I've said it before, I'll say it again. The man is actually turning into his characters. Next we'll see him stopping bullets with his mind.
SATANSTOPSCREAMING
there's a slam fire shotgun this guy might like, it allows you to shoot a shotgun faster with less effort, its the Ithaca (Right?)
MilesOnACar
And suddenly.... I'm turned on.

This is for John Wick 2, is it not? Those are his signature firearms in that film for the main action sequence. 1 had the KSG.

This is one thing that Canada lacks when it comes to guns..
Paladin308
We do have 3-gun in Canada, and can own any of the guns used here, though the magazine limits put a bit of a damper on the sport.

I saw John Wick (I) last weekend. Now I know why they didn't stand any chance at all.

John Wick 2: The Wickening was fucking amazing.
FreshWater13
JW2 was even better than #1. amazing.

Congrats, look at all those innocent stationary cardboard cutouts that he killed.
Cabreza
One day someone is actually going to kill Keanu's dog and John Wick will play out in real life.

imagine a look on his face once he realises that zombie apocalypse is not coming any time soon.

100% Utah, good job.

Shooting and moving drills are so much more fun, than punching holes in paper at an indoor range.

For once, I can relate to the neckbeardy creepers on here whenever a half naked lady is posted. Keanu makes me feel all hot and dirty.
Angelus193
Actually this was training for JW 2.

Did keanu get rich, spend a lot of time shooting and then decide to make a movie to show of his skills

Did he just combat load that Benelli?
zombiebatman
I combat loaded a Benelli one time back in college. Susie Benelli. We had English 204 together. what a ride!
Peteypoo
Hiiiiiyoooooo!
MetalSkeletal
You gotta be careful when you combat load, don't want to rush and have a misfire.
c4ifford
So just so you know he did this sport before John Wick.. he wasn't preparing - he was prepared.
distilledwill
When the inevitable robot uprising comes Keanu will be mankind's greatest warrior.

I wish I could drink a few glasses of bourbon with this dude. He seems so chill.
seventhcow
What would you talk about?
kenobijuan
Probably chill stuff.
QSlade
And music. I saw him in his band dogstar when I was in highs school.
QSlade
Probably his background in martial arts and why he got started in it. His personal views on the most applicable form of self defense.
cominginhot
he liked using that Super 90
aninjasbeer
That's called "3-gun" and it's a competitive sport that anyone can practice for and do. It's pretty fun.
aPurpleLiger
"Anyone"
OhMyGodWh0TheHellCares
I believe that's called "you killed my dog and I'm coming for you"
erischilde
i always wondered, does anyone train to fight like in a 3gun, or strictly for competition?
Whitetiger7654
Military does. Civilians yes people train but they'll never need it. Unless the zombie apocalypse happens.
erischilde
Whenever watched shows or docs about military training, it's so group based that these moves don't apply. But I figure real dirty "ops" /1
erischilde
Guys have to be that good, fast and effective... though they probably are way more... defensive? The speed and accuracy is amazing though/2
Whitetiger7654
I meant military in a sense of quick target transition, accuracy, and weapon transition. Switching from primary to sidearm.
JustAnotherPOG
For many people, it is a combination of both. Granted, very few will actually need those skills, but who *needs* to run a marathon?
Whitetiger7654
Agreed. Most do it for the fun of it.
TheBigBastard
I think three gun is pretty awesome but you better have the money for it.
GeneralSturgeonWarning
Typical price ranges?

Typical price ranges?
aninjasbeer
Yeah, assuming you've never shot before or have no guns already, sure. I've got at least 1 shotgun, 1 pistol, and 1 scary black gun so...
TheBigBastard
I have plenty to play too, but doing several rounds and picking it up as a hobby is not cheap either. Ammo costs and why many reload.
aninjasbeer
For sure, also barrel replacement, cleaning supplies, tacticool vests and belts and carry cases.
TheBigBastard
Then factor in drive times food, a place to sit. It is like autocross. You have to find it all yourself, which deters a lot of people.

Typical price ranges?
SpringToMyWinter
2-700 for each weapon, and at least most of a dollar for each round. Hourly/daily for range time, bundles of targets for a few bucks, 1/?
SpringToMyWinter
Couple hundred each for optics if you want them, probably another couple hundred in harnesses/holsters. I don't do this nor 2/?

Am I an expert, but:

aninjasbeer
Current ammo prices are at the floor of what they've been last decade. Overproduction due to scary Hillary taking our guns as POTUS.
aninjasbeer
Recently got .223, 9mm both for under .30 / round shipped.
rottenKiwY
3.50 is about right
NobodyknowthetroubleIsee
I would not call this 3-gun. Do what he do with the rifle when he change to the pistol during a match and you'll be out of the game.
bigbrothersbinary
I think it can depend on the range. I've been to places where they window off the stage and you have your own little canyon of flying lead.
aninjasbeer
Yeah, not precisely 3-gun, but to train for this and 3-gun are very similar. I assume they modified the "course" to mimic scene storyboards.
NobodyknowthetroubleIsee
Exactly, he was training for the movie at this time.
aninjasbeer
I guess what I'm saying is, if someone wants to try something like this without spending a shit-ton, go out for 3-gun.
Whitetiger7654
I think everyone understood. Someone is just playing semantics with you. Captain buzz kill.
SirSmidget
But why
Nalianna
why male models? serious? i just told you a moment ago.
BoomGottcha
I assume because the barrel of the gun gets pointed in potentially dangerous directions as he is swinging it around
steviesterno
I've shot matches where you holster hot and move down range. And some where you sling loaded rifles. Not a huge fan but meh
SharkoutofWata
Exactly correct. You never break 170 degrees or it's a major safety violation and match DQ.
