RE:Flare Pistol in Soldier Boyz

Thanks, glad I could help. When I found that page it was annoying me as well, as it is clearly real with a very distinctive design, but any search I did for flare pistols just came up with more conventional military style flare guns. It wasn't until I realised it was probably a cheap civilian thing and searched for "cheap flare pistol" and it came up on the first page. --commando552 (talk) 13:09, 20 June 2014 (EDT)

Revolver ID

I was going to suggesting bringing in JCordell, but great minds think alike. Since it's an older revolver, maybe Nyles as well. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:41, 24 August 2014 (EDT)

Revolver ID

Well it's more of a guess, but I like to think of it being an educated guess. I believe it's a Manurhin MR-73 with a 5" barrel.The cylinder release latch and the design of the hammer is consistent with the MR-73. However it is the model with the adjustable rear sights.The front sight is too high for the fixed sight model. It appears that the rear sight was removed - possibly the actor kept snagging the rear sight on his clothing and other things.

It is not a Korth revolver and it lacks the ventilated top rib of the Colt Python and Colt Diamondback. When the movie was made (1983) there were five ,commercial, mass-produced revolver models with full barrel length lugs. The S&W L frame .357 magnum (586/686/581/681), Colt Python, Colt Diamondback, Korth and Manurhin MR-73. The MR-73 comes closest to matching the lines of the revolver in those screencaps. Hope this helped.--Jcordell (talk) 17:52, 24 August 2014 (EDT)

Well right now I have to say that the revolver in "Contraband" looks like it could be a Smith & Wesson Model 27 with the 3.5" barrel. It's a large framed revolver and has lines similar to the S&W N frame. Note that in the one screencap it's obvious that the cylinder does not fill the frame like it would on a Model 29 (44 Magnum) and the forcing cone is longer - like a Model 27/28. I have to go with the 27. Give me time on the other two. --Jcordell (talk) 11:24, 25 August 2014 (EDT)

S&W Model 27-2 - .357 magnum with 3.5" barrel.

Looks like a Smython. The barrel of a Colt Python fitted to the frame of the Smith & Wesson Model 19. This was a very popular conversion done by a few gunsmiths in the seventies and sixties. When Smith brought out the L frame models in 1980 the popularity of the Smython faded. Google and you'll find out more info. --Jcordell (talk) 01:59, 28 August 2014 (EDT)

Smython or sometimes called a "Smolt". Python barrel and a S&W Model 19 frame.

There was also the Couger. The Python barrel fitted to the Ruger Security-Six frame. --Jcordell (talk) 02:03, 28 August 2014 (EDT)

re:Riva Esterina Black Widow

I got that date from an Italian site, but after Google translating (I speak zero Italian) it the date wasn't when it was made, but rather talking abut some journal it appeared in in 1982 (I think). I'm not quite sure what this site is or what it is talking about, but it is one of the only sites on the web that even mentions this gun. --commando552 (talk) 12:16, 28 August 2014 (EDT)

Wide sreen

Funky wrote: "It all depends on aspect ratios. Per the Style Guide, "Thumbnails of "full-screen" (4x3 ratio) screencaps should be set at 500 pixels, thumbnails for "widescreen" screencaps (1.66:1, 16:9, 1:85:1, 2.35:1) screencaps should be set to 600 pixels. Lower quality screencaps, from unrestored films, VHS copies or those filmed in 16mm may have thumbnails set to 400px." Here's the link we had illustrating the most popular aspect ratios. --Funkychinaman (talk) 15:33, 28 August 2014 (EDT)! Unfortunately.

RE:

Eh, it's kind of confusing, because the poster details are only stated at the end of the film's article.

Changing Glock captions

Thanks for your wanting to change the redirect coding for the Glock. I think it would be better to concentrate on changing the ones on the actual movie and tv pages. The captions on the image pages are not looked at as much and I don't want you to burn out on changing every caption in every image. If you can help out and try to organize the gun pages themselves, that would be so great. --Ben41 (talk) 06:56, 17 April 2015 (EDT)

Long weapon

I hear it a first time. This is nowhere so - just look at all other movies! Mívaj and 325 revolvers,some submachine guns - 375 (short), 500 long guns, etc! It looks even better as rifle 400px a width so there I do not see anything :) Where it here 300 and 400?!? - http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Pulp_Fiction#Remington_870

or where - http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Predator

and this is long or short? - http://www.imfdb.org/index.php?title=Predator&action=edit&section=16

and here is was? - http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Commando

or here - http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Rambo_III

and 100, 500, 1000 others ...

O.K. but to be about as hard to fix something for the hundreds of films on this web, it is too late, it would have to have been at the outset somehow identify. And pictures of weapons are different - there are oblong shape, in others squares etc. I did the approximate proportionality. I give 400 for smg, 300 pistols, 450 rifles or machine guns and 500 when they are belonging bayonet or silencer. But still I do not know how to determine the size Bazookas and rocket launchers and similar weapons. --Pandolfini (talk) 14:12, 17 August 2015 (EDT)

The long pistols I'm did 350, but here is even 400! - http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/L%C3%A9on:_The_Professional#Smith_.26_Wesson_41

OK. If it's in the rules, but so until the next time. In retrospect hardly repaired hundreds of movies. So long as freedom, so let's do it as yet. I think that long guns should have also long preview, logically, is not it?:)--Pandolfini (talk) 11:22, 18 August 2015 (EDT)
