Talk:Miami Vice (TV Series)

Changed "the weapons used in this series" to "some of the weapons used" because the list isn't complete off course.

For instance; I miss the rocket launcher (think it was a "Stinger") used in the episode where they blew up Crockett's Ferrari Daytona Spyder 365 GTS/4 that got replaced by a Ferrari Testarossa later...

I do not think that was a Serbu Shorty....pretty sure it was a custom cut-down Ithaca 37 Stakeout. Best evidence of that is that there is not ejection port visible which there should be given the position of the weapon in the picture.

Uzi

An Uzi is used by the hired killer (Jim Zubiena) in the episode: Calderone's Return. Part 1: The Hit List There is some debate as to whether it was an UZI or perhaps a Ruger Mini-14 (the militarized version AC-566)with a folding stock used by the killer in the above named episode.

If you're talking about the shootout in Belinda Crcokett's house it's an AC556.--78.146.66.194 17:39, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

IMI Uzi 9mm

Stainless Steel Ruger AC556/GB-F ("Government Barrel, Folding Stock") - 5.56mm

Okay. Thanks for the input. --Jcordell 19:07, 19 July 2009 (UTC)

Work in progress

I'm working on this a little at a time. Some of the main sidearms used by the main characters will be blank for a while until I get to that season. I figure the main characters primary guns go first then the thugs and whatever guest star in an episode. Predator20 02:44, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I predict that this page is going to have a looooootttt of guns by the time this is finished. -Gunman69 16:25, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

There is almost 50 on the list right now, but a lot of caps are missing. I hope to see 80+ by the time it's all done. We got a ways to to go. I hope to do at least 2 episodes a week. Predator20 01:02, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

The screencaps look great. The page is really coming along. --Jcordell 16:23, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Zubiena Stepped in

Looks like our buddy Jim Zubiena went to the page and commented. Could any one make the comment more, "aceptable" to the wiki?-Oliveira 16:06, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Where did he commment? I ask because the only people who have made edits to this page in the past few days are Predator20, Jcordell, and yours truly. -Gunman69 16:34, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Oh. Then Predator must have added it in. He did it poorly though.-Oliveira 16:37, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

I posted a link from a Miami Vice forum where he is a member and answered questions that where asked. My sig is after the link. Not sure where the confusion could come from, Oliveira. The link to the forum is on Jim Zubiena discussion page. The comment I added on the Ruger AC-556 is his own words from the forum. Predator20 17:10, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Also Oliveira, I'm not going to change the comment to make it more "acceptable" to the wiki, those are his own words. Don't fuck with it. Predator20 17:20, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey man, what i meant was make the comment something like what it is now. Put quotation marks on each end and say that Zubiena was the one who said it. What you did was stupid. You didn't put quotation marks. Jesus wept. I didn't say that we should make his words more "family friendly". God damm.-Oliveira 17:28, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Hey, easy guys. It's all fixed. Not a big deal. -Gunman69 17:42, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

You're bitching about a set of quotation marks, get real. When I pasted the comment I said "quoted from Jim Zubiena himself" before the comment. If that doesn't explain it, I don't know what to tell you. Anyway lets move on, I have snapshots to do. Predator20

Come on guys. This isn't a site where the contributers flame each other. Lets all play nice. Otherwise we'll end up like the contributers over on Wikipedia. Bunch of quarrelsome, cantakerous old men. --Jcordell 01:44, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Lol, yes, I agree. They just all love to argue. They should stop playing on the internet and become lawyers instead haha. -Gunman69 02:38, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

I'm way past a set of missing quotation marks. Anyway how does the page look to you guys? Only 9 episodes in right now. The only thing bugs me a little bit is the grain you see in some shots. '80s show have to live with it. Predator20 03:10, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Doesn't matter to me. It looks soooooo much better than it did! It really annoyed me that a great show like this had such a poor page, but it looks outstanding now. Excellent, excellent work! -Gunman69 03:27, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Does it have that many guns in those last nine episodes?-Oliveira 13:47, 9 August 2009 (UTC)
