I remember after they kill the old guy, Alonso puts a derringer in his hand and puts two rounds in the guy's vest, one of which breaks through the vest and wounds him. Could you get a shot of that MT? - Gunmaster45 05:20, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
- How's it look now that I chopped off the widescreen bars? - Gunmaster45 05:23, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
- Much better! I will see about getting a shot of the "stingers" used by Roger (and used by Alonzo to shoot the other guy in his vest). -MT2008 18:13, 3 December 2008 (UTC)
Smith & Wesson 4506 "gangsta" style?
I recently rewatched Training Day and saw the scene where he dual wields the Smith & Wesson 4506s and holds the one in his left hand sideways. I'm wondering if it was just because of stereotypes or to deflect brass away from hitting his face? because I noticed that he's holding it sideways, and a little upwards to tilt it away from him
Yeah I was just thinking the same. Gangsta-style is indeed holding a firearm sideways, but since he wasn't using any kind of technique (Macedonian shooting?), it's safe to assume he was shooting like that for either the gangsta-style or for practical reasons(in this case, brass deflection).Xarex 23:49, 4 December 2010 (UTC)
I always assumed it was a double purpose thing. It makes him look more like a thug and less like a cop, and it also stops brass from smacking him in the face. I've used a similar technique when shooting two at a time, although I was holding the left gun "Half Homie", at about a 45 degree angle. GLOCK10mm (talk) 14:45, 2 April 2014 (EDT)
