TV and Movies inaccurate Gun portrayal and use

[exo]

Totally fake gun, but I want one!
Maybe Red Jacket or Gunsmoke will make me one................for about $15k

Yessss, my screencap has circled the internets! Mwuahahahah. Now how do I profit from that?

Open range - final fight.
SAA with 9 shots or more

I have seen that scene so many times and never counted the shots, but you are absolutely correct. Except for that I thought this was one of the more realistic movies as far as shootouts go. They missed with a lot of shots and were constantly reloading, which is unusual for movies. LOVE the shotgun blast through the barn wall! Great scene!

Scarface, the final gun fight.

Tony fires about 200+ rounds out of a little 20 round mag from his M16.

 

[hurley431]

In the movie The Mechanic, when the main character is training his cohort, they do a slow motion close up of a round leaving the chamber of the rifle... and the round is a crimped round. It made me smile.

I love the show 'falling skys' where they make 'mech bullets' from some sort of special metal that instantly shoots through anything... and that everyone in Ma has full auto AK's....

bye-bye rifling

C'mon.....we're a GUN forum, and even we're not always right!



My late dad, who was an armorer in WWII, used to get all wound up watching grease guns fire from a closed bolt on "Combat!"....

From one of the Death Wish movies Bronson fires 475 Wildey and no muzzle flash and no slide movement but a great big Kaboom thanks to the sound effects dept.

I think the movie was Commando where Arnold was shooting a belt fed m-60 with no belt in it. he managed to get about 2-300 rounds out of it too... Impressive

I love it when people cock the hammer on a Glock

I love it when people cock the hammer on a Glock

Almost as much as I like when they take it off of safe

I think NCIS does a pretty good job of gun handling. Could be wrong though...

Rambo 2 or 3 when Sly pulls a LAW rocket to shoot at a Hind D, aims the LAW but actually pulls the trigger on a RPGS, then throws away the spent LAW rocket, all from inside a helicopter with everybody behind him not effected by the back blast.

I'm watching this stupid movie on TNT called "Kong: Skull Island".
Samuel L. Jackson is supposed to be an army colonel in the Vietnam era, on a mission to explore the mysterious Skull Island.
His sidearm appears to be a 1905 Colt .45acp.
You'd think he'd have a 1911, but it's definitely not, I can tell by the slide profile and locking wedge.

Only an 8 year old thread. Not bad.

Why start a new thread when an old one is still relevant to the topic ???

 

[MFSP101]

Don’t know the name of the movie. But Martin Laurence fires what looks like a Dessert Eagle at a tire. No recoil lots of flash.

 

[highlander]

Movie I Come in Peace Dolph Lundgren is holding a gun to Micheal J Pollard's head switching back and forth between Lundgren and Pollard gun model changes at least once.

 

[EMTDAD]

watching Unforgiven the other day... one thing I noticed, is the obligatory "last warning" cock of a SA hammer, a swing of a lever action, or a pump cycle of a shotgun all while the "shooter" is aiming at the other guy... seems it happens in tons of westerns. And with the long gun, nothing is ejected so the chamber is initially empty. Am I missing something? I can kinda see cocking the SA revolver, but a rifle or shotgun without one in the chamber???

Maybe it was a LeMat?

 

[ccm75]

The dude with the 12 ga pump shottie that always has to jack a shell because he's running around with no shell in the chamber...
And the 11 shot revolver. Where can I get one of those?

 

[mac1911]

The use of "point blank range" in the movies. Almost every reference to point blank range is up close or muzzle against the cranium.

Then theres always the never ending reloading gun .

 

[snax]

Both movies too many to count:
Wanted
Shoot em Up

 

[JDL]

Almost all of them and TV too

 

[Dennis in MA]

Both movies too many to count:
Wanted
Shoot em Up

Wanted was as comic book, wasn't it? And Shoot Em Up takes itself as serious as the Expendables series.

 

[johnnymac101]

Ride Along maybe the only thing accurate in this scene is when cop Ice Cube is asked "shouldn't we have goggles and earplugs" and he responds, "No, usually the bad guys don't give us enough time to put on all that kind of stuff!"

Right. Taking satire seriously is a failure of the viewer. This is like complaining about the coyote surviving a roadrunner cartoon.

I think Shoot em Up was intended to be an action comedy. Wanted... I just couldn't get into it.
