scenes to look at the hat lining and a couple of other things. Well,

frame, when Indy pulls the pistol from his waistband, right before he
grabs it, you can CLEARLY see that it is a Webley with the hard black
rubber (original) grips on a bird's head grip frame. It was NOT the
square butt grip found on the Mark VI's, so this is where I was
