i kinda think the 'close to the face' hold is more about getting the camera shot right - main actor with intense look holding gun purposefully not really a proper hold excepting some rare occasions... ---------------------------------------- Proverbs 27:17 - As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another. | |||

Holding close to the face in movies while standing up and with the target across the room is for one obvious reason: dramatic effect. Are there conceivable situations in which the shooter should pull the handgun back as close to one’s body as possible? Of course. If the target is close enough that he might grab the gun or deflect it somehow, then the gun should be pulled back out of range of the target’s reach as much as possible and to help control it if it is grabbed or struck in a deflection attempt. ► 6.4/93.6 “I regret that I am to now die in the belief, that the useless sacrifice of themselves by the generation of 1776, to acquire self-government and happiness to their country, is to be thrown away by the unwise and unworthy passions of their sons, and that my only consolation is to be, that I live not to weep over it.” — Thomas Jefferson | |||

It does not matter how you hold a TV gun. It never misses, never runs out of ammunition, and always causes those who are shot with it to be propelled forcefully backward as if stuck by a pie truck. Unless it is a special "A Team" TV gun. Then no matter how many rounds are fired, no one is ever hit, but it does cause jeeps and cars to fly into the air and flip, but still without serious injuries. | |||

The one where you see people holding the pistol really close to their face is some trendy new style called Center Axis Relock. I'll stick with a Isosceles type, thank you. | |||

Having seen that scene, if I remember correctly, he was working his way through a building looking for an exit. I've been taught this when clearing buildings. The compressed position allows quicker lateral transitions and you don't give up any time, as opposed to having your arms already extended, breaking the shot as your already prepped trigger is pressed on the Push-out No, Daoism isn't a religion | |||
