Talk:The Wire

The photo for the Remington 870 is a Mossberg 500

Note the magtube endcap and the fact that the Foregrip doesn't go all the way to the end. MoviePropMaster2008 09:00, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

OKAY. I saw this page linked from Lance Reddick, noticed it was a disaster area, and decided to help a bit. I added gun pictures, and CAN do links, but YOU(whoever built this page and wants to work on it) need to get screenshots, and need to work on grammar. I capitalized and corrected where I could, but honestly stuff like "superman-shit" doesn't fly, and should be changed by somebody else. To summarize: 1: Get screencaps. 2: Decide what those "various Glocks," "Desert Eagle" and "SIG P226/P228" are for real. 3: Links to gun pages, in the body text(description of how the firearm shows up). Thanks in advance. --ManiacallyChallenged 21:18, 5 January 2010 (UTC)

please keep the 'superman shit' its so funny and thats what omar does. also itssupposed tobe a quoter from chris (i think) later or in the next episode smish34

I am attempting to get this page in tip top shape. I've started to add screen caps (I'm currently rewatching the series and will cap as many guns as possible) and will try to condense/clarify the language where I can. MikePGS December 2010

Just added the category "HK USP" and a picture of Chris Partlow holding a gun. I'm not especially familiar with USP's so that might not be the exact model. Any correction to that post is welcome (if it is incorrect in the first place). Also this seems to add credibility to whoever made the comment under the CZ-75 heading that they used a USP for the killings instead of a CZ-75.MikePGS

Glocks

I'm not buying that the Glocks were Glock 22s and 23s. I have been watching this again recently and they always refer to their service weapons as nines. The best example for this is when Bunk is looking for the stolen pistol in I think it's season 3, he always refers to it as a "Department issue nine" when talking about it. --cool-breeze 11:13, 13 December 2010 (UTC)

Season 1

Can anyone identify this particular movie and the firearm? --Milkovich 13:37, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

Unidentified Revolver

"The Buys", Season 1.

Taurus 817 ULC?

Blued Taurus 817 ULC - .38 special

The whole scene was very dark, that was literally the best screenshot I got from it.

SIG-Sauer

I am not quite sure which one of the P22X pistols this is.

File:The Wire - S1EP9P220.jpg

"Game Day", Season 1.

--Milkovich 15:28, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

I would guess P226. --Predator20 18:01, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

It's probably a bit premature, but I added it as a P226 for now, thanks. --Milkovich 18:11, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

While Omar favored a .45 for his handgun choice, it looks like it has double stack bulges ruling out the P220. --Predator20 21:45, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

Remington 870/Mossberg 500?

"The Hunt", Season 1.

--Milkovich 20:13, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

It's definitely not a Mossberg because of the trigger guard. I'm not sure it's an 870 either. I thought it might be a Stevens Model 67, but I don't think the mag tube end is right. --Predator20 21:43, 7 March 2011 (MSK)

Can anyone identify the pistols that Omar wields as he robs the poker game? I couldn't get a decent screenshot but they can be seen in some detail in this video clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B5e3R5geMg0&feature=related#t=3m55s Thanks.

I think they are Ruger KP89s. --commando552 12:17, 23 March 2012 (CDT)
