::::Thanks for the second link. That 1911 draw and the "Mozambique" were executed perfectly. When I first saw that, I just sat there in awe at the awesome tactic I had just seen. Good thing he kept his 1911 ready to fire and that he was extremely quick! Otherwise he would have been toast. -[[User:Gunman69|Gunman69]] 15:55, 7 August 2009 (UTC) | ::::Thanks for the second link.

Glad to see that you guys are interested in Mr. Zubiena. I shhok his hand many years ago at a gunshow. I remember him back in his prime and he was something else. I imagine he's still pretty impressive. I saw "The Hit List" when it first aired in October of 84. I was sixteen and his gun handling skills took my breath away. I remember at the time thinking that [[Miami Vice]] was something very different. At the time television cop shows just didn't bother with technical accuracy. The overall show hasn't aged very well when watched today, but | Glad to see that you guys are interested in Mr. Zubiena. I shhok his hand many years ago at a gunshow.

He did have some unusual shooting methods, but if you want to see Jim comment about the scene with his first victim on the hit list, here's the link: http://www.thegunzone.com/software/zubiena2.html I thought you guys might be interested in this. :) -Gunman69 06:12, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- The first thing I noticed about his gun skills is when he draws the 1911 to shoot the guy in the yellow shirt. I hit the snap button when I saw him draw and the snapshot I got was him firing the 1911. Which is the first shot on Miami Vice's 1911 list. He was super fucking quick. I wonder if he was asked to fire from the hip with the Franchi and the Ruger. Both had folding stocks, could have been fired from the shoulder. It looks like he was big on safety too, always wore glasses whenever he handled the weapons. Very cool info about him. Predator20 13:58, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
- Read that link a little better, it hurt to fire the Franchi with the stock extended. Predator20
