ALso some debate as to the timeline. The story starts in 1980, but then jumps ahead to the late eighties. Probably 1989. It then ends in the winter of 1991 with Lector preparing to meet Agent Starling in 1991. So Dolarhyde using a GLOCK 17 is correct. --[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 15:40, 11 July 2010 (UTC) | ALso some debate as to the timeline.

Okay I've concluded that Graham is using a [[Charter Arms Bulldog|Charter Arms Pug (.357 Magnum)]] when he takes on Dollarhyde. Just like in ''[[Manhunter]]'' and also just like in the novel. | |||
It's stressed in the novel Red Dragon (which ''[[Manhunter]]'' is based on as well) that Graham uses a Charter Arms revolver. I think what has been throwing people is that in ''[[Red Dragon]]'' (the movie) they have him using a current production version of the Bulldog/Pug. The current production model has a lug protecting the ejector rod. ''[[Red Dragon]]'' was filmed in 2002. ''[[Manhunter]]'' was filmed in 1985. In the 1980's the Cahrter Arms Bulldog/Pug would have had an exposed ejector rod. | |||
Anyway that's my conclusion. So I've changed it. Becasue I agree that is not a Ruger SP-101.--[[User:Jcordell|Jcordell]] 16:03, 11 July 2010 (UTC) | |||

Identification of weapons
There are questions as to the shotgun that Dollarhyde uses. Is it actually a Mossberg or is it a Mossberg that was modified by the production to give it a unique look? Also there is some debate as to the revolver being used by Graham at the end of the movie. --Jcordell 15:37, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Timeline of story
ALso some debate as to the timeline. The story starts in 1980, but then jumps ahead to the late eighties. Probably 1989. It then ends in the winter of 1991 with Lector preparing to meet Agent Starling in 1991. So Dolarhyde using a GLOCK 17 is correct. --Jcordell 15:40, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Charter Arms Revolver
Okay I've concluded that Graham is using a Charter Arms Pug (.357 Magnum) when he takes on Dollarhyde. Just like in Manhunter and also just like in the novel.
It's stressed in the novel Red Dragon (which Manhunter is based on as well) that Graham uses a Charter Arms revolver. I think what has been throwing people is that in Red Dragon (the movie) they have him using a current production version of the Bulldog/Pug. The current production model has a lug protecting the ejector rod. Red Dragon was filmed in 2002. Manhunter was filmed in 1985. In the 1980's the Cahrter Arms Bulldog/Pug would have had an exposed ejector rod.
Anyway that's my conclusion. So I've changed it. Becasue I agree that is not a Ruger SP-101.--Jcordell 16:03, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
