He fires it until dry then stores it in Glenn's backpack. Upon closer inspection, this appears to be a Non Gun replica. She later in the episode hands the pistol to Glenn Steven Yeun for his own protection when he and Rick make their way to the escape van, he does not fire it in the escape though. Andrea uses it in "Wildfire" S1E05 when making a fateful decision regarding her sister Amy. The handgun in the front of his waistband is definitely not the Glock he loaded earlier on which is in the back of his waistband at the small of his back.
Unlike the Glock, this pistol also has an external hammer. It seems to also have a different rear sight than the SIG featured in the earlier loading scene. In the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" S1E01 , a Mossberg is first seen during a flashback being used by Rick's partner, Shane Walsh Jon Bernthal during the shootout with the suspects in the overturned vehicle just before Rick is wounded in the line of duty. It appears again later in Shane's possession at the survivor camp and can notably be seen being used by Shane on the attacking walkers at the camp in "Vatos" S1E Once outside, Shane uses the Mossberg to blast down walkers as the group runs to the vehicles.
The Mossberg Persuader shotgun with extended mag tube is first seen used by law enforcement officers seen in a flashback chasing suspects in a car in the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" S1E Rick Grimes Andrew Lincoln can first be seen using the Mossberg Persuader in "Vatos" S1E04 , as it was packed in his bag of guns from the police station he dropped in the series premiere.
He uses this shotgun from the bag in the standoff with the Vatos and ends up giving it to their leader, Guillermo Neil Brown Jr. In the series premiere "Days Gone Bye" S1E01 , a flashback shows one of the suspects Chick Bernhardt that emerged from the wrecked car following a police chase using a Mossberg Compact Cruiser fitted with a door-breaching muzzle-brake. In the same episode, Rick also has one stashed in his bag of guns he got from the police station locker, the shotgun sports a walnut stock, a barrel without the raised barrel vent rib and possibly a shorter 20" Barrel.
He uses it during the subsequent episodes, most notably during the siege on the camp by the walkers. He also uses the rifle to rifle-butt T-Dog in a disagreement before Rick intervenes. The rifle is only seen for a brief few seconds when Rick and the others are allowed into their compound. Dale Jeffrey DeMunn carries what appears to be a Remington with a scope and Varmint Laminated Stock, he is seen with it in every episode usually slung over his back as he keeps watch over camp.
The deputy sheriff loses his right hand in Issue The Python is built slightly differently than most revolvers. Internally, the Colt is much more complex, which is both a burden and blessing. The complexity leads to improved performance, fantastic when facing a life-or-death situation. However, the Colt is one of the worst revolvers to own when it comes to the accessibility of spare parts.
The complicated mechanics of the firearm can be more susceptible to problems than simpler and more rugged revolver designs. Certainly in an apocalyptic situation, spare components would be tough to come by and the expertise of an experienced gunsmith would also be a rare find. Revolvers generally require very little cleaning and lubrication compared to other options, but if you neglect regular maintenance for too long, the results can be catastrophic.
Some types of problems are easily cleared in a revolver too. For someone that puts himself in situations like Rick Grimes, any malfunction could mean death, or zombification. Perhaps he rarely misses and can reload with unlikely-but-still-humanly-possible Jerry Miculek-like speed. The low ammo capacity is still a problem, but certainly less-so when the revolver is in the hands of an expert.
When you consider that the combo of the. Also consider the versatility of ammunition, especially in times of survival, when ammo is a hot commodity and the ability to fire anything is vital.
Assuming Rick has both. For picking off walkers at long-range, the magnums are ideal. If stealth is required, again,. Despite the availability of more modern firearms, the Python turns out to be not such a bad choice for hunting the undead. Ultimately, a good signature weapon is more than a practical tool for the hero. It helps to define him.

Well, this time, they made the mistake of letting me write a post. I hope you guys enjoyed it and I hope they let me come back! So, what do you think? Is the Colt Python a good fit for Rick Grimes or should he be wielding a different weapon?
