Trivia: Throughout the movie, "Dr. No," James Bond (007) is seen handling and using a pistol referred to as a Walther PPK. But the props actually used in the film were three different model pistols. What were they? Guesses are allowed.

And the answer is...(drum roll)...the first incorrect prop is the Walther PP that is given to Bond in exchange for his Beretta. It is erroneously referred to as a Walther PPK, a slightly smaller version of the Walther PP. Bond actually uses that Walther PP throughout the movie.
Then, in the scene where Prof. Dent tries to kill Bond in his hotel room, Bond shoots Dent with an FN Mauser 1910 fitted with a suppressor, supposedly his Walther PPK, but the props dept. did not have a suppressor to fit the Walther.
Then, in the shooting scene on the beach of Crab Key Island, Bond is seen shooting at the dragon tank with a Colt 1911, but after a few shots, it morphs back into his Walther PP.
Finally, in the book, Bond surrenders a Beretta Model 418 in exchange for the Walther, but in the movie, Bond is seen giving up a Beretta Model 34 or Model 35 to his boss.

Hap if that's the case you'll love "For Your Eye's Only". The girl on the movie poster with Roger Moore started life as Barry Kenneth Cossey. He then became Caroline Cossey AKA Tula. She wasn't a love interest in the movie rather one of the girls. I guess once you put Bond on a poster with a Pellet Gun anything goes.
PS I had a friend a commercial artist at the original shoot. He said Tula had to wear her bikini bottom back wards for some reason.
