Thanks. Akimbo looks cool but is pretty impractical and kind of goes against the Combat Focus Shooting techniques I've been taught. - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

::Well, maybe Agent Smith but I doubt Hugo Weaving would pose too big a threat. In movies akimbo shooting seems more effective and cool looking, but in real life you realize you can't hit anything at more than 10 yards, and the gun in your weak hand bucks up higher than your strong hand because you can't control it as well. Blanks have no recoil so it seems to work better for guys in movies. I prefer the real life methods, where I can use good trigger control and grip control to unload a full magazine's worth of ammo in a few seconds and then reload in a second to repeat the process. It works well for Tom Cruise in ''[[Colateral]]'', and he didn't need two guns. Just give me a good trigger and a wide magazine well (and maybe some good magazine holders) and I'll show you something Neo can't do. :) - [[User:Gunmaster45|Gunmaster45]]

Screenshots

Justsaw your comment about A Better Tomorrow, and thought I'd inform you that .jpg files are the preferred format here, as they don't take up as much file space on the servers. Orca1 9904 02:17, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, that's what I'm trying now. Thanks!

Re:

No problem. Also, just an FYI: There is no such thing as a "Taurus Inox"; "Inox" is what Beretta calls its stainless pistols. Taurus just calls them stainless. Also, make sure you're using proper format for gun links, and the gun names should be the same as what we call them on their pages. We prefer everything to be standardized as much as possible. -MT2008 00:20, 19 April 2009 (UTC)

Matrix

Well, I own all of the movies on DVD so I kind of wanted to make the series mine, if that's okay with you. I'll try to get them up soon, I don't have much left in my DVD to-do list. - Gunmaster45

Thanks

When I get around to it I'll upload some more unique guns. - Gunmaster45

Lightning rifle...

Any particular reason why you took out my addition of the lighting rifle? Tommyt 23:20, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
