You have to understand from the Propmasters point of view. They might have a crew that's maybe versed in firearms but not very experienced so it is a lot easier for them if the handguns use all the same ammo. The show is about the story if you are noticing only the firearms maybe the show is not that great. Several here like myself have taken care of shows with multiple caliber weapons with no problem. But it does make it easier on us or the prop crew having a single type of pistol ammo to deal with.
