::I doubt it's a Les Baer anyway because those are super expensive and none of the accuracy and things are useful when it is a blank gun, so it's kind of a waste. On a different note, can the Grease Gun be confirmed as an M3 or an M3A1, or is the right side never seen? - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

Colt Gold Cup National Match Pistol

The Colt Gold Cup National Match Pistol was ID'ed by the Ellison Rear Sight in the photo. - Phoenixent

Oh my, it was already ID'd? Some smartass seems to have removed it and assumed that the same 1911 Commander was used in that scene, which it evidently was not. --Joffeloff 18:39, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
The Commander is sill there and that's a late Commander like a M1991A1 model. - Phoenixent

Aurelio's 1911

The 'shadow' could also be front serrations, it's hard to tell.

It has a standard Government Front and Rear Sights so it's not a Les Baer. - Phoenixent

I doubt it's a Les Baer anyway because those are super expensive and none of the accuracy and things are useful when it is a blank gun, so it's kind of a waste. On a different note, can the Grease Gun be confirmed as an M3 or an M3A1, or is the right side never seen? - Gunmaster45
I agree, more knowledgeable people than me have discounted this on a prominent M1911 forum. I'm going to go ahead and remove my references to my guess. Also, I have no clue about the Grease Gun, I can take a second look to see if there's more screencaps but to be honest unless it's a semiauto handgun I couldn't identify such old guns for the life of me. --Joffeloff 15:15, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

Nice gun handling

^ I thought I'd comment on this, he places his hand on his chest because pros do this when shooting with one hand. It allows them to know their hand is not going to ever be in front of the muzzle. - Gunmaster45

^ This on the other hand, is not good gun handling. His grip is low, so his control won't be good. Usually it doesn't feel natural to hold the gun like this, since instinctively you hold the gun high, so it's wierd that actors do this so much in movies. In his defense, he's drunk here so maybe Denzel actually knew enough about gun handling to screw it up and appear more druken. - Gunmaster45

He appears to use proper grips, both one- and two-handed throughout the film when he is actually in firefights so I would say this is deliberately sloppy. --Joffeloff 15:15, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
