I was watching Gun Stories or something similar on the Outdoor Channel a while back and they ran an episode on the S&W Model 29 aka "The Dirty Harry" and how it more or less languished in gun stores until the movie came out then it was the "must have" gun of it's time.
I was at the theater last night and saw a trailer for Skyfall,the new James Bond movie coming out. The Walther PPKs was featured prominently which got me to wondering, will the re-emergence of the "Walther PPks chambered in 9mm short" as the required carry pistol for 007 create renewed demand for the old classic?
So other than Dirty Harry, have other movies increased noticeable market demand for certain guns?
