Talk:The Punisher (2017 TV Series)

Just a fun one I've noticed in episode 11, one of Frank's g36c mags has the first cartridge with a spent primer, dunno if a safety feature for the actors or a simple overlook, took a couple screens for you:

Probably a safety thing, I reckon. Spartan198 (talk) 14:53, 18 November 2017 (EST)

Whenever you see what look like live rounds in a magazine, they will always be dummy rounds. By that I mean that they will have spent primers and no powder but a bullet crimped on. In this cap, I think that all of the rounds have spent primers, it is just less obvious on the second bullet (there is a slight dent visible, maybe whatever fired this round originally did relatively light strikes). --commando552 (talk) 19:37, 21 November 2017 (EST)

Few things I picked up on

A few spoilers probably here so I apologise. Frank starts using the Kimber Warrior as his main sidearm after he and Micro rob the weapons shipment. Billy Russo carries what looks like a S&W M&P with a tan lower in episode 10 as well as a Kimber Warrior in a few other episodes. In the last episode Frank uses some sort of AR variant with a collapsible butt-stock similar to the HK416C and Russo has some sort of custom AR-15 with a stainless finish. Rawlins has a stainless SIG P229 it looked like in episode 12. Lots of MP5s in a couple of episodes and I'm sure I saw an MP7 being carried by a background character in one of the episodes. All this is off the top of my head, I'll no doubt be watching the series again as it was brilliant. --cool-breeze (talk) 18:44, 19 November 2017 (EST)

It really is fantastic. I'm glad Marvel is offering up something for its adult fans with this series. Hard to believe it's in the same canon as the kid-friendly MCU films XD. Maybe I'll check out the other Netflix shows. I didn't think anyone could be a better Punisher than Thomas Jane, but Bernthal definitely owns it. Spartan198 (talk) 08:54, 20 November 2017 (EST)

I never thought much to Tom Janes Punisher until the Dirty Laundry short. He looked the part in the film but the film itself was pretty bad. In my opinion anyway. --cool-breeze (talk) 15:04, 20 November 2017 (EST)

I think the shootout in Micro's hideout was a bit too much like them trying to be John Wick and failing. There's a moment where Frank shoots a gun with his G36 and then tilts it sideways to finish the guy off. Watching it again, I could not see what reason for him to do that.

During the introduction of Anvil with the DHS doing training, their training M4s had no front sights. Actually, I saw a few M4s without front sights and oddly police officer in tactical clothing with a plain jane M4 with an old carrying handle...kinda weird in this day and age Excalibur01 (talk) 23:11, 21 November 2017 (EST)
