I love the way Hardwicke has Watson say, "My revolver, Holmes." In that way we know that Watson is seriously peevishly annoyed at Holmes, but also knows that Holmes gets caught up in his deducing and experiments and Holmes would still have used his revolver (instead of someone else's) even if Waston knew about it before hand and told Holmes no.
Wonder if Watson made Holmes clean his gun, or if he wouldn't have trusted Holmes to do the job right. (Technically the gun should have been okay after it's immersion, so long as it was thoroughly cleaned and oiled afterwards.)
