Title: Tuco's gun
Post by: GBU on June 08, 2004, 12:39:40 PM

A friend asked me this question and I was ashamed that I couldn't answer.

In GBU, Tuco creates a gun from seperate parts of different guns. What parts were taken from what guns?

That scene is my favorite in the whole movie!  Pretty awesome detective work, DAmbrosia!!!  I love it!  I agree with whoever posted that Eli Wallach should have own an Oscar for that role....  

Now, what's the brand name on that sombrero Tuco left the store with?!!!  Heh! Heh! Heh! Heh!  Just kidding!
