I guess it could be done like: "Dunham fires her Glock 26" but that seems a bit vague. But maybe vague is the point, although it's hard to tell somebody the context and episode without giving the plot away.
And since many people will come to the site trying to find out what gun was used in a particular scene, NOT naming the scene makes it hard for them to figure out.

It's a slippery slope.
No. It's called, "get the Season and episode number". The viewer can look up the rest on IMDB if they want to drill down further. There are myriad ways to describe usage of a gun without blurting out spoilers. Some actions are so predictable that they are NOT spoilers (Actor A shoots at MONSTER with her GLOCK 26). that's not a spoiler. or "Walker Texas Rangers shoots at Mexican Drug Cartel thugs with his Beretta 92FS ...." Again, not a spoiler since that information doesn't reveal any BIG secrets.
