SIG P225 disassembly

I actually have the pleasure of owning a superb SIG-Sauer P-225 (actually a former German police service P6) and I can tell you that is not the way it is disassembled. To disassemble a P-225/P6, who first retract the slide fully to the rear and secure it there with the slide step catch and then turn a lever which precipitates the removal of the slide and, subsequently, the barrel and recoil spring. Granted though, this is not as cool as how he did it in the movie.SAWGunner89 15:26, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

Walther P5C

Dosen't the gun change from plain black to two tone when he is walking towards the door, in picture 4 ? AceV

No, it's just the lighting. -MT2008 19:52, 17 February 2010 (UTC)

o ok thanks, I though it did, it looks like it. AceV

Manheim's Gun

Can anybody identify it ? AceV

Manheim laying on his bed, notice the gun on the table next to the knife.

Here's a closeup that might help: media: http://i311.photobucket.com/albums/kk460/Heeler_2008/enhanced.png

Looks like it has one of those silver serial number plates in front of the trigger guard like SP2009 shown in the bank safety deposit box. I'd almost say for certain that's what it was but the end of the barrel seems to protrude slightly from the slide like most glocks do, but then again it has the rounded trigger guard like the SP2009 and I don't know of any glock that has the rounded trigger guard... they're all recurve or "concave" rather than convex at the front.

Lots of SIGs

I noticed while wtaching the movie (and from the list here) that nearly every character uses a SIG of some sort. Is this coincidence, or is it like in End of Days where Glock paid them to?

It think that's since it's partially shot in Germany and sigs are very common guns there. Usually the German goverment lends weapons to films because they are nice. (: And then when they shot somewhere else i think they wanted consistancy. 81.235.147.222 09:35, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Weapon handling

Many of the articles on imfdb comment on the actor's weapon handling, such as bad grips or closed eyes. However, I couldn't find any on the Bourne movies and I was wondering how Damon's weapon handling was. Having never handled a weapon myself, how does he look? Are there any scenes where he looks particularly good, or other where he looks particularly bad? What about the other actors?

There's something about Damon in these movies that makes him look good, perhaps something about his speed or decisiveness. Is that mostly crap? Does he really behave onscreen like a highly trained black ops guy?

Possible Taurus

Bourne disarms an embassy guard who tried to arrest him.

The shape of the weapon show above seems possibly the Taurus show later in the film, anyone else agree?--Jackie.45Cal 12:26, 12 December 2010 (UTC)
