You know that thing they always do in the movies? Firing a hand gun in quick succession, out of ammo, hit the release, spend magazine falls out of the grip then they bang a live one in, rachet the top of the gun and carry on firing?

I really want to have a go at that! shoot

Apologies if all the terminology is wrong, I know less than nothing about this, just every time I watch an action movie and someone does this I want to try it! biggrin

Is there any where you can have a go? And shoot targets obviously, once reloaded. tank

Lara Croft style biggrin

Id quite like to have a go at sniping. I like the idea of the strategy behind it rather than just bang bang your dead.

I've got a Walther PPK*

  • ok so it's a Walther air pistol
  • But it still makes you feel like a secret agent/gangsta when you stuff it inside the waistband of your jeans ;-)

I've done this in Riga, in an underground bunker next to a petrol station.

Latvia is not too far away, and Riga is a beautiful city of great people, so that's a bonus.

Except the gun was loaded with one in the breach when she dropped the mag - so not really what you described.

Yeah, makes for a much quicker but far less badass process.

One thing that really irritates me about guns in Hollywood is the way, 90% of the time, the shooter will pull the slide back and then keep hold of it and ease it forwards. You should just pull back and release, let it forward under its own steam so it works at the correct speed. Clinging on to it is a nice way to either trap your hand in the breech or get a stoppage.

Well, no. Only if you remove/de-activate the magazine retention spring. This retains the magazine so you have to positively remove it.

Rather important - using a pause in a firefight to exchange a magazine with, say, three rounds remaining for a full one, you're actually going to want to keep the three rounds 'for later' . . . you started with certainly less than 50 (thinking back I used to carry 45), which is about how many Bruce Willis et al get through in the first 30 seconds . . .
