    Great show.....back on TV starting on Wed. I saw a few ads and I'm trying to ID the handgun. Is it a Walther PP?

    Thoughts?

    Glock
    (FWIW, I was kidding about it being a Glock. Probably a HiPoint, as the Soviets couldn't afford much and had a lifetime warranty.)

    Yes it is although the rear sight seems to be a little larger than it should in the closeup (I own a PPK/S). There are a couple of pistols that are similar enough, like the Bersa for one.

    Unless they are two different guns I would say the second is a CZ82 just based on the rear sight.

    Based on the shape of the triggerguard and the frame in front of the guard, I don't think it is either a CZ or a Makarov.

    Quite possible it is two different guns. Hollyhood prop people can be notoriously loose in what guns they stick into actor's hands. I've seen many cases where the gun has changed with the camera angle in the same gunfight.

    Maybe 2nd pic is showing a FEG PA-36
