Depends on the gun, whether you do it forcefully or not. If I pull and release my sks bolt, then it's loud, if I do it under control then no.
My lever action can be done almost silently.
In short, tv gets almost anything to do with guns wrong.

You can abuse it though. Too much emphasis on soundwork makes it seem like you're trying to compensate for a lack of legitimate tension.

Completely on purpose, and I suspect DRAMA has less than nothing to do with it. TV is nothing but schizophrenic hoplophobes and right-wing agendas
which is why I don't watch the shit.

I quit watching TV because it's boring.

Well yeah, that too. Plus I don't have to sit through endless pledge drives, soap operas, all-men-are-rapist shows (aka Lifetime), and commercials just to get to my sweet science documentaries and hot starship-on-lazor pew-pew action I'm so addicted to

Now Elmer Keith...there was a shootist. Without him, we would never have had Dirty Harry's S&W .44 Magnum.

You saw the lulz storm about that women vs tropes kickstarter too? I pissed in some of those misogynist youtube commenters' cheerios in retaliation after The Escapist named and shamed them. Turns out those commenters are all homophobic racists to a man as well.
I for one will cheer if they get D0x3d like they deserve. :troll:
Can I get some context plz?
