    The way I was taught to shoot through windows, was to stand well back in the room, so that the muzzle blast won't give me away. The field of fire was to be taken in the consideration in positioning one self, so if needed, I would stand on something to get the right angle to engage the target. Also: if time permits, opening (smashing) all of the windows adjacent to the one I'm shooting through also makes it more difficult to pinpoint my location. I admit that it was in the perspective of rifle caliber weapons, so not much thought was spent about the ballistics side of things and more was spent thinking about staying in cover.

    If you really think about it; this whole shooting through the windows thing in movies is still done in the same way it was done in the first black and white cowboy movies...

    Another old chestnut.
    If you stick your finger in the barrel of a gun as it's fired, will it will blow up ?
    True or old wives tale ? ;)

    Like I said I'm no expert. I did mention about angles but was guessing.

    Don't worry, stag.

    Asp9mm and me are the resident gun experts, so if you have any related questions, ask me first and Asp9mm for a second opinion :D


    The only thing you are expert in, is idiocy. And I have to give it to you, you excel. You are a superb idiot.

    Link to an article on a stabilization device for rifles: http://bearingarms.com/came-bolt-actions/

    I know it's a little political, but it describes the device well.

    Shooting through things such as glass,,,,try not to. About 10 years a thug in Memphis got excited when he saw a rival gang member and fired his .380 caliber pistol without rolling down the car window, the bullet ricocheted off the heavy glass and hit him in the head, knocking him cold.

    Plate glass is not as tough as tempered or safety glass, but it can still deflect a bullet's path, however slight.

    I hate that sausage suckin mutha. He's a goober, and a sad man with an egg fetish. And he has feet like Sideshow Bob which makes his choice of footwear even more hilarious.
