Shotguns
Custom Wilson Combat Smith & Wesson 3000
A Custom Wilson Combat Smith & Wesson 3000 with a pistol grip and vertical foregrip is carried by Det. Ricardo Tubbs (Philip Michael Thomas), in the 3rd season of the show.
Info about this custom shotgun:
Wilson Combat has been given permission by Smith & Wesson to modify the M-3000 and sell those modified versions. Wilson cuts off the barrel to 7.9 inches (and other barrel lengths are available at customer request), shortens the action bars and magazine tube, moves the barrel mount back, and adds a forward handgrip on the pump slide which can also be folded flush with the rest of the pump slide if desired. The resulting weapon, called the Executive Protection Shotgun, uses synthetic Pachmayr Vindicator furniture and has no buttstock. Despite the short barrel, the shot spread is not extreme due to the tight choke used on the barrel; however, muzzle blast and noise are extreme. Of course, the Executive Protection Shotgun requires a lot of taxes and red tape to legally acquire, and is therefore used only by certain bodyguards and military and government concerns.

Trivia
In what seems to be the worst continuity error ever. Crockett is seen driving his Ferrari Daytona Spyder in "El Viejo" episode 7 of season 3. Despite the Daytona Spyder being blow up in "When Irish Eyes Are Crying" episode 1 of season 3. The reason for this is "El Viejo" was the original premiere episode of the season 3. But the producer felt "When Irish Eyes Are Crying" made for a better opening for season 3. Ironically, the reason for this switch is because they thought the Daytona being blown to bits would be better suited for the season premiere.
During stunts where the real Ferrari Testarossa could be badly damaged, a stunt car would be used. The stunt car was a De Tomaso Pantera with a Testarossa body kit.
