tethys:

The machine pistol I was thinking of was the Mauser 1896. Here's one with a wooden grip:

v/r,
zed

(EDIT: Please note that the holster also fits the Mauser 'Broomhandle' better than any other pistol I could readily recall)

(EDIT: Here's a really good look, if the link'll work)


I don't know if that's the gun or not, but I think it'd be pretty cool if Wash toted one of these bad boys...

I get the feeling the blue is just a really weird lighting thing they've done in post, if you check out the rear door it's still the original colour, as it the floor at their feet.

Though I'm undecided as to the new design, I surely hope Serenity is still the same colour she was when we left her, it kinda looks like a bad star trek set as it is here...

Remember, the "Ariel" pay-off all went bye-bye in the following episode (save a dozen apples). Niska got all the extra money they had on them in exchange for Mal's ear and Wash.

But like you said, it could be the doing of the Lassiter pay-off.



I like to believe they didn't leave Niska's skyplex empty handed. Maybe they grabbed a few things (money if they found it) like that nice Earth-that-was Tiffany Lamp and such. Fetch a nice price from collectors too, I am sure. I mean, hell, they shot everybody they saw, and Niska ran off like a scared bitch, and the fact that Mal/Inara wished he had killed him might indicate Niska got on a ship and left, thus allowing for some looting and pillaging. I know if it had been me, I would have grabbed a few "souveniers" my own self. :)

Because...

tethys:

Yeah, I'm not keen on it being a Mauser, 'cause of the target grips(?): they seem larger than on any example of the Broomhandle I can find . The perpendicular handle and that boxy holster are the keys to the mystery though. I can't imagine a standard pistol that'd stay in that oversized dice cup, without falling to and skittering across the deck everytime you turned around good.

I've got to leave for work in 30 minutes or I'd review the Trash episode myself; but I do believe it might be the dreaded Lassiter.

Wash with an old, non-functioning gun... Does that seem right to you?


Amateurishly,

zoid

I dont recall saying this..... I only commented on the why men wear pants thing.

I will say that in my opinion the gun that Wash has holstered is a flare gun. If Serenity encounters problems he could summon help with it.
