Oh, come on, Archy. That one ain’t your’s. No cheating.

In the new “Mummy” movie, Maria Bello is holding two Canadian Browning HighPowers. The one’s with the tangent rear sights. I’ll see if I can find a pic.

That one's # 69C8703, the handgun used by John Wayne's character in the 1974 movie McQ when he wasn't spraying lead around with one of Mitch Werbell's then-new Ingram M10 SMGS, reportedly the first motion picture use of the Ingram SMG. The movie gun had a *standin* double for filming backup, as is common practice in the industry, #69C8706.

Mine is # 69C8705, in about the same condition as the *famous* 69C8703, and pretty close in appearance.
