I was wondering as a watched an episode of Miami Vice. Regarding the weapons used by Crockett and Tubs, before the producer of the program decided to put it on the air was there any research done on the real weapons used by the real vice police or do the actors go to the prop department and choose the weapon they like best?.
We have talked many many times in this forum that a 5 shot revolver is ok for us civilians that need protection agains a BG in the wallmart parking lot, but if we where to raid a crack house most agree that a high capacity autoloader is in order.
Tubs in the Tv program uses a bodyguard Jframe revo for most of his tasks, sometimes as back up to a small shotgun but most of the time its only a jframe. Crockett carries a semiauto 10mm I think I may be wrong, how close to real life are those choices?
