Paintball Guns in Movies

[DasBaldDog]

Many months ago, I worked at the local movie theater. Well one night I stayed to preview the movie "Hollowman" to make sure the film was put together right and to watch it 12 hours before anyone else in America could. Anyways, I noticed something strange. The "Tranq Guns" they were using were PGP Pump Pistols. Seriously. Go watch that movie. You don't get the best of views of it, but it's pretty darn easy to tell. Also I JUST came back from Scary Movie 2 and they use PGP Pisols in there too, but this time they are electro pistols. lol.

they prob dont want to use realistic looking ones

I think they just don't want the guns recognizable as normal guns so they get ones that still look like weapons but slightly strange......aka...paintball guns.

yes guys, he is right. i noticed that a couple of months ago. None of my friends believed me, but they were pgp's. If that wasnt bad enough, didnt they shoot semi automatic?

[DasBaldDog]

Yeah, they do. Even in Scary Movie 2 they shoot semi. Anyone noticed any other paintball gun use in movies besides SM2 and Hollowman? (Hollowman sucked, by the way. A very unoriginal and sad movie)
