Factual error: When Swagger is fleeing from the police in the car wash after being shot, the radio says that he is at a car wash at 9th and Girard. There is no such intersection. On Girard Ave, 9th street picks up south and north of that street.

Bob Lee Swagger: Not bad for a poodle shooter with a makeshift silencer, huh?
Trivia: When Swagger is recuperating from the makeshift operation, it's shown that he has a third nipple below the left nipple.
Question: In the scene where Swagger and Memphis go to talk to the old man, why does the old man look at their hands? What is he looking for?
Answer: Just to see if he's a working man with rough hands. Shooters get bad callouses on elbows, not so much hands.

Answer: He's looking for callouses on the hands. Professional snipers end up getting hard skin inbetween the webbed part of the skin between the thumb and forefinger because of constant rubbing on the trigger guard. By checking the hands, he could tell whether or not he was talking to a proper sniper, and in particular Swagger.

The webbing between the thumb and forefinger would rub on the stock or grip not the trigger guard.
