MeTV had the "Cannon" series on just a few weeks ago. And like the OP I liked the series and watched it as a kid in the 70s. I think he had a dick special. Thats what it looked like to me.

I also like Jim Rockford "The Rockford Files" and have the complete set on DVDs. He also carried a DS when he totes a gun. I liked it on one episode when he gets his gun out of the cookie jar where he keeps it and the woman asked,

"are you going to shoot them?"

"Naw,you don't shoot 'em, you just point it at 'em."

What great shows they had back then.

Also Cannon had a phone in his car. Rockford had to use payphones but did have an answering machine.
