Unknowns

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! --Funkychinaman 18:34, 27 January 2012 (CST)

Unknown Revolver

Fergus (Ben Kingsley) carries an unknown revolver as his service weapon. He uses it to intimidate Sean and to rescue Martin.

I believe that’s a Ruger Security Six revolver with a 4 inch full under lug barrel, it was the standard issue sidearm of the Royal Ulster Constabulary (RUC) at the time.

What do you think?

Did they ever make a Ruger Security Six with a full underlug? With fixed sights? And Fergus was not RUC, he's Special Branch. My guesses are Taurus Model 65 or the Ruger GP100. --Funkychinaman 20:33, 29 January 2012 (CST)

Ruger Security Six - .357 Magnum

I believe it's a Taurus, which model is hard to tell, could be a custom version?-Bravejoker

I'm going to go with the Taurus Model 65. --Funkychinaman 01:32, 11 February 2012 (CST)

Is that a bike handle for a foregrip?
This is probably a homemade weapon. The IRA, like a lot of "revolutionary" groups sometimes find their arm supply routes disrupted so, like other (VC, Mau Maus) they make their own with whatever materials are at hand. --Charon68 19:07, 27 January 2012 (CST)
IDed. This one actually has it's wikipedia page --Funkychinaman 16:02, 28 January 2012 (CST)

more the loyalist paramilitaries than the provos Gaddafi had no problem suppling them from his excess stock

The rest

Why are are the pictures so tiny and horrible quality? I made them 700pix and ther're still tiny!--Mandolin 19:07, 25 January 2012 (CST)

The real size of the pictures is 300px so it you enlarge them in the article the quality will be poor. The size of the image in the article must not be more then its real size. If 700-px image is needed then no less then 700-px file must be uploaded. Greg-Z 00:42, 26 January 2012 (CST)

Unidentifiable Lever-Action Rifles

Cannot speak for the rest but the weapon next to the Sten is a Martini Henry Mk II or Mk III--Charon68 19:11, 27 January 2012 (CST)

Yeah, that was guy who originally made the page. I haven't changed and descriptions yet. --Funkychinaman 19:45, 27 January 2012 (CST)
