The best time is when you go to the store and notice some of the cashiers using trigger discipline on their scan guns

Trigger discipline on the pneumatic staple-guns.

Also, chainsaws.

Poor trigger discipline with a chainsaw is cringeworthy. Since literally everyone will know and the dude practicing poor discipline is giving zero shits of their own personal safety.

Yeh every since I was trained to shoot guns I can't watch movies without noticing how unrealistic their handling of guns are. Also that theyre really fucking loud and there are so many times where I go "HOW TF IS HE SHOOTING THAT WITHOUT EAR PROTECTION" lmao.

My biggest pet peeves with guns in movies is the recoil, and also reloads, casings, and so much else. Brandon Herrera does some great breakdowns in Gun Builder Reacts. Also BRCC's Veterans React.

Mine is the endlessly reloading shotgun.

I remember when Hershel’s farm was over run on the walking dead how the magazine for his shotgun seemed to be dependent on plot tension.

Remember when a coked-out-of-his-mind Tony Montana fired off an entire arsenal's worth of munitions at an endless wave of cartel hitmen without ever reloading?

31 years later, we get John Wick. Amazing how media has evolved.

I have seen that clip four hundred times, and it never fails to amuse me. It’s exactly how movies use shotguns.

Don't forget the part where getting hit by a shotgun blast automatically sends the victim flying across the room or through a plate glass window.

I unironically do that. Not just scan guns, also spray bottles, cordless drills, and pretty much anything else with a pistol grip. It’s good practice.

Kinda sad to hear about what's happened since.
