Talk:The Assassination of Trotsky
1911 or Hi-Power?
I begin to doubt about this pistol:
At first I identified it as M1911 but now I begin to think that it looks more like a Hi-Power. There isn't any other view of this gun. In the final scene Frank Jackson holds this pistol but it is seen very briefly. Greg-Z (talk) 13:37, 5 July 2016 (EDT)
- Given how thin the grip is, my first thought was TT-33. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:04, 5 July 2016 (EDT)
- An interesting idea! but some other features, like lanyard ring, doesn't match TT, as for me. Greg-Z (talk) 02:59, 6 July 2016 (EDT)
- The TT-33 does have a lanyard ring on the left side of the grip. And the grip itself looks a bit thin to be a double-stack. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:01, 6 July 2016 (EDT)

- I too think this is a Hi-Power. The glint at the mid-point of the trigger guard suggests a trigger that matches that of a HP and not a 1911. The angle and light here make it difficult to tell but I think there's also the distinctive narrowing step-down at the front of the slide, again indicative of a Hi-Power.
