(resolved) Writer's pistol: doesn't seem to be a standard 1911 or TT-33

I wonder what has been used as Writer's pistol in the movie. The shape is similar to Colt 1911 and Tokarev T-33, but the following features do not match:

  • a takedown lever just above the front of the trigger guard, on the left side. It is not featured on 1911, TT-33 or other pistols that I can think of (or see photos of). This might have been added to a real pistol for movie purposes though. On watching film a few more times this is just a splash of water in that place.
  • spur at the bottom plate of the mag. Neither 1911 or TT-33 feature such magazine plates as far as I could find.
  • grip spur under hammer. TT-33 does not have such a feature, 1911 does. Even if TT-33 slide has somehow been pushed to the front, shape of "spur" is wrong for TT-33.
  • there is no mag release button behind trigger. 1911 and TT-33 do have one.
  • hammer is seen at the back of the slide, similar to 1911. Tokarev had a hammer seen on top of the slide, behind rear sight.
  • serrations at the back of the slide look like 1911 or post-war TT-33. Earlier TT-33 had a wider spacing of the serrations.

It looks to me like the slide is forward, like it's about to be disassembled. The take down lever in front of the slide lock is what I don't get. There are a few other guns that have the 1911, TT-33 style. Like below but it's not it either.--Predator20 23:45, 28 May 2010 (UTC)
