Need Help IDing the Revolver
I had trouble identifying the revolver featured in the Promo images. I looked over several images of revolvers on the site, and went with my best bet.
It looks like some of sort of Foreign made revolver (like a SPanish one), but I can;t tell. --Swordfish941 (talk) 14:43, 20 June 2014 (EDT)
- The sceen revolver resembles Arminius HW-9 but has a shorter barrel. Greg-Z (talk) 14:51, 20 June 2014 (EDT) Even a better guess: Arminius HW-4 with 2.5" barrel. Greg-Z (talk) 15:56, 20 June 2014 (EDT)
- Thank you for your help. And I'm possibly only the only person who thinks that Pattinson will actually give a good performance in this (since he looks like he's playing an ACTUAL CHARACTER with depth and emotions). --Swordfish941 (talk) 16:10, 20 June 2014 (EDT)
- It is definitely not an HW-4 (or any Arminius I think). Firstly, the screen used gun is a 6 shooter and the HW4 has a 7 round cylinder. Secondly the frame on an Arminius is pretty distinctive looking, being longer in front of the cylinder than more conventional revolvers (like the one in the film apears to be). Thirdly the sights are wrong, with the HW4 having that distinctive square fixed rear sight and a lower profile front sight, as opposed to the screen gun which has an adjustable rear sight and a higher profile front one (ramped with a blade on top as opposed to blade fitted directly to the barrel rib). Fourthly, the vent on the barrel rib is too long for an HW4. Lastly, the ejector rod lacks that thicker portion on the back half that the HW4 has. Unfortunately I can't come up with a match, as nothing I can think of has a vented rib, adjustable sights and an unshrouded ejector rob. I have a gut instinct that it could be a Llama of some sort tough, I think they have made revolvers with a vented rib and unshrouded ejector, but don't know if they made a snub like this. Are there any shots of the left side to show what kind of cylinder release it has? --commando552 (talk) 20:53, 20 June 2014 (EDT)
- I'm now convinced that the revolver is a Rohm RG-38. It matches the revolver the most.
