In Season 3's "Light Sleeper" (S3E14), a .40 caliber Beretta 8040 Cougar F owned by Marine Sgt. Malcolm Porter (Tim Griffin) is identified as the murder weapon in the shooting of two military wives. While examining it in her laboratory, Abby embarks on a brief segue on a critics' description of the .40 S&W round as a "Short and Wimpy," when measured against the 10mm Autoload. The handgun appears to be Inox variant.
