Revolvers Are for Amateurs: Difference between revisions

* [[Zig Zagged]] in ''[[Ghost in Thethe Shell]]''. In ''Stand Alone Complex'', Togusa is frequently criticised for carrying a revolver. In the ''Ghost In The Shell'' manga he's convinced to carry a semi-automatic, in the third movie (the one based on the Anime series) he's finally {{spoiler|received cybernetic implants and switched to a semi-automatic, although he keeps the revolver as backup}}. It's implied that he thinks [[Revolvers Are Just Better]] or is simply old fashioned (old fashioned family values, uses a gun almost as old as he is, few cybernetic implants).

* David Della Rocco in ''[[Boondock Saints]]'' is given a "six shooter" when his mafia bosses set him up to be killed--unbeknownstkilled—unbeknownst to Rocco, he was being sent to kill nine guys instead of the two guys they told him he would have to kill. He later uses the gun in his first vigilante murder.

* Noah Bennet in ''[[Heroes (TV series)|Heroes]]'' uses a snubnose revolver the first time he tries to kill a person with special abilities.

* Invoked in the first ''[[The Godfather (Videovideo Gamegame)|The Godfather]]'': You are a newcomer to the mob and the first gun you get from your mentor is a snubnose. You only get better weapons later.
