Rick's gun Walking Dead no spoiler

Sconnie · Oct 12, 2014

OK, I know this is a S&W forum but everyone seemed to think Rick is carrying a Colt Python.

And dancing around any spoilers...at one point he mentions, in the new season opener a .44 magnum.

So, either the writers don't know a Python is a .357 (most likely) or he is really carrying a Colt Anaconda .44.

Trivial pursuit perhaps but inquiring minds want to know. LOL

Saw a kimber 1911 that he was using ---

I thought that was weird, too. He told the Terminus hipster there was a .44 magnum in the buried bag (where his trademark Python was).

I love the show despite its many flaws. They do seem to slowly be getting a little better with gun stuff.

R1V3R5 · Oct 13, 2014

All the stuff I have seen (AMC forum, Walking Dead wiki, etc) say it is a Colt Python. So either it was a mistake by the writers or he also had a .44 magnum.

They got a blued smith from the guys on the highway when rick and Daryl were reunited. I'd have to go back and look, but if memory serves me right, I think michonne had it and shot one guy with it, so it is indeed possible for there to also be a .44 in that bag.
In one of the very first episodes, rick mentioned to Shane about Only having a couple rounds of .357 left for the python when they were rooting around in a bag.

ETA: found a pic online of the one I mention.

He coulda lied to the guys at TERMINUS...
I don't remember a machete with a red handle --- Then again I frequently can't remember if I had lunch.

How about Carol? Is she redeemed or what?

it's a tv show...with zombies...things can't be perfect...and they are closer than many other shows...

he put his usual carry in the bag and pulled out the 1911 to take into terminus...i do believe that i saw another "michonne style katana" in the bag...my question is though...how did michonne have only the handle of the katana in the train car to make the double wood pig sticker?

Leatherhead23 · Oct 13, 2014

I remember a few seasons ago he referred to it as 'The Python'. Cant remember if he was talking to Shane or Carl.

Muss Muggins · Oct 13, 2014

He mentioned several things that I didn't see in the bag. Think he was making more of it than it was to give a better reason for hiding it . . .

GrayGhost99 · Oct 13, 2014

Personally starting early in last season it started looking more like he was carrying an anaconda than a python. I own one of each and have medium size hands and the anaconda looks huge in my hands and that was how it started looking last year while the previous seasons it looked more proportional.

So true, but noticing those little things and inconsistencies is part of the fun. Smushing zombie heads is so cliché don't ya think...

I think the "handle" that Michonne used to make her new weapon was the sheath (or whatever it is called) rather than the handle of the katana itself.

It would be boring but swords of varying types should be the weapons for all of them to start with. They need to raid a few antique stores...LOL The style and finesse as the group hacks and slashes it's way through the zombie hoards.

Oh man, I gotta get outside....perhaps to the range. Yea that's the ticket.

Good show last night, it doesn't matter what he carries.

the ringo kid · Oct 13, 2014

And to think that the show (as they said on The Talking Dead--is just starting to get interesting. Glad to se a character from season 1--the black guy who resued Rick) is coming into the picture now.

Ya it looks like Morgan has regained his senses, I am sure this season is going to be good.

Remember they never mention ZOMBIE'S on the show. Walkers, bitters etc. but never zombies. I guess the leftover from terminus will reappear like the governor did. They should have listened to Rick and took them all out.

Yea the way they are killing off major characters they need to bring some back that aren't walkers.

just jim · Oct 14, 2014

Guess the opener set a new record for viewers. 17 million people watched it. The others don't know what they are missing. Lol.

Im still angry that they had Darryl, kill his (then) zombie-turned brother. If they kill Darryl off? im done wiith the series,.

just jim · Oct 14, 2014

Daughter had her picture taken with Darryl and Merrill at a Portland comic con. Said they were very nice people. New one in Feb that has a lot of WD stars in it, I am old but I may just go LOL.

Love to meet Carol.

HOUSTON RICK · Oct 14, 2014

I have not watched any program regularly since MASH (and I am not talking about reruns), but I have to admit that Walking Dead is slowly becoming something that I look forward to watching. Looks like a Python to me.
