Not sure if any of you gentlemen noticed, but Mike Ehrmantraut

Usually you can grow to anticipate, not be phased by it much. Or who knows, maybe they're not even firing and digitally adding in the affects afterwards.

>>33744619
what is Hollywood?
most likely he didn't even fire a blank (for safety) and they just told him to squeeze and blink, which is why he doesn't flinch and as you noted, it seems like a conscious blink, any muzzle flash was added in post production.

I want Mike to be my grandpa.

That's my guess too. Man, is that M40 a thing of beauty. Something about the camo stock just gets me about them, they look so old school.

I've liked Jonathan Banks ever since his days on Wiseguy.

I think I'm the only person who remembers that show.

I feel old.

Pop-pop wants you to get out of the pool right now.

Pretty sure they've alluded to him being a former soldier/marine in Vietnam with particular experience using that rifle, plus he's a total bad ass, plus its a TV show

So not surprising

I don't recall any military experience but he was a cop.

Yea, you shoot long enough and the blinking goes away.

I don't really get what he's saying, but look at that intensity. I imagine it's great for calling your shots.

>>33746253
He literally references carrying the rifle in question in Vietnam during the scene when he buys it.

Pay more attention to the shows you watch

That episode aired months ago, I don't remember that shit

>tfw want to be the old illegal gun seller.

He was top tier. Told it how it is, but still tries the up sale.

>>33744619
Its more than common for TV shows to simply CGI every part of the gun firing and have actors fake everything else.

>>33748167
Yes and no.

He alludes to it, but specifically says "wish they would have known that before sending it into a jungle..." Referencing wood swelling in moisture.

While it can be inferred that he is speaking from first hand experience, it is not entirely accurate to do so. Mike is clearly a knowledgable man, and even the dimmest 12yr old autist on this board can tell you would swells when wet.

Personally I do believe he is speaking as a former soldier, as it explains how his skill set is vastly superior to the average beat cop. I will however not claim it as fact as it is never blatantly stated.

>>33744619
Literally who?

>>33750136
What! Have you not seen Breaking Bad or the new spin off Better Call Saul?

Johnathan Banks plays as Mike Ehrmantraut, a retired Philidelphia beat cop with a shady past and has ties to criminal organizations. Seriously both shows are on Netflix, go watch them and you will love them.

Banks is an antigun faggot that supports left candidates specifically to get gun bans put in place.

TV is awful, I'd rather shitpost on /k/
