As much as I love the movie The Outlaw Josey Wales...there are some flaws.....but I overlook 'em.
Its just too damn good of a story.....the novel is worth searching out as well.

That country is my old stomping ground. We used to ride our bikes all over those parts. Very familiar to me when I watch the movie. Good times, all locked up to motorized travel now.

OTOH

Michael Mann, director of Miami Vice, Heat, Collateral, gets it right most of the time.

You can find clips on youtube of his actors running through live fire drills for the scenes in their movies.

In the Kingdom, he had Jamie Foxx and his team learn CQB the hard way. They had simunitions and they had to enter a maze filled with operators with paintball guns. They would come out, all covered with hits. "Ok, whadya learn? Try it again!"
 
Dale Dye is another Hollywood gun guy who gets it right...usually
That said the following may not have been his decision....
The use of the Marine Corps Sniper variant 1903 in Saving Ryan's Privates , does bug me a bit.

Excuse my ignorance Andy. Why? Should have been an 03 A3?

Only being in the firearms fun for 10 years has it's exciting parts, AND disappointing parts. Unfortunately, learning what guns don't fit in places can detract from the enjoyment. Then there's the excitement of recognizing guns in movies that I know from sight and those I actually own! There's a problem trying to identify guns in movies when I don't get to see them long enough, or in proper light, to ID them.

The Army Sniper variant in WWII was a 03A4...
Which was a 03A3 without sights , and a Weaver 330 scope* , Redfield JR mounts and special placement of roll markings...
*Some rare versions used a Lyman Alaskan scope...A few were issued with the Scope that was used on the M1 C and D rifles and even fewer had a Post War French issue scope.....

Lots of folks don't know there was a difference between the two variants used during the War and Army vs Marines!
Even more confusing is the various M-1 Grands, Funny Ol War!
Don't even get me started on Mauser Sniper conversions during the war!

I know that scene with our sniper. You get a pretty good look at that rifle.

Watching a show where people were being killed, stabbed, throats slit with a knife.

Every single knife sound was on steel. Yes, even a neck slit.

Watch the interview for Lord of the Rings with Christopher Lee some time, a former Oss Agent with wet skills, he really rips into Hollywood on Knife fighting and the various sounds! :eek:
