Can you please change the shotgun for Tubbs as you have identified the shotgun incorectly, It was a Mossberg modle 3000 modified by Wilson Arms Brunswick, GA and the serial number is MV1. Yes I can back that up.

Your going to have to provide more info, "I can back that up" isn't enough. A Mossberg 3000 looks to me like a re-badged Smith & Wesson 3000. --Predator20 19:45, 18 July 2010 (UTC)

Well this does NOT look like a Remington 870

The bolt and ejection port is NOT a remington. Remington ejector ports are rounded like a big Pill. Other manufacturers are more 'squared'. This is not a Remington receiver. MoviePropMaster2008 19:32, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Looks like a Smith & Wesson 3000 to me.-protoAuthor 19:36, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

"Baseballs of Death"
"Baseballs of Death" This is the best view showing the bolt that it isn't rounded.

Should I go with Mossberg 3000 like the anonymous user said or go Smith & Wesson 3000? Also the stock image I uploaded over Gunman's is the same image just enlarged. It would be nice to find a better photo. --Predator20 19:54, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Also wouldn't it be better to have this discussion on the Miami Vice page instead of an image talk?--Predator20 19:58, 5 August 2010 (UTC)

Here is some info I found about the shortened Mossberg 3000 by Wilson. "Wilson Combat has been given permission by Mossberg to modify the M-3000 and sell those modified versions. Wilson cuts off the barrel to 7.9 inches (and other barrel lengths are available at customer request), shortens the action bars and magazine tube, moves the barrel mount back, and adds a forward handgrip on the pump slide which can also be folded flush with the rest of the pump slide if desired. The resulting weapon, called the Executive Protection Shotgun, uses synthetic Pachmayr Vindicator furniture and has no buttstock. Despite the short barrel, the shot spread is not extreme due to the tight choke used on the barrel; however, muzzle blast and noise are extreme. Of course, the Executive Protection Shotgun requires either a lot of taxes and red tape to legally acquire, and is therefore used only by certain bodyguards and military and government concerns." I going to call it a Wilson Combat Mossberg 3000.--Predator20 23:40, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
