Revision as of 20:28, 12 April 2013
The first unknown revolver looks like a Colt Python, the last one looks like a Colt Trooper Mk III. --Funkychinaman 06:36, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- Thanks! Revolvers (and shotguns) are my weak point. I agree that Silveira's revolver is Trooper Mk III but I'm a little in a doubt about the first revolver: Pyton has a shrouded rod, and the first revolver seems to has an open rod. Greg-Z 06:53, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- Oh, I see now. It's definitely a Colt though. --Funkychinaman 06:57, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
The unidentified rifle looks like the M14. --Funkychinaman 08:36, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- It seems to me that the barrel is significantly shorter than on M14. Or is it the result of the angle of view? Greg-Z 08:46, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- I think it's just the angle. --Funkychinaman 08:55, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- Agree. Thanks! Greg-Z 08:58, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
- I think it's just the angle. --Funkychinaman 08:55, 20 June 2012 (CDT)
Tanks
The 'Scorpion' tanks look more like M24 Chaffee's--The Mercenary 11:17, 21 June 2012 (CDT)
- The turret on this tanks is placed in the rear part of the hull, which matches Scorpion but not Chaffee. Greg-Z 11:47, 21 June 2012 (CDT)
- The turret doesn't look right though, and it's possible that the turret is pointing to the rear of the tank. The film was also made in the Philippines, a country that didn't use Scorpions, but did use M24s. --Funkychinaman 11:55, 21 June 2012 (CDT)
- Philippines used Scorpions, according to Wikipedia. But the version about the turned back turret fits good. OK, I'll correct the page. Greg-Z 11:58, 21 June 2012 (CDT)
- Whoops. I didn't think they'd use both. --Funkychinaman 12:33, 21 June 2012 (CDT)

Thompson
Are you sure that's a M1928A1? From this angle, we should be able to see the bolt actuator on top of the receiver, and probably the cutts compensator as well. --Funkychinaman (talk) 16:28, 12 April 2013 (EDT)
