Travis' grip on the model 29
The support hand thumb overlapping the strong hand like that used to be taught to police, and was very commonly taught to civilians pre-1980's. I know many older shooters who use this grip, including the one and only Les Baer. I've even seen him use this grip while firing a 1911.
Travis has got some cash on him
Okay so Travis spends $815.00 on the guns and holster. That's in 1975 dollars. Adjusted for 2011 dollars you're looking at $3,420.00. Evidently Travis does very well for himself driving a Taxi. I'm not saying I doubt it. I understand that those taxi drivers can make some pretty good bank in tips alone in NYC. Wish I could walk into my favorite gunstore and plop down over $3,400 in cash. If I was careful in my selection (I like second hand guns) and haggeled with the owner I could probably walk out with five or six handguns instead of the four that Travis buys. Of course I would be buying from a legitimate business instead of some black market street dealer. But it's interesting to look at the money involved. --Jcordell 18:22, 11 January 2012 (CST)
