Remember, all of these bad movies are where liberals get all of their "factual" information about guns... The same liberal filmmakers who hire technical experts on every conceivable aspect of the film cannot be bothered to get simple gun rules and handling correct. |

In one of the first episodes of The Walking Dead, Rick tells one of the deputies to take his safety off, and he does...On a Glock. LOLed a little. Ever catch how the governor shoots a Steyr AUG right handed with his right eye covered by an eye patch? Probably because the director though the AUG was so cool but they didnt have the left hand conversion for it. |

Meh. I don't want realism in movies. It would make the good guys job infinitely harder.

Shout out to "Zero Dark-Thirty" and "Lone Survior" for attempting to get get suppressed gun fire to sound right.

I once saw a movie that had a small but important Combat Scene in it. An M60 machine in the scene was shooting blanks. Seriously: The rounds being fed into the machine gun had crimps where the bullets were supposed to be: http://www.ppu-usa.com/ammunition/ammunition-blanks.jpg l don't mind that one too much. IIRC, even our beloved Black Hawk Down had that. |

I loved the guy in Sharknado blowing sharks out of the sky at 1/4 mile with a 9mm. That show was awesome.

For me the Army has ruined movies and TV forever. I was already a little irritated though that every gun has to do it's little clicky sound when the actor waves it around, every knife has to make a metallic swish when the actor waves it, and every time an actor is about to deliberately shoot someone they have to manually cock the hammer of their pistol.
I am particularly mad at FX for showing Archer firing an M16 with the safety obviously left on. |

I wish it didn't bother me. I saw two shots fired in Lone Survivor with the safety on.

My friends get upset when I start pointing things out... especially one of them who is a network engineer. But he does the same thing during dumb hacker scenes
People complain about movies based on what they're accustomed to. Car guys are picky about driving scenes, gun guys about shooting, etc. |

(no round in chamber) There is a reason for that, no drop safety ( or sear blocking the firing pin) as it would be called on the 870. Because police are prone to get into pursuit and crash, also once upon a time were allowed to ram fleeing automobiles people in LE decided that have a round in the chamber was probably not a good idea. Load magazines, chamber empty, hammer down (so to speak),safety on was called cruiser ready. However, once you get out of the cruiser or vehicle and are intent on making a stealth approach, you should have probably already chamber a round before leaving the staging area. |
