Silencers...

Especially those magic mufflers they use on rifles, shotguns and revolvers.

If change is inevitable, why aren't we prepared for it?

Desert Eagles. They are ugly, heavy, and unnecessary.

Finger inside the trigger guard! Gets me shouting at the tv. Secondly, and this just makes me laugh, good guy aim vs bad guy aim. The bad guys could empty an automatic weapon and shoot a bazillion rounds while standing still at a stationary object and hit nothing while the good guys can run turn and while moving and the target is moving hit it dead on....

That is probably why you all don't realize that those are NOT Desert Eagles then. They are actually HK USP Match 9mm hand guns that have been modified. And NO you can't go to your local gunshop and buy them, so don't ask :packin:

I have always been intrigued at how they can have massive shoot outs,dozens of people shooting inside a warehouse ,a gun in each hand,all large caliber,many fully auto,no form of hearing protection whatsoever...then they whisper to someone 15 feet away and that person hears them. :roll: whatever

By golly, I THOUGHT those were funny-looking Desert Eagles; but to tell the truth, I did have trouble concentrating on THAT pair of pistols.
