#The best all time movie as far as correct firearms handling is
#"Tremors". If you haven't seen it, check it out; especially the rec
#room scene.

Whoever was the director or weapons advisor for the film ought to be
commended (and offered a lot more work).

I understand that Reba McIntire (sp?) actually does some shooting in
real life, but her survivalist husband in Tremors is, in real life, an
contributor to HCI. (Michael Gross).

I still catch my daughters quoting lines from the film while working
around the house.  (My wife is mystified by their references to "some
common household chemicals in the proper proportions".  I'm not going
to tell her...)
