Re: Thomas Magnum's Gun - Some Documentation
As most all of you already know Magnum used a 1911 in 9mm but it was always stated it was a .45. 9mm blanks worked better than the .45 blanks according to the movie people. Miami Vice used the Bren Ten as carried by Sonny Crockett, well kind of. Since there were no 10mm blanks his Bren Ten was actua...

Re: Thomas Magnum's Gun - Some Documentation
The 1911 has been around for over 100 years now. Magnum, although he used other handguns, the 1911 was a great choice for his character. They always stated his 1911 was a .45 but even in the beginning of the show it has him shoving a magazine into a 9mm 1911. The magazine is a dead give away. TM's 1...

Re: Magnum's 1911
The 1911 is one of the best gun designs ever. I have a couple of Series 70s in .45 ACP and a Series 80 in .38 Super for shooting live rounds. However I also do WWII reenacting and wanted a 1911 to shoot blanks. I first had a Springfield Armory 1911 in .45 but it just was not reliable enough. I then ...

My blank adapted 9mm 1911
I have been a big Magnum fan since the beginning. I have always loved the 1911 .45/9mm pistol he carried. Since I now also do WWII reenacting I thought I would blank adapt a 1911 in 9mm and see how it works. I had previously done a .45 but was not pleased with the way it worked. My 9mm blank adapted...
