I really like this painting, but Harry's gun isn't quite right! What do you think?
It looks to me like the artist has melded attributes from both a semiautomatic handgun and a large caliber revolver. Harry's .44 should have a smaller grip and a longer and thicker barrel than what is shown in the painting.

I'm gonna have to go back and search through the books now. Nobody knows offhand what make and model Harry's guns were, do they? I know he packed a .357 Magnum up until Summer Knight, and afterwards used a .44 Magnum until Ghost Story. I always assumed they were Rugers (because that's what I own ), but was it ever mentioned anywhere?

(Also, me being picky, I assumed that they were Single Action revolvers because of Harry's preference for Pre-WW2 mechanics, but I don't believe that they were ever actually specified as such.)

I quite like this painting as well.

I really don't know ruger from colt or smith & wesson, but I do agree with your assessment of his use of first a .357 Magnum and then a .44 Magnum, both being revolvers. And I don't think the artist depicted either one very well!

I don't think Molly will have a wizard staff. Maybe she'll have one of those elecric chains like Elaine ;D
Hey, I just noticed that you found Molly's Thinkgeek model shot! (Yes that Actually is my baby girl! )
