Re: Guns in Movies and TV shows

I was watching Alias when some dude fired off a round or two, then pointed the gun a bit more, then after that he cocked the hammer back for emphasis. now THIS is useless, right? (as it should have already been cocked back from the previous shot)

Yes. Then again there's never any recoil when firing guns in TV shows or movies either. *shrug*

What about the pumping action of a shotgun? Same deal?

I have no experience with shotguns so I may be wrong here. With pistols the gases from firing a round is enough to expel the cartridge and cock the hammer for the next round. However with a pump action shotgun I guess there is no self-cocking mechanism but that's not a problem with semi-auto/auto shotguns.
