About the PT 92
Is John Doe's sidearm ever seen clearly enough that it is possible to say that it is a Taurus PT 92, and not a Beretta 92?

- Yeah, it's seen clearly. Here's a picture (a tiny one) from when he has the gun to Detective Mills' head:

- You can see it has the frame-mounted safety, which characterizes Taurus PT92-series pistols, rather than the slide-mounted safety of the Beretta 92F. Although the rear sight seems pretty tall, so it's possible it might actually be the similar Taurus PT99 (which has adjustable sights). But again, definitely a Taurus-type 9mm. -MT2008 16:30, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
Good Movie
Saw it on uncut TV (the only good way to watch a movie on TV), the ending is a real shocker, the story is very good.
I really liked what Det. Mills (Brad Pitt) said to John Doe in the car:
"I've been trying to figure something in my head, and maybe you can help me out, yeah? When a person is insane, as you clearly are, do you know that you're insane? Maybe you're just sitting around, reading "Guns and Ammo", masturbating in your own feces, do you just stop and go, "Wow! It is amazing how fucking crazy I really am!"? Yeah. Do you guys do that?"
Obviously not a main page worthy quote but still funny. I think Pitt's 1911 is awesome too. - Gunmaster45
Mill's Springfield 1911
Is it just me but don't you think Detective Mill's Custom Springfield 1911 pistol is a tade too much for a regular homicide Deterctive? Mill's 1911 is a weapon he should be using either as SWAT or Narcotics officer. A standered Glock, Sig or Beretta would seem more logical. Unless Mill's actually thinks he'll see more action and use his Custom Springfiels 1911 working in Homicide. - Choi117
I can understand your point, but since he's a detective and no longer on patrol that doesn't mean he has to give up his firearm of choice for something more compact or for something more "regular". Also, Mills might not wanted to give up his 1911 since he is so comfortable with it and doesn't want to start over with a different firearm. Shadow45
What does him thinking he'll see more action have to do with his weapon choice of a 1911? Being in "more action" he would have chosen a glock or a sig for higher capasity and way way way better reliablity. The 1911 is not the best choice for a duty weapon but it does have a flashy and historical personality to it that a cool guy detective might crave for vanity reasons, his character is no Jeff Cooper so I say the weapon choice is for cosmetic reasons and not practicality.Spades of Columbia
