I grabbed some temporary caps off of Hulu from the pilot to spruce up the page. I don't think I'll be keeping up with this series though. --Funkychinaman 18:09, 10 February 2012 (CST)

As i said, feel free to edit and change things--Coltmth 18:27, 10 February 2012 (CST)

Yes, it's a wiki. That's sort of implied. :P --Funkychinaman 18:34, 10 February 2012 (CST)

Thanks for that. Make me feel like a a**hole.

I'm sorry, i tried to insert a better M4 pic. Can someone please make that change for me. You'll find the pic under the file name that is listed, its the one with the forward railguard and sight attachment--Coltmth 19:26, 10 February 2012 (CST)

Is that the one? --Funkychinaman 19:45, 10 February 2012 (CST)

yeah, thanks very much--Coltmth 19:47, 10 February 2012 (CST)

Would it be possible to get screens that don't have the huge "Buffer" box at the top... --K 16:04, 26 February 2012 (CST)

Guy Hastings 1911

I believe that Guy Hastings uses a standard Colt M1911 or a Colt Government Model [Cant find a decent pic, so identifying exact make/model is impossible]this is due the to original style Hammer, Safety and slide release but I'm sure it wasn't a Kimber Warrior. --BrokenBullet 14:11, 11 February 2012 (CST)

How do you get screen grabs off of HULU?--Coltmth 09:21, 12 February 2012 (CST)

It's a little trickier now than it was a year ago since they updated their player. I use a program named FastStone Image Viewer, which has an option for capturing windows. Open the video in a pop-out window, and when you capture the window, you can't actually click on the video itself, otherwise the image will be obscured. Click AROUND the video, and then crop it. I hope that helps. --Funkychinaman 14:24, 12 February 2012 (CST)

Proper Titles

Please note my fine firearm-identifying comrades that the San Francisco Police Department (SFPD) has never had "Detectives".They have always have, and still do, identify their plainclothes investigators as "Inspectors" Ex: Inspector Harry Callahan or Insp. Callahan. As a result title them as such.

Thanks. Someone should tell IMDb then. --Funkychinaman 19:41, 13 February 2012 (CST)

This is Hollywood, BTW, so don't expect accuracy. —nkingman

Someone needs to tell the show's writers. The title "Detective" is incorrectly used throughout the show. It's bugged me since the pilot episode. -APS221

Madsen's Backup gun and Kit Nelson's Revolver

Can someone please look over episode 3 so that we can try to figure out what Madsen's B.U. Gun is and what kit nelson's revolver is?

I produced a pic of Nelson revolver but I don't know much about telling the variations apart, so i cant ID it... --BrokenBullet 14:45, 26 February 2012 (CST)

And Madsen's Back up Gun?--Coltmth 16:21, 26 February 2012 (CST)

Kit Nelson is carrying some kind of smith & wesson for sure--Coltmth 20:46, 27 February 2012 (CST)

Pic is up of Madsen's back-up gun, feel free to ID --BrokenBullet 06:24, 9 March 2012 (CST)

First-time poster, long-time lurker. Here's a blurry close-up of the gun drawn from the ankle holster. http://www1.picturepush.com/photo/a/7897684/img/7897684.jpg

It helps a little. Could u post it to the page?--Coltmth 09:52, 28 March 2012 (CDT)

End of Season 1

Ok people, season 1 has ended. Lets try to get some more pics up and try to identify some guns. I have all season 1 episodes on iTunes. If u get the episodes in HD, it would help with the clarity. AS of right now, Fox does not have a plan for a second season, but the ratings hit an all time low with the season 1 finale, so hopes for a second season aren't high.--Coltmth 09:58, 28 March 2012 (CDT)
