House 2x03, "Humpty Dumpty"
What? So I'm biased.
1. Chase thinks that House's nastiness to a given person (i.e. Cuddy) must be linked to his having had sex with them, despite the fact that House is generally nasty to lots of people, almost as though he had some kind of empirical evidence in this respect.
2. Who is House nastier to than Chase? NOBODY.
I'm just saying.
Also, after poking through several screencaps and bugging![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
daveamongus for expert analysis, have determined that the gun Don carries is pretty definitely not the FBI-standard Smith & Wesson 1076/NMS, but may be a Glock and is, regardless, closer to correct than what David Boreanaz is toting over on his show.
Anyone else care to weigh in with the gun fu?
Don and gun in Sniper Zero.
Don and gun in Dirty Bomb and in action in the same ep.
ETA, courtesy ofteneagles and pro_f_iler's gun fu: Probably a Glock 22, which is the new standard FBI weapon. And according to a tripod.com cite with 'conspiracy' in the domain name (which my library fu tells me not to cite, but, hey, I haven't had breakfast or put in my contacts yet, so let's be sloppy):
The G22 and G23 are .40 calibre semi-automatic pistols. The .40 Smith & Wesson cartridge was developed after the FBI decided to transition to higher-powered weapons following the "Miami Massacre", in which the death of FBI agents was blamed on thei underpowered sidearms. While the agency first acquired 10mm pistols, many agents were not comfortable with the recoil, and the weapons were unreliable and flawed. Until S&W developed their shortened version of the 10mm, (the .40 S&W) the FBI was forced to purchase yet another batch of guns, (their 9mm SIGs) until finally ordering Glock's new .40 pistols to issue to their employees. The G23 is a slightly more compact version of the G22, and is the most commonly employed FBI handgun, though agents may still choose to carry the larger G22 or a number of older weapons. These weapons, particularly the G22, have also become the most commonly purchased Glocks in the U.S. law enforcement community (users include the DEA), and the .40 S&W caliber has achieved massive popularity throughout America.
So apparently the Smith & Wesson 1076, the Sig Sauer 9mm (YAY SCULLY! ahem.), and Don's Glock 22 were all "FBI Standard" within a relatively short span of time and are all acceptable to the FBI.
This still does not explain why I don't have an icon of Don'stight jeans holstered gun.
