I was watching a 1951 police drama this afternoon. Twice the dispatcher said over the patrol car radio, "suspect is armed with a blue nose revolver". The first time I said, "What!? Ten minutes later another crime had been committed and I heard it again, so there is not a chance he said snubnose revolver.
