WATCH: Actor Keanu Reeves Shreds Targets Shooting 3-Gun
« on: March 19, 2016, 04:06:31 pm »
A video of actor Keanu Reeves (Matrix, John Wick) has emerged that shows Reeves shifting between three guns — an AR-15, a shotgun, and a handgun — to literally shred targets downrange.

The shooting configuration — commonly called 3-gun — requires a considerable degree of shooting skill and practice in order to be done with efficiency and accuracy. Moreover, it involves the pressure of being timed while transitioning between the three weapons, shooting targets throughout.

The video was posted by Taran Tactical Innovations:

According to Conservative Outfitters, Reeves is reportedly honing as 3-gun skills as part of his training “for the sequel to the movie John Wick.”

The NRA’s America’s 1st Freedom reports that 3-gun is, in fact, “the fastest growing shooting sport in the nation.” Moreover, it is not a sport popular with men only, but is increasingly popular with women and youth as well. The 3-Gun Nationals include competitions for women and youth, along with “a female only prize.”

I used to shoot at all sorts of targets,but these days about all I shoot is running snakes with a handgun. I used to scatter golf balls around the yard and then spin around and snap shoot at them until I emptied my 1911A1 magazine. Which is something you should never do if you have a fragile ego when it comes to your shooting ability because they are all at different distances.

I've always found bulls eye shooting to be about as exciting as watching paint dry,and pop up man sized targets not much more exciting with centerfire rifles.

Never done it,but I'm sure I'd love the hell out of skeet and trap shooting.
Anyone who isn't paranoid in 2021 just isn't thinking clearly!

More than likely. The cartilage and synovial capsules in your elbows start to wear thin after 50.  :shrug:

Just another joy of expanding years.

Absolutly. The family that shoots together, stays together. And also can lay down a pretty impressive crossfire.



Me:   M&P Shield 9mm, M&P Pro 9mm, M&P 15T (AR-15), XDs 9mm, XDm .45' and Ruger LCP .380.
Wife:  Glock 43. 9mm
Our 14 year-old son:   Ruger 10-22

Almost every day.
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

Has anybody ever counted his number of "kills" in John Wick?

He has two scenes...one at his house and one at the Russian Club, where you lose count...they drop so fast.

House

Club

Maybe because he actually shoots these types of weapons, makes his action scenes seem so natural.  He's believable!

"It aint what you don't know that kills you.  It's what you know that aint so!" ...Theodore Sturgeon
