Something was bugging me about King Kong. Just a minor thing - the gun handling. There is a part where Bruce Baxter is handling a Thompson sub-machine gun and he has his trigger finger straight along frame of the gun. The straight finger is a recent (well fairly recent) addition to gun handling. In the 1930's the finger was on the trigger all the time.
This reminds me of Eric Bana's character in Black Hawk Down. Hoot believed his index finger was his weapons safety. My kind of guy.
One of my relatives is old-school when it comes to guns. No matter what I hand him his trigger finger goes right to the trigger. Scary when it's a Glock...
