Default Clint Eastwood film capping

I'm taking every Eastwood film I own and capping it now, starting with none other than the Dirty Harry series. No offense to Rafa but all of his pages covering Eastwood films are kind of poorly made and need a serious over haul, so I'll be taking those on. Some I don't own but I'll get them somehow.

Anyway, I personally believe the rumor that the .44 Magnum was in fact a Model 25 .45 LC, since .45 caliber looks close enough to a .44 (bigger in diameter in fact) and is a simple blank to aquire. For the other films, the whole "piecing together .44s" sound logical. I know that for the 4th film the AMP Automag was piece together from a gunsmith's parts, one real so Eastwood could shoot it and imitate the recoil, the second was a blank gun for the film. Anyway, I've heard people say his gun has the 8 3/8" barrel, yet it looks like a 6". What's up with that?
