The Gun and the Barn. Things You Missed

Published December 3, 2016 · Updated July 6, 2022

Wanna get more confused? The gun that Delores digs up is NOT a LaMat.

The LaMat has a shotgun barrel with a distinctive rounded crown under the main barrel, it also has a very distinctive curved trigger guard and a small lever { we see MIB use it } on the hammer to switch barrels when firing it. The gun that she digs up is a 45.cal Colt Single Action Army revolver with a 7.5-inch barrel, also known as the “Cavalry Model” The thing that you think is a shotgun barrel is the housing for the ejector rod which is used to eject empty shells from the cylinder. The Colt also as a rounded trigger guard and a different shaped grip. This is the SAME model gun that she finds in her dresser { has dirt and wear marks on it } and takes from Rebus.
Wanna get more confused? Delores aims the Colt at Rebus and fires, we see the flash from the muzzle of the gun { not from UNDER the barrel }, Rebus clutches his throat with his RIGHT hand but we can’t see the barn door behind him. Delores fires again, and again the flash comes from the muzzle { not Under }. Then we see Rebus clutch his throat AGAIN with his LEFT hand and we see a large pattern of small holes { made by a shotgun round? } in the barn door around his head. We do not see Delores and Rebus in the same frame when she fires the gun, only when he falls to the ground and she still has the Colt SSA in her hand. When Delores runs out of the barn the pellet holes are not there, just blood stains.

How can this be?

A COLT SSA REVOLVER THAT FIRES SHOTGUN SHELLS HAS NEVER BEEN PRODUCED!

Soooooo who shot Rebus? Did Delores not shoot him in that repetition because of the weapon restriction? Did Arnold’s command override the restriction and she shot him in the throat with a bullet from the Colt in one-time frame and then she or someone else { MIB } shot him with a shotgun round from a LaMat in another time frame?

This episode has caused spinal fluid to leak out of my ears.
