Editing Talk:Petra Janecek's revolver

==Weapon type==

I'm not a hundred percent certain, but that revolver looks to me like an old Wild Western-style [[wikipedia:Colt Single-Action Army|.45 Magnum Colt Single-Action Army (aka Colt Peacemaker)]], or perhaps maybe a  [[wikipedia:Colt Python|.357 Magnum Colt Python Revolver]] or a lastly, a [[wikipedia:Smith & Wesson Model 686|Smith & Wesson Model 686]]. I did as much research as I could based upon the appearance of the weapon, though I wish I/we had a little more data to go on. Click the links, look at the image, compare them side-by-side, and you decide. My personal opinion, it's probably one of the latter two than the initial. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 13:40, 23 April 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330

-::Thanks for that. I just did. No idea when to expect a reply, but hopefully it'll be soon. We need a weapons expert more qualified than myself to try to identify this revolver. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 14:10, 23 April 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330
-:::I like to think of myself as a Gun Guru, but revolvers and pump-action shotguns look so similar to me. If Schlerf doesn't reply we could always ask the opinion of someone from http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Main_Page this amazing place.[[User:Sith Venator|<span style="color:green">Sith-venator Wavingstrider</span>]] [[File:Fett helmet.jpg|20px]] ([[User talk:Sith Venator|<span style="color:blue">Commlink</span>]]) 14:13, 23 April 2014 (EDT)
-::::I like that place too. I visit it frequently to look up action and war films to find what weapons were used. And I too also like to consider myself a "Gun Guru" (Weapons Expert sounds better personally), as I have spent a large part of my life studying modern weapons throughout the history of warfare. But I'm kind of at a loss for what this weapon is. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 15:40, 23 April 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330
-:::::I'm not confident enough in my old western gun knowledge past "Single Action Army or similar" for this either. I'll go ask on IMFDB (I'm also there often), but before I do, is the main picture the only shot of it in the comic, or are there others, even tiny or not well seen? More detail and angles are always better. [[User:Alex T Snow|Alex T Snow]] ([[User talk:Alex T Snow|talk]]) 01:10, 24 April 2014 (EDT)
-:I have to throw out here one more possibility: that the weapon pictured is probably a [[wikipedia:Colt Anaconda|.44 Magnum Colt Anaconda]]. Probably. Still waiting for some more second opinions for other weapon experts. --'''''[[User:Xamikaze330|<span style="color:Black; font-family: Halo;">Xamikaze330</span>]]''''' <small>['''''[[User talk:Xamikaze330|<font color="Blue">Transmission</font>]]'''''|'''''[[Special:Contributions/Xamikaze330|<font color="Green">Commencing</font>]]''''']</small> 17:43, 25 April 2014 (EDT)Xamikaze330
-== RE: Rollback ==
-Just a message directed for the anon who's adding that the revolver is a Colt, as the rollback option doesn't let me input a reason. Unfortunately, Halopedia doesn't do speculation, so we can't input any of this info into the page without a valid source. Additionally, remember to use the preview button while editing!
