I once saw on another website (I believe it was Marcos Magnum PI Page - now down because of some German copyright issues) a photo of the actual surfski used in the series. It was sitting in some warehouse that had a bunch of Magnum PI and Hawaii Five O stuff stored in it. It was kinda sad really. T...

Great work Golf. I loved the teeny tiny, "teeny tiny toy cannon". Where did you ever find a teeny tiny rubber chicken?

Very cool. :) How 'bout the hats? Are they pretty similar to the one Magnum is wearing? In the 80's those things were all around, but now it's difficult to find them. There are mesh hats, but in many cases, the mesh feels like a different material. You can get the spongy type that was popular back ...

Hey N1095A, I would be interested in the cap with the patch sewn on. Are you looking for a minimum number of orders before you purchase the patches and caps? I'm not sure yet. I just want to see what kind of interest there is for right now. Here's the proof they sent: http://i198.photobucket.com/al...

When I was in the 5th grade, the teacher was teaching her English lesson. I was not really paying attention. I was bored to tears, and my mind was at Robin's nest. She noticed me writing, and I didn't notice that she noticed me. I was sketching a picture of the (first) GMC Jimmy from MPI sitting in ...

I've been playing with the idea of having some patches custom embroidered. I've sent out some emails, and gotten a few replies. So far, the best price I've gotten is $167.50 for 50 of the patches. I also found the red and white mesh cap online for $8.00 each. I was just wondering how much interest t...

Usually movies and TV producers hire consultants. I guess they figured the general public wouldn't know the difference. Remember this was before DVDs and the internet. Water cooler discussions Friday mornings probably had little to do with proper weapons handling. More than likely they were about th...

I haven't seen that episode since it first ran, but I do remember that when Higgins questioned him, Magnum didn't say. It's been 20 years, you may be right. He might have confessed later on.
Isn't it funny, the things we remember for so long?

N, But he's LOADING the gun. Do military and law enforcement personnel point a gun at the ground when they are loading a clip into it? (Of course, in a helicopter, I think it wouldn't make any difference if one pointed it up or down -- a "mistake" in either position would have an undesirable effect...

While trapped in the elevator, Magnum tells Higgins that he has an uncle Otis who was an elevator repairman. When he was young, TM used to go along with him on service calls. Higgins suspects him of making up the story. TM later admits he did have an uncle who repaired elevators, but his name wasn't...

Eggggzactly!

That's obviously because they're trying everything possible to avoid doing it the right way.

Everyone on MPI at one time or other points their gun in the air. When in the ready position you always point your weapon at an imaginary sopt on the ground 10 feet in front of you. Never put your finger inside the trigger guard until you are ready to fire. MPI isn't the only show to ignore these ba...

http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Nic-Cage-Is-Magnum-P-I-6249.html? Please take a moment to read the article, and let 'em know what MPI's loyal fans think of casting Nicholas Cage and others as our guys. Maybe we won't be able to change their minds to using the origional cast, but maybe we can influenc...

Oops! Ya got me. I guess I'm not as big of a Bogart fan as Rick.
