RE:Flare Pistol in Soldier Boyz
Thanks, glad I could help. When I found that page it was annoying me as well, as it is clearly real with a very distinctive design, but any search I did for flare pistols just came up with more conventional military style flare guns. It wasn't until I realised it was probably a cheap civilian thing and searched for "cheap flare pistol" and it came up on the first page. --commando552 (talk) 13:09, 20 June 2014 (EDT)

Revolver ID
I was going to suggesting bringing in JCordell, but great minds think alike. Since it's an older revolver, maybe Nyles as well. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:41, 24 August 2014 (EDT)
Revolver ID
Well it's more of a guess, but I like to think of it being an educated guess. I believe it's a Manurhin MR-73 with a 5" barrel.The cylinder release latch and the design of the hammer is consistent with the MR-73. However it is the model with the adjustable rear sights.The front sight is too high for the fixed sight model. It appears that the rear sight was removed - possibly the actor kept snagging the rear sight on his clothing and other things.
It is not a Korth revolver and it lacks the ventilated top rib of the Colt Python and Colt Diamondback. When the movie was made (1983) there were five ,commercial, mass-produced revolver models with full barrel length lugs. The S&W L frame .357 magnum (586/686/581/681), Colt Python, Colt Diamondback, Korth and Manurhin MR-73. The MR-73 comes closest to matching the lines of the revolver in those screencaps. Hope this helped.--Jcordell (talk) 17:52, 24 August 2014 (EDT)
- Well right now I have to say that the revolver in "Contraband" looks like it could be a Smith & Wesson Model 27 with the 3.5" barrel. It's a large framed revolver and has lines similar to the S&W N frame. Note that in the one screencap it's obvious that the cylinder does not fill the frame like it would on a Model 29 (44 Magnum) and the forcing cone is longer - like a Model 27/28. I have to go with the 27. Give me time on the other two. --Jcordell (talk) 11:24, 25 August 2014 (EDT)
