The bullets are so big and the gun is so powerful that seven shots is all you need. (Sam’s pistol, by the way, can fire seventeen shots in a row.)Īnd people who like the 1911 say this is fine. 45 caliber Colt ACP rounds - which means it can only fire seven shots before he has to reload. Sam goes for a more traditionally low-maintenance pistol, and I kinda think Dean may clean it for him a lot of the time.)īut anyway. In “Hello, Cruel World” Dean interprets Sam’s gun-cleaning as sign that he’s in a bad headspace.īOBBY: Well, at least he’s not curled up under the sink.ĭEAN: Yeah, no, he’s just sitting there silently field stripping his weapon.Īnd Hallucination!Lucifer sees it as evidence that Sam’s suicidal. He tends to do it when he’s feeling helpless or scared. (I do think that for Sam it’s more a stressed-based compulsion. Firearm maintenance is probably relaxing and zen for him. They have a reputation for needing more maintenance than some modern pistols, but considering how often Dean’s just sitting there, casually cleaning while chatting with Sam, he probably sees this as more a feature than a bug. The 1911 was the service gun during WWI & WWII, right up through the Korean war.
So… I’ll just jump right in, shall I? Dean’s M1911A1ĭean carries the baddass American pistol. Ryan Steacy has been the SPN armorer since the beginning of the show, and he’s put some really nice thought into the boys.
So I can’t find much proper meta about the weapons (and even the SPN wiki was making mistakes.) But I think there’s a goldmine of good character stuff here. Or: why Sam has more guns, but Dean is the better shot
