They had to spell it out so that the dog wouldn't understand and get all excited.
In loads of movies we see assassins assembling riffles on rooftops etc.
My question is, are these weapons less accurate than a "one piece" riffle
or is there little to no difference ?
I understand concealment is the objective, just wondering if there was
any drop in accuracy ?

Most if not all rifles break down into component parts. The trick is not to knock the scope or sights which should have been zeroed in previously.
There's not really such a thing as a one piece gun tp, even the military m24 sniper rifle can be field stripped, a lot of the sniper rifles used in films and put in case to conceal them are semi stripped with barrel detached etc. As for accuracy, that depends on the gun, the maintainance of the gun, ammo and of course the marksman.
And what ^ he said, interesting fact for you because I know you like them, some early scopes had Crosshairs made from spiders Web, they used it as it was less likely to break due to recoil or being knocked about. They used Web from a particular spider abundant on the north Yorkshire moors.
Thanks Chris, you see it so often in movies. I Wondered if it was a compromise of
Concealment v Accuracy. Very interesting about the spider web. -{

"I've been informed that there ARE a couple of QAnon supporters who are fairly regular posters in AJB."
I didn't know that either! I'm sure sir miles is right, he usually is, I suppose when you've been around as long as he has you pick up a lot of info. I used to quite like the Michael pain nosey neighbour in the fast show, now not a lot of people know that. ;
It would be hoped that a decent assassin would use the best weapon for the job and strip it down accordingly.
I was assuming an assassin's rifle would have to be custom made to
Break down, to a convenient " brief case" size
Another show "Stella Street" was an Impressions show, a street full of celebs.
Like Sir Michael, and Sir Roger. I remember one episode when the local cleaning

Quite right.
In the movies you do however see the assassin assembling the rifle "click" the scope in place as the last piece, now there are some pretty spectacular quick-fix mounts nowadays, but you are still going to lose your perfect zero if you remove and then fix back your scope.
Another thing that the movie rifles quite often have is the screw in barrel, and I am talking about the kind where the barrel is either in two pieces or that the barrel screws in to the chamber when assembled. This is also going to screw up ('scuse the pun) your zero. With a quick detach barrel, the barrel and chamber should be single solid piece to maintain internal ballistic accuracy.

New toy, 7.62 Enfield , converted to a competition standard target rifle by Fultons of Bisley and has Parker Hale PH-5C sights, this gives me two Enfields the other being an AJ Parker cconversion.
ive just watched a WW2 movie ,and all the German soldiers who have the ERMA MP40 sub-machine gun (ie the classic Nazi machine gun) and they are all firing the weapon whilst holding the magazine ?? now im sure I read somewhere ,that if you did this the magazine would not sit square in the body and thus cause a jam ,but you see it all the time in all the films ,who Is right
In many cases with a lot of different external magazine-fed firearms, there is enough tolerance to allow the holding of the mag while firing the weapon with no malfunctions. It is still not recommended but users do it.
I do not have any information on either the MP-38 or MP-40 so I don't know what the factory recommended.
During range practice I have rested the bottom of the magazine of both my StG.58 and AR15's on my off hand while standing with no ill effect. I would not probably do this in a defensive situation holding the handguard instead.
Can anyone identify the gun this brave Nigerian terrorist tracker is holding?
To me this one looks like a shotgun. It seems like it's has cylinder like a revolver, but at the same time it looks like a magazine in front of the cylinder. That makes no sense??????

Please explain
It certainly does look like a revolving cylinder, and given the shells she has in the ammo belt I'd assume it is a cartridge gun, I dont think that is a magazine?? where's the ejection port? And given the bore of barrel if guess she fires solid slugs... So this maybe a modified big game rifle. That's my guess anyway.

maybe they were experimenting with partially sighted bomb disposal people ?

I thought this was interesting, 5 gun myths from the movies.
The Curve, a cute little gun.
