Ah, good point, Pred. Makes sense I suppose. (I wonder if RoboCop armorer Randy Moore was involved with Miami Vice? Probably not, but still) I wasn't sure if more pics were needed, but it's kinda obvious with the first pic (rounded trigger guard) and last pic (Standard thickness slide). Kinda neat that some Miami Vice guns were re-used. Does anyone know if RoboCop's armorer Randy Moore previously work on Miami Vice? Would make sense I suppose.

Anyway, that comment was made some time back, though I didn't think much of it at the time. I guess I was kinda hoping it was still an actual LAR pistol - Not to take away from the Detonics but the LAR Grizzly is slightly neat-looking yet obscure piece and thus fit in RoboCop pretty well I thought.

Revision as of 03:27, 31 August 2010

I just watched this again and i noticed that near the end when Clarence is shooting at Lewis he hits her windshield with one shot yet it makes 5 or six holes in it. Any ideas?

Robocop's auto-9 also seems to do this when he shoots a windshield, but at least his firearm shoots in bursts so at least there is a bit of an excuse

Was he using a shotgun at that point (been awhile since I saw this)? If so it'd be the effect of the buckshot.

No, at this point of the film he was using his desert eagle

- The Desert Eagle impact (And yes, he was shooting a Deagle) is a mistake in the film. I noticed it a long time ago. Though I have to note that I can't really recall ever seeing the Auto-9 shoot at a windshield in the movie though. StanTheMan 21:30, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

The LAR Grizzly

From the Main Page - -possible correction needed- Based on the pictures showing none of the thickness increases used to reinforce the basic 1911 slide design that the Grizzy has I suggest it's just a extended barrel "normal" 1911 type pistol. A Detonics Scoremaster possibly.

I think the fellow makes a point - The images all show a 1911-looking pistol that doesn't have the thickened slide and squared-off trigger guard of a LAR Grizzly. Some additional pics might be needed but perhaps this is one that should be investigated/corrected. StanTheMan 00:19, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

I think it's a Detonics Scoremaster too. The custom MAC-10 that Emil uses was also used in Miami Vice. The Detonics Scoremaster was pretty frequent in Miami Vice also.--Predator20 00:52, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
