Overview
How's it look? This movie was kind of hard to screencap due to its fast pace. Many guns I had to constantly go back and go frame by frame to grab. If I missed any, they would be too hard to ID anyway, but I think I got them all. The introduction of newer guns was a refreshing challenge, and a step up from the typical movie guns. - Gunmaster45
- Awesome job, I was hoping one of you guys would take up this movie soon, I was considering it for awhile. When Jean-Claude was trying to arrest Brian, were there any clear shots of the guns his men had when they found his phone/walkie talkie? I can't remember. Diego Wolfwood
- I'll check, there could be a possibility. - Gunmaster45
- It looks great! I rented this movie Friday and thought about screencapping it myself, but I'm really busy with my class, so I didn't have time to do it myself. I think you pretty much got everything. In fact, you even got some guns that I think I would have missed. -MT2008
- Very well done, as usual GM! Better than i ever could. -The Winchester
- Hey Diego, I checked and one guy had a Mossberg 590 shotgun (which I'll add to the main page, but it is a VERY blurry shot), and one cop had a Beretta, but there's already enough shots, so it can go here. - Gunmaster45
SIG P229 to P239
- I'm not sure this is a P229. The trigger guard seems too round. I think it is actually a P239. -MT2008
- I agree, it looks more like a P239, it has a rounded trigger guard and a it is a bit smaller.-GunnutHk
- If you look at a SIG P239, the slide cuts stops 3/4ths of the way to the end of the slide. This cut goes all the way to the end, so I figured it was a P229. - Gunmaster45
- I agree, it looks more like a P239, it has a rounded trigger guard and a it is a bit smaller.-GunnutHk
- Huh? Sorry, I don't follow. Only on the older model P220s and P226s (the ones with the mandrel-stamped slides) is there a .75" space between the cocking serrations and the rear of the slide. The P239 doesn't have that. Also, look at the first screenshot of him taking the gun out. On a P229, the slide profile makes the cocking serrations visible if seen from the front (they hang out from the side), while a P239 doesn't have that. Also, the hammer seems to be the wrong shape, too. I say, definitely P239. -MT2008
- Okay, here's my explaination (read closely, this is hard to explain).
It's hard to explain but you look at the shots from the movie:
Now, I agree it doesn't quite match a P229, but I don't think it is a P239, unless they make a better matched model I'm unaware of. - Gunmaster45
- Ah, now I see what you're confused. The answer is that it's an earlier-model P239. The newer guns (MPM's P239 picture is one of the newer ones) have the slide with the cocking serrations going to the top, but the older-model P239s don't (the cocking serrations only go up halfway, like on the P229). See the Remtek entry on the P239, which has a picture of an older model P239:
- See now? -MT2008
- Yeah, I get it now. I wasn't aware of the older model. - Gunmaster45
