Once upon a time in movies a villian was happy with one gun and he held it in the conventional manner and did ok not to mention the old cowboys who could cycle six shots through a single action revolver and while riding a horse,

I watched Transporter 2 last night and there was this scantily clad young thing who had a pair of machine pistols, christ do they waste some ammo, must come a fortune

They writers must think there villains are underarmed and now even the good guys are all toting not one but two pistols, anyone who has ever fired an old Colt 45 Auto will know why they are called a hand cannon, but firing two simultaneously?

Changeing mags seems to be forgotten in movies and whats this hold the gun on its side crap while they try to pop a cap in your ass? how you sposed to sight the thing, I dont know movies are really getting way out there now, I blame Bruce Willis in Last Man Standing!

Bring on Transporter3

Personally I think the Lobby scene in "The Matrix" is the best shoot-em-up to date. That and the mexican stand-off in Reservior Dogs!

To this day you would hard beat to beat the scene on Saving Private Ryan when the first boats hit the beach and ramps come down, that was pretty graphic stuff

I once put 3 liners of leftover trace through a 30 cal ( burnt out barrel ) off the ACV swing mount , then used my palm to push the barrel away while cleaning up the brass.Ooouuch talk about sizzel.
