[QUOTE="Pulp, post: 2498764, member: 14195"] How 'bout John Wayne totin' a Colt SAA and a Winchester '92 rifle in a movie set in 1848? Or in a movie set right after the Civil War. The chase scene in "Bullit" where the bad guy has a '97 Winchester shotgun. Nothin' wrong with that, just struck me as odd. Since I'm a huge fan of the '97, I actually thought it was cool. In "Quigley Down Under" Selleck's 45-120 evidently shoots bullets at the speed of light. Three seconds between bullet impact and the sound of the shot. In "Lonesome Dove" when Gus is shooting at the Comancheros. You see smoke from his rifle and hear the shot at the same time. Seconds later you see the bullet kick up dust. I reckon back then the speed of sound and the speed of light were the same. [/QUOTE]
