    Is that gun mounted on the plane or fully hand held?? I assume mounted, just seems unusual the way he’s holding the barrel. I thought the gun would just be held by the stock / grips at the back, and pivoted around at the place it’s mounted.

    This perspective is so confusing man 😂

    I would love some actual info on how this gun works / how it’s mounted etc …

    This footage is incredible. Our kids will at first glance believe it’s from WW2 and then they will see it’s a drone he’s shooting at.

    Literally like those early WW1 pilots shooting pistols at each other.

    Good shooting though!

  5. This reminds me of early air combat of ww1 pilots just using hand guns to pop shots at each other. Hays off that was some impressive shooting

    Knowing my luck with traumas, I probably would accidentally slip my fingertip over the barrell exit… 😀
    So damn close.
