:Are you serious (and if so, are ''they'' serious)? The pistol that is handled by Jim in the beginning is definitely a modified Taurus PT92 with Pachmayr grips (you can clearly see the slide markings), and the assault rifles used by the 6ers (and later the kids) are modified ARs - you can see the AR magazines and blank shell casings being ejected. Also, an armorer's name is listed in the credits - I highly doubt that they would pay an armorer just to handle Nerf Guns. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]] 23:01, 27 September 2011 (CDT) | |||
Revision as of 04:01, 28 September 2011
Just a heads up for whoever adds screenshots, I saw a promo piece with the armourer about the weapons training for the show, and I think the rifles are built on Colt Model 733s, at least that was what they were being trained on. Assuming that these were the show weapons without the shell. They were also using what appeared to be Beretta 92 pistols of some sort fitted with rails and red dot sights. They were also being trained on Glocks. No idea if these weapons were actually the prop weapons that were used as a basis for the guns or what, but is worth a look. --commando552 08:07, 27 September 2011 (CDT)
Just watched the pilot, and was it just me or were there a few goofs with the weapons? First off, Jim Shannon originally has a customised Taurus PT92 fitted with rails and sights, but when he gets to the other side it is clearly not the same weapon, and has turned into the same pistol that everyone else carries (I prop I think). Then when the kids are trapped in the Rover they can all be seen with that ergonomic monstrosity of a rifle/PDW that has the magazine poking out the top of the butt (I think this is a prop too, as I think there were no on screen muzzle flashes when they were being fired). When they leave the vehicle though the only weapons they had were a totally different rifle that made from a Colt Model 733 type weapon. I can understand only using weapons that are built on actual guns for firing scenes, but if they are a completely different design to the prop (magazine at the front on the bottom as opposed to at the back on top) I am going to start getting annoyed with it. --commando552 13:23, 27 September 2011 (CDT)
