- I can confirm the part about having a custom 45 built. Anyway, at least one.
- The gunsmith that builds most of my stuff built a stainless Colt for Seagal
- last year. I asked what movie it was for and he said he thought it was for
- Seagals personal use. I also know others out here who've built other stuff
- for him as well. I think he feels technical realism in movies is important.
- Maybe he does the same thing many of us do when we view a movie and spots a
- major exit from reality...Hey, it could happen :-) I still would rate his
- movies well above the other stuff thats out.
