Frank Farmer's ([[Kevin Costner]]) favorite pistol is the [[Browning Hi-Power]]. In the screencap ,in which both of Farmer's pistols can be seen together, the Hi-Power appears that it might be the Hungarian [[Browning Hi-Power|FEG PJK-9HP]]. Which is essentially a clone, but I can't determine this. So I'm identifying it as a [[Browning Hi-Power]].
