I still am not sure. Those grips appear to me at least to belong to a Colt. The medallion is very large (much larger than most Smith and Wesson medallions) and chequered more like a Colt). Also, isn't that his "partner's" gun being shown, as they make a point of showing the difficulty he has in removing his sidearm from his belt. I feel that this is right after that scene, but I have not seen the movie since it was in theaters.[[User:SAWGunner89|SAWGunner89]] 03:42, 17 November 2010 (UTC) | |||

Just saw it tonight, Teddy Daniels doesn't use a detective special he uses a a model 10 Smith and Wesson M&P. humanzie3
Quick question about the holsters: did they have leather paddle holsters in 1954?
Made some small suggesstions on main page. However, for the SS officer's Walther, could it be a custom job, or did they not have the technology at the time for such a nickel finish. Also, as I suggested on the main page, I believe that at least in the holster shot, DiCaprio's sidearm appears to be a Colt Marshal (a derivative of the Colt Official Police but with a rounded grip) and not a Smith and Wesson Military and Police. However, for the scenes in the light house, that is definently a Smith and Wesson, as indicated by its shrouded ejector rod. Also, there are some form of Winchester lever-action rifles found in the movie (in the scenes of clean-up after the hurricane).SAWGunner89 00:07, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
- Could the M&P actually be a Colt model revolver, perhaps a Marshal (at least for this shot), as it appears to match its grip. Later in the movie, his service sidearm does appear to be Smith and Wesson Military and Police revolver, as it appears to have a ejector rod shroud. It is hard to say even having seen the movie personally, as the firearm is not present through most of the movie and when it is featured, it is only very quick, rapidly moving shots.SAWGunner89 00:09, 16 March 2010 (UTC)
the shot of the revolver in the holster is most likely a colt detective special in .38 special. but possibly a colt agent as they can't be told by the grip alone.
No those are S&W Magna grips.--Jcordell 05:20, 6 November 2010 (UTC)

The WWII Flashback
For those who has seen the movie, the one thing about the WWII flashback the actually bothered me wasn't the whole line up the Germans and shoot them, they deserved it. But it was that all the American soldiers were carrying Garands. It was a whole line of them. I was expecting a few Tommies or a BAR in between, but all Garands! Excalibur01
- Quite strange to me. It feels like WW1 with just self-loading rifles and a pistol. - Kenny99 21:39, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
Goof?
The Kommandant is lying on the floor, and his left cheek looks like it just exploded. What is presumably his Walther PP is lying beside him, just out of reach of his left hand. If we're to assume that shot himself with his left hand, from the left side of his head, wouldn't it be his right cheek that's a mess? Aren't exit wounds much more likely to be messier than entry wounds? --funkychinaman 03:39, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
- Now that you mention it...that's right. Unless when the man fell, he dropped his Walther...on the other side of his body Excalibur01 04:06, 29 June 2010 (UTC)
