If the opening theme sounds suspiciously like the NBC Mystery Movie theme, it's because both themes were written by the same composer at the same time.
Glen Ford's character Same Cade and Daren McGavin's character Courtney Vernon reminisce about their growing up together, going to high school, and then serving as fighter pilots in Korea. They also talk about McGavin's character dating Loretta Swift's character during high school.
Glen Ford was born in 1916, McGavin in 1924, and Loretta Swit in 1937. There was no way these three would have been in high school at the same time. Additionally, Ford would have been 34 years old, too old for a fighter pilot, at the start of the Korean conflict.

The gun that Courtney Vernon is using in his attempt to kill Sam Cade is a Wilkinson Arms 9mm Terry carbine. The Wilkinson Terry Carbine was a semi-automatic, blow-back operated, carbine chambered in 9mm Parabellum. It was produced by Wilkinson Arms from 1970 to 1998. It had a cone-shaped flash hider and a wood or sometimes synthetic stock.
