a prop weapon, I would lean towards not allowing this one. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 16:43, 9 March 2014 (EDT) | : I agree, if we're not going to allow animated series with crudely drawn weapons, this one looks like it shouldn't be included.

Extra Screenshots
Glock and service pistol
Arctor's pistol definitely looks like a Beretta, probably a 92FS. The Glock looks smaller than the 17, soooo G19? --PyramidHead (talk) 14:22, 9 March 2014 (EDT)
I'm not sure this page is eligible for inclusion. It may be rotoscoped, but there's very little detail in the weapons, so little, I can only make one positive ID. (Bob Arctor's pistol appears to be a Beretta 92FS, and even that changes in the very next screenshot.)

- I agree, if we're not going to allow animated series with crudely drawn weapons, this one looks like it shouldn't be included. Because none of the weapons were readily identified and unless there are behind the scenes shots showing the actor holding a prop weapon, I would lean towards not allowing this one. --Ben41 (talk) 16:43, 9 March 2014 (EDT)
- Technically, we do allow animated series in some cases (i.e. Archer), and since this movie was rotoscoped, we can safely assume that there was a propmaster who brought real blank-adapted weapons to the set for the actors to handle. Arctor's pistol is indeed a Beretta 92FS, as far as I can tell, and that cop is definitely using a Glock. I think that level of certainty is enough to warrant inclusion. -MT2008 (talk) 22:16, 10 March 2014 (EDT)
