I have a friend who is a competitive target shooter, and he's always complaining that the shell casings are the wrong size during shootouts.

Of course now he's got me doing it too...



Movies always abuse the gun-cocking sound, and/or have characters cock (or pump, for shotguns) the guns at inappropriate times because it looks cool.


Or the "click, click" empty revolver sound on a semi-automatic pistol. This pretty much only happens if you're evil though.

The slide just never seems to lock back like it should unless the hero has two guns that need to be thrown on the ground before he/she walks forward defiantly and grabs two MORE guns.


If you think that's bad count how many gear changes happen in a car chase/street race in most big films that have manual cars.

You must have only read the comic, but not the comments about down-shifting for turns. :P


Did read the comments, but they still always find an extra gear to shift up into ;)
