BS fantasy thread but the Cuban sandwhich thread got me thinking about Miami so if you were Crockett or Tubbs but you had access to post final season 1990-2023 firearms which primary, secondary and which holsters would you use for Crockett and for Tubbs if you’re in charge of selection including shotgun since Stubbs seemed to like that - if you’d pick a substitute of similar size not shotgun for Tubbs, what would you opt for? Or if you prefer to stick to 1980s era which would you have them use as better options than the show?

I read somewhere he didn't take to firearms training like Don Johnson did, so they gave him a shotgun most of the time. |

Crockett gets to carry a Bren 10 because it’s still a Gucci gun, and he’s the real star of the show. Tubbs carries a Glock 17, because it’s boring, just like him.

Quote HistoryI guess I wasn’t fair to you were hypothetical. Crockett will carry a shoulder rig with a natural leather finish because when you are as highly skilled, and Unkillable as he is, you can opt for style over substance. He’s always gonna be faster on the draw than the bad guys, even pulling from a shoulder rig. On second thought, Tubbs carries a South African Mamba. That way, the real gun geeks will know that there’s something up with his character. He must’ve spent some time in Africa, but he keeps real quiet about it. It doesn’t matter though, because anybody who would carry an exotic piece of hardware like that, has definitely been places, and done shit. |

At the time they used new, expensive, and flashy guns to reinforce their undercover personas as 80's drug dealers.
To keep with that theme applied to modern drug dealers, they should carry stolen glocks fitted with wish.com auto switches and Hi Points, both loaded with a random assortment of different ammo types. Draco pistols in the trunks for heavier work. |

I could never tell why she got pissy about some actors, I assumed either jealousy or she didn’t get along with them. She used to go to dinners with Robert Evans and Jack Nicholson pretty often and she hated Nickleson but I don’t recall her ever working or meeting Don Johnson so not sure how she got a dislike for him. I guess I should ask. She said she’s be sending me some photos from her television days so I guess I’ll ask her. |

I could see Crockett with some sort of Staccato… but in stainless or color case hardened by Turnbull for the bling factor. He’d get an SR-16 SBR to keep in his SF-90.
Tubbs would be outfitted with a Korth NXS 8, and either a Benelli M4 or MP7 depending on the episode. |

If I was doing that kind of work?
Beretta 92XI and a Steyr AUG with 16 inch barrel. I tried to write a story about a private detective in that era but it never went anywhere. But I was able to decide on a Steyr GB for their sidearm. But if one is going for a Gucci pistol from that era it's probably a practical impossiblity to out Gucci the Bren Ten. Mebby an HK P7? |

I think NBC had it free on their phone app but I kept putting off watching it under the assumption it would be available streaming forever. I guess I should see if it’s still on there as it’s been since 2020 pandemic I got the phone app |
