    The wife and I enjoy the Longmire series. The one thing that drives me bonkers is how inconsistent they are with the loaded state of Walt's 1911. One scene the hammer is down the next scene the hammer is cocked, the next it's down again. I have also lost count of how many times he draws his 1911 on a bad guy with the hammer down and it still goes BANG when he pulls the trigger without needing to rack it first or thumb cock the hammer.

    BUT this inconsistency is pretty common in a lot of TV shows and movies.

    Its just funny to see how many times in the same episode that his 1911 is changing its hammer cocked state magically on its own. Check it out the next time you watch an episode.

    You've overlooked the different grips and focused on the hammer??? I like it (guns in movies & tv) in general when you clearly see a Glock, then a Beretta for the up close.

    OR BETTER YET Someone pulls away, rides in on, or has a Harley sound and it's a friggin 250 off road.

    You get the sound of someone cocking the hammer...and the closeup is a Glock. Whoops. One of the Bourne movies used a Sig and a Glock in the same scene which changed depending on the camera perspective.

    I wish technology solved people issues. It seems to just reveal them.
