Oh that's not fair. I identifed the shotgun as a Remington also. The only thing that I found puzzling was that the screencap shows a slug shotgun in the actor's hands. But I guess in England the television and movie companies get what they can. If that means an Remington 870 Express doubles as a conventional smoothbore then so be it. | Oh that's not fair.

::Okay Mister sensitive feelings! ;) I said I '''also''' confirm, i.e. I concur with your original guess. You seemed a little noncommital, so I was concurring and stating out right that it was '''definitely''' an 870. ;) MPM2008 | |||
I agree with you about England. I own a Webley Mk VI, three Lee-Enfields and I just recently purchased a Webley Mk IV in 38/200 that I got for a very resonable price. The local Cabelas has a Holland & Holland Royal Ejector in 12 gauge that I drool over whenever I'm in the store. The country used to have such a strong shooting tradition and great gun makers.

The shotguns
If anyone can help identify them, I'd be extremely grateful. Chef Brian Vrooom 21:50, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
It's really hard to say who made the shotguns. They appear to have boxlock actions instead of the classic sidelock actions. They are hammerless instead of having the exposed hammers like you would see in a western. Other than that they could have been made by one of your country's shotgun makers. Such as Churchill, Greener, or Westley Richards. They could also be of Spanish, Belgian or Italian origins. Then of course there is always the possibility that they are American made shotguns. Side by Sides can be very difficult to idenity without being able to actually handle the model in question and look for the manufactuer's mark. Jcordell
- Thanks for narrowing the search somewhat. I think I have some more screenshots of the shotgun, stored somewhere in the deep recesses of my hard drive, although I doubt they'll help in furthering the identity of the shotguns... Chef BrianHello!
Page format
Hello all. I changed the page format to more closely fit the standard for IMFDB. Also I corrected some of the comments to make sure that the viewers know that what is illegal in Britain is NOT ILLEGAL in the United States, where the majority of the IMFDB members and Admins reside. :) I feel sorry for the folks in the UK. If the zombie apocalypse ever happens, you guys are so screwed! ;) I probably have more guns in my closet than 99% of the smaller police departments in the country. Man, what happened? And the British were such excellent gun makers once.... :( MoviePropMaster2008 19:03, 7 March 2009 (UTC)
EDIT: I also confirmed (easily) that the pump shotgun was an 870. I will try to post a pic of an 870 in that exact configuration sometime soon. The Side by Side shotguns are much harder, but as I noted, I've only seen silver engraved receivers on the HIGHER END ones. MPM2008
Remington 870
Oh that's not fair. I identifed the shotgun as a Remington also. The only thing that I found puzzling was that the screencap shows a slug shotgun in the actor's hands. But I guess in England the television and movie companies get what they can. If that means an Remington 870 Express doubles as a conventional smoothbore then so be it.
