+'''''[[The Walking Dead]]''''' is the television post-apocalyptic horror series adaptation of the Image graphic novel series co-created by Robert Kirkman. The television series follows a group of survivors led by former Sheriff's Deputy Rick Grimes ([[Andrew Lincoln]]) as they struggle to stay alive after a pandemic has nearly wiped out the human race and has caused the deceased to be resurrected as flesh-eating "walkers". ''The Walking Dead'' premiered on [[AMC]] in the US in 2010 and aired for 11 seasons until 2022.  The series was initially adapted for television by [[Frank Darabont]] (''[[The Shawshank Redemption]]''), who also directed several episodes of [[The Walking Dead - Season 1|the first season]].
-==Colt Python==
-Sheriff Rick Grimes ([[Andrew Lincoln]]) carries a six-inch barreled [[Colt Python]] .357 Magnum revolver as his duty sidearm in the series. Of note is that when Grimes fires the gun in a very tight, enclosed space (in this case, inside a tank), it actually severely disorients him and hurts his hearing, unlike most movies or shows that have people firing guns indoors or in other enclosed spaces without being phased.

-A [[Glock 17]] was one of the sidearms of the police in the first episode. One of the deputies was told to have a round chambered and also (incorrectly) to make sure the safety was off.
