Where to get a realistic gun?

I shot myself in the foot with a paintball gun during the safety briefing.

"I'm the only one in this room professional enough that I know I can carry this Glock .40"...*BOOM*

Hard to believe it's real. Like a comedy skit. The timing is perfect.

Could have been a lot worse. But it just goes to prove the rule "All guns are loaded".

Yeah it felt a bit like that (not physically) at the time....
Instructor: ...and remember, treat the paintball gun as if it were loaded and ready to fire at all times, keep your finger off the trigger until you...
[bang]
Dylan: Owww, shit.

That DEA agent is a dumbass. There are just some people that can't grasp the idea of how a gun works and how dangerous it is. I take people out to go shooting for there first time a lot. But when I do teach them I'm right behind them to make sure they can't do anything too stupid to endanger themselves, me or others around them.

But as far as trying to get some guns for a film I think that's been covered by others. The one short that I did that had a lot of gun play in it, we used real guns with real bullets. Only because we were out in the middle of the woods where we normally go shooting anyways.

Wait for the Scarlet camera...it looks like a gun.:bye2:

That made me laugh Glenn. But I don't let people I go shoot with hold a rifle as retarded as that girl was holding that one.

Man there is no end of videos of girls getting hurt by recoil on YouTube.

That one is lucky she didn't dislocate her shoulder.

This is something I just found and it shows how stupid people are...especially cops. Because they think they know everything and are the only ones trained enough to handle firearms...what a joke.

Shit. Good thing she's clearly a crap aim.

Reminds me of the Pulp Fiction gag when Vincent fires his gun inside the car.

Anyway, can anyone please remind me, What we need guns for?

 

[Dylan Reeve]

You need guns (in films) because they are cool. And you need guns (in reallife) because everyone else has one*.
