The missus and I went to see the new Batman movie tonight. Yes, we chose a theater which permits CCW and of course we carried (like we do when we go anywhere carry is legally permitted). There's a nicer theater but they're posted so why give them my money?
The movie was ok but towards the end both of us saw an act of egregious gun handling and we spontaneously giggled in the middle of what was supposed to be a dramatic climactic fight. The police are throwing themselves at the Forces of Evil in a stupid human wave attack against bad guys with longarms and armored vehicles with crew served weapons (seriously, guys -- the tactic should be closer to Blackhawk Down, not Braveheart). Some high mucky-muck police officer actor in his service dress uniform has his slide lock to the rear on his sidearm as he's in the middle of the fight with a bunch of thugs with AK-47s. The actor then tries to rack the slide.
Cue chuckles from DW and I.
Someone should have taught that guy about emergency reloads. Racking the slide ain't going to fix it if its locked to the rear.

I also saw that and it raised an eyebrow.
ReplyDeleteAlso crew served weapons plus AK47's somehow lost to glocks.
