My favorite (recent) James Bond scene is where he crashed into a river, or canal, crawls out, then pulls his little 380 out of his coat pocket and proceeds to shoot down a helicopter.

His guns were never my style.
I prefer the small Colt's instead.

So I would rather have his watch. Hey.........Those Omega's aren't cheep.

I did not see that coming, but I did literally laugh out loud.

Haha. I haven't seen any of the new ones, but that does sound unintentionally hilarious.

I remember a scene from the Brosnan days where he is driving a tank upright outside of the hatch and plows into a brick building and comes out on the other side. The camera pans back on him and not a speck of dirt on his tux with perfect hair.

Ok I was a little off. He didn't crash before shooting it down. He was shooting from a boat, which is even better than I remember it!

Things I have never seen:
The inside of a Chipotle
A Bond film with Timothy Dalton or Pierce Brosnan.

For me, the iconic BOND firearm is the......

Walther PPK, blue, in 7.65 mm (aka: .32 ACP).

OMG !!!! Say it isnt so !!!! LOL

The Much Loved PPK from all the earlier days, especially when used suppressed ( as they were meant to be) ended up selling way more of these pistols then they might ever have had the Bond stories never made it to film! His Pistol from Casino Royal is an even more modern and correct pistol, and they did an awesome job correctly portraying the sound of a suppressed pistol!

Wasn't he holding an airgun pistol in one of the main marketing pics for one of the older movies? Connery or Moore I think cant remember. Somebody was selling one of those pistols on here last year I think?

All I know is that if u are underwater and have a spear gun, u can kill anything.
