I have the screenshots but I need to upload them yet. This will take a while. The full movie is on youtube if someone else wants to do it before then.

We'll wait until you're ready then. --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:40, 19 September 2014 (EDT)

Amityville: It's About Time (originally Amityville 1992: It's About Time) is the sixth installment to the Amityville Horror saga. It was released direct-to-video in 1992 by Republic Pictures Home Video. Lionsgate Home Entertainment and FremantleMedia North America released the film to DVD with the 1992 removed from the title in July 2005.

The following weapons were used in Amityville: It's About Time:

Handguns

Walther P38

Erroneously referred to as a "Walther P38K", a regular Walther P38 is used by Jacob Sterling to threaten Dr. Leonard Stafford in an apparent hallucination. The Walther P38K (K standing for "Kurz", the German word for short) is basically a P38 with a shortened barrel. The one seen in the film features a full length barrel, meaning it could not possibly be a P38K.

Despite this major mistake, nearly everything else that is said in detail drescribing the pistol is quite accurate. Sterling speaks highly of the weapon, also mentioning that it was carried by both the SS and some of the Berlin police even today; though those weapons are called the Walther P1.

"Take a look at this puppy. It's a 'Walther P38K'. Actually quite old. Worth a lot. German construction. The SS used to carry these. Some of the Berlin police still carry these today, although they're actually being replaced by more sophisticated sidearms. It's a terrific piece of machinery. Incredibly accurate. Never jams. It's just a work of art to look at. But I guess its day has passed. I'll tell you one thing, though. You turn this puppy on some asshole and you can slip your wrist through the hole it'd leave behind."
