"That pistol is restricted for the use of Army personnel. It can’t be purchased or even owned—legally.” Mohr (Fernando Wagner) commenting on Pike’s (William Holden’s) M1911 .45 in _ **The Wild Bunch.** _ **A:** “You makin’ fun of me, boy?” **B:** [_Smiles_] Col Pitts (Larry Hagman) to German paratrooper in _ **The Eagle Has Landed.** _ ---
