Factual error: During the LAPD gun exchange program, an explosion happens from (according to the show) claymore mines being in the trunk of a car. In reality, this wouldn't happen as Claymore Mines are very stable and safe. The explosive used, C-4, is shock stable and temperature stable. The mine will only go off when used with a detonator.

Trivia: Baily works for LAFD Fire Station 118, the same fire station on the 9-1-1 series; they even use the same engine for both shows.
Question: Every episode when the officers set up their "shop," they take two "war bags," a shotgun and a non-lethal shotgun. Why is the non-lethal shotgun never used?
Answer: It's been used several times. Nolan's first T.O., Bishop, used it during a home invasion call for one example.
