When Perry parks at the car dealership, prior to when he fires the gun in Garvin Jr.'s office, he is able to pull straight in without any car blocking him. But when he and Garvin Jr. come out, Perry's car is blocked by a car the employee is polishing.
However, car lots, especially in that era, were often a hotbed of movement. It's entirely possible that in the few minutes Perry was inside, an employee moved the car behind Perry's car and started polishing it, which would necessitate Perry talking to the salesman, who then would try to get a sale.

The stock footage of downtown Las Vegas is much older than this show, which was produced in 1958. Binion's Horseshoe, which opened in 1951, is missing. The sign for the previous business on that lot, the Hotel Apache, is clearly visible. The Golden Nugget opened in 1946, so this stock footage dates between 1946 and 1951.
The gun that George Castle uses to kill Glenn Falkner is an obvious prop gun. The gun is an automatic pistol; when Castle fires, the slide does not cycle back and forth, and no spent cartridge is extracted.
While Perry is on the phone to Paul in front of the apartment house, a black & white Police car drives up. It has no city emblems or identification; just bare white doors...
In the last moments of this story, Perry hands Della a check. Her voice says, "Want me to fill it in?," but her lips don't match the looping.
At 48:50 Burger calls Eva to the stand. When she stands up she says nevermind Mr. Beacher, not Burger.
Burger states to Tragg that it's been established that a call at 8:27 from the manager of the Lodestar brought a prowl car to the scene. He then asks the Lieutenant what time he personally got to the scene. Tragg replies, "About 8:30, give or take a couple minutes." This implies Tragg believes he might have arrived on the scene about a minute after the call came in. this is highly improbable as it would have taken him at least a minute just to be notified of the call, leave his office, and get to his police car. He should have said something like, "About 8:30 or a couple minutes later." and even that would have been dubious in Los Angeles.
Burger labels the three guns as holster gun, vault gun, and junior gun. But he knows only that there were three guns, without knowing where they were or who had them, so he could not possibly label them as such.
