During the scene in which Jules ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]) and Vincent Vega ([[John Travolta]]) interrogate, and ultimately execute Brad, Jules is seen holding and firing a chrome [[Colt 1911]] pistol while Vincent fires his [[Star Model BM]].

==Star Model B==
Hitman Jules Winnfield ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]) carries a 9mm [[Star Model B]] throughout the film. Some audience members and critics have been confused due to the Model B's visual similarity to the .45 ACP [[M1911 pistol series|1911 series]] (like Vincent's Auto-Ordnance M1911A1), which has led to some listing Jule's reference to his gun as "Mister nine-millimeter" as a ''goof'', but as the Star Model B is a 9mm gun, it is not a mistake.

Vincent Vega ([[John Travolta]]) carries a 9mm [[Star Model BM]] throughout the film. While visually the [[Star Model BM]] is almost identical to Jules' ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]) .45 [[Colt 1911]] it is a much rarer pistol of Spanish manufacture. Despite this rarity the [[Star Model BM]] can generally be had for a third the price of a [[Colt 1911]] of similar condition, and would have been much less expensive than Jules' ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]) chromed and pearl gripped [[Colt 1911]]. While Vincent's ([[John Travolta]]) [[Star Model BM]] has the imposing look of Jules' ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]) [[Colt 1911]] its 9mm punch lacks the power of the famed .45 [[Colt 1911]] - the correlation between the two character's pistols and the two characters themselves could not have been accidental on the filmmakers parts. While Vincent Vega ([[John Travolta]]) attempts to play the same powerful role as Jules ([[Samuel L. Jackson]]), his performance is a comedy of errors. He accidentally shoots and kills Marvin, he disrespects Vincent Wolfe, Mrs. Wallace overdoses on heroin while under his care, and he is ultimately killed with his own gun (a silenced [[Mac 10]]), by the man he was sent to kill, while coming out of the bathroom.
==Smith & Wesson 4506==
Marsellus Wallace ([[Ving Rhames]]) pulls a [[Smith & Wesson 4506]] with adjustable sights after surviving being struck by Butch's white 1980 Honda Civic at a stoplight. Butch ([[Bruce Willis]]) also is seen with the 4506 during the following scuffle with Marsellus.

Afterwards, they remark on the size of the man's "hand cannon" and Jules comes to believe that God deflected the bullets.
