Okay found a good screencap on imdb. Our hero is using what appear to be a stainless steel Colt Python with a 6" barrel.

I'm definately looking forward to it.

And AMC is in the habit of NOT cancelling awesome TB series. Breaking Bad and Mad Men for example.

This is true.

I thought his Python was nickel, but it's kinda hard to tell with the little trailer.

You know it's hard to identify the difference between the matte stainless steel and Colt's proprierty matte nickle finish. It was a special nickle finish that was developed by Colt and it wore like iron. I used to own a Colt Trooper Mk III with that nickle finish. I had the revolver for twenty years and the finish never did show any real wear. Stuff was amazing and from a distance you would think it was stainless steel. But I went with stainless steel just because. I figure the story takes place in the south (humid and hot) and it makes sense that a cop would want a stainless steel revolver due to the heat, moisture, time spent in a holster and exposure to things like body fluids.

I just watched all six episodes of the first season yesterday night, and another this morning. Highly enjoyable series, even though I'm not big into zombie fare (which seems to make me unique amongst American gun owners).

What's really funny is that I also watched "Chris Ryan's Strike Back" last week, in which Andrew Lincoln (the actor who plays Grimes in "The Walking Dead") had a starring role. I remember thinking to myself, "Where I have I seen this dude before", and then being surprised when I looked him up on IMDB and found out he was an Englishman.

I'm getting tired of the zombie themed stories. This one showed more character development, but I wished it had more shootouts
