Everytime I watch a Roger 007 Film.. I get the feeling maybe it is just the way he acts..but I feel Roger seems like the BEST SHOT!

Just the way he holds the gun.. and stares you down..then pulls the trigger!!

It seemed the older Bond got (Roger).. Roger thought that hey I can't let these bullets waste! I must become a better shot then anyone esle with a gun or machine gun

Just watch Roger's last few Bond Films.. he seems to always go for a guys head.. OR with not much movement.. just POP a guy.. headshots or right in the middle of their chests!!:eek::mad::cool:

If you piss of Roger's 007.. he will just take you out quick!

has anyone else ever got this feeling.. when they watch the later Roger Bond films???

I don't claim to be a gun-nut, but I think Moore at least HELD his PPK better than the other Bonds. Being in the military, the guy must have had a lot of experience with guns, even though he claimed to be scared of them ever since having a rifle go off in his face after WW2.

Incidentally, I think Roger's bell-bottoms era gunbarrel reveals the most realistic way to point and shoot a gun.

Did I say AFTER WW2? Sorry, I meant "during."

thats very cool.. I never notice that or thought of it like that.. but your right.. I am going to check that closer next time..


but very true if roger had a chance to pause and aim.. your done! he seemed to always try for your head or upper chest/face area..

Okay. Firstly its a movie. Secondly anyone who knows jack about guns knows the old western style one hander might look good on film and usually results in the shooter missing the broad side of a barn...

Roger didn't serve in WW2, and he was an officer, i don't even think he was an infantry man. He said he spent most of his time having tea bought to him... If it's of any importance Connery was in the Navy. And Lazenby served in the Australian Army

And Pierce was part of the "Don't ask..Don't tell" division of the army

Even though I love Roger Moore's James Bond portrayal I have to disagree...

When I was in the military I was taught to kneel when firing a pistol, it makes you a smaller target.

well i like the way roger handles the gun, always have, but i have to say seeing pierce handle his p99 in his movies is good to, i just dont think his opening gunbarrel scene is all that great or realistic

It's not....

Really the only Bond actor who shows he really knows how to fire a gun was George Lazenby. Taking a knee in the gunbarrel is what a properly trained marksman would do in that situation.
