Almo Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Some examples: 1) "Do you have a permit for that gun?" No, this locale doesn't require one. 2) "We're going to match the bullet to your gun." No, you're only going to match it to the model of gun with the same type barrel unless my gun has a nick in the barrel that's marking the bullet. 3) "Put the safety on." No, this is a revolver and doesn't have a safety. 4) "That's a Smith and Wesson and you've had your six." No, it's a Colt 1911 and I have eight; bang, bang. By the way, those last two are from James Bond movies where you'd think they knew better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rennD Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 From Law and Order, not a direct quote but, "The casing comes from a Glock 9MM..." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almo Posted March 5, 2023 Author Share Posted March 5, 2023 Good one, rennD. I thought of another one from Monk: "It was a scope for a Weatherby Mark V." No, it was a scope for any rifle. And a common one that really bugs me: "I have a hostage; drop your guns and slide them over to me." And they do it. I don't know of a single police officer who would willingly give his gun to a criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a square firing pin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcfoto Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I cringe when they cock the hammer on Smith revolver. Do you know what double action means? Also remember an early Grisham novel when the good guy “cocked the hammer on his Glock… “ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almo Posted March 5, 2023 Author Share Posted March 5, 2023 I also like when they're holding a gun on someone, threatening them for a long time; then they rack the slide actually putting a round in the chamber to show that they're serious.

Dr. Phil Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 It's not just the "cop" shows. I hate when the guys on the "shooting" shows show them firing in slo mo and every time the gun fires, they blink! Pretty hard to call shots that way. Pretty sad for "professional" shooters. But then, I always enjoyed the gun handling on the A Team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty normal for a mini 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miranda Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 some movie mel shoots a smiley face in a target. His eyes were shut before the flash. every time. the movie/entertainment people are getting better... the actors in "the blacklist" have fairly good finger off trigger pistol handling. the blinking... aah they are better than mel anyway.Vid I saw of a fellow known for being in our type of competition. eyes open while shootin fast. He looked pretty maniacal.... so maybe blinking looks less threatening? and I did not find the vid on utube miranda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, the guy that can shoot a smiley face at 25 yards can't hit the perp at 10 yards with 20 shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almo Posted March 27, 2023 Author Share Posted March 27, 2023 I also like when a team of police searches a house and they keep crossing each other with their muzzles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
