Writing.Com General Discussion

It helps to do some general research of the area, and era, that you plan to set the story in. This is even true if you plan to do something sci-fi / fantasy / outside of a strictly Historical piece.

I mean, to give an example, let's look at the 1997's Titanic, love story aside, let's look at the guns used in the movie - M1911 (a standard one would have been more historically accurate), some Webley revolvers, and a small Remington revolver. These are very plausible, some of the crew even owned/used Webley revolvers - one even had an FN Model 1900 pistol. What wouldn't be plausible would be the use of Glock pistols, and Colt Pythons, or anything clearly made after April 5, 1912.
