Character mistake: Buffalo Bill's revolver is a double action, meaning did not need to cock his gun before firing it (you only need to do so with single-action revolvers. Cocking a double-action just makes the next trigger pull easier.) He could've just shot Starling. His stupidity got him killed.

I called it a character mistake.
He could also simply be lying in order to explain why he did not do whatever he should have after the 1st shot, since he was an easy target for the intruders and did not die in battle, which would have been honorable. Klingons are not the most honest of people.
Character mistake: A big deal is made about how to walk down the aisle. At home, George shows Matty it's left-together-right. Then at the church, Matty has it written on his hand, but it's right-together-left. Then Frank's assistant mentions it as right-left. But then as everybody is walking, they're strolling casually down the aisle as if in a park, with no regard to the whole issue.
Character mistake: When Dolph is looking at the logo for the Red Dragon brewery, he says, "That arrogant scumbag mother fucker. He put the yakuza iron claw right on the logo." But, the iron claw is not the logo of the yakuza. It's the logo of the specific syndicate run by some members of the yakuza, as Dolph stated after ripping open the shirt of that guy in the interrogation room. So, he just wrongly stated what the logo really belonged to.
Character mistake: When Bob is getting married, the minister says, "with the power invested in me." The proper phrase is "with the power vested in me."

Detective Nealy tells Kellogg, "As a matter of procedure, I have to inform you of your rights." Kellogg says she didn't do anything so doesn't need a lawyer. Nealy replies, "This is your right" and proceeds to inform her of her Miranda Rights. Miranda warnings are applicable to suspects/defendants who are in police custody (under arrest) and about to be interrogated, not voluntary witnesses. (00:03:02 - 00:03:57)
Character mistake: At the beginning of the movie, during "Provincial Life", we see a fat lady trying on a hat in a hat store. The sign over the window, in French, reads "Chapeau" (hat). The correct way to identify that store would have been "Chapeaux" (hats) or "Chapelier" (hatter).
Character mistake: When Sue Ellen first meets Rose (who says she's looking for Carolyn), Sue Ellen says Carolyn will be right back. Carolyn simply got up and left after a brief rude chat with Sue Ellen and never said anything about being "right back." Sue Ellen couldn't have known how long Carolyn would be gone for.
