You know I wish I could make this a straight up knife fight. There is a reason I prefer baldes anf hand to hand to guns. Guns are complicated and messy. Anyway I have a challenge for you Elessar... Name all of the guns used in the Matrix Trilogy... I bet you that you can't so it!

do I get to watch them again? I remember at least M16's (guards in the building), uzi's (Neo and Trinity in the building), a Benelli Supernova 12guage tactical shotgun (guard in the building), H&K Tactical USPs (Neo and Trinity), a Desert Eagle .50AE (the agent who went after Trinity out the window), an automatic Glock 18 (Neo in the lobby), H&K MP5's (guards in the building), I think Sig P229's are what the agents had when they shot Neo, pretty sure I saw an H&K UMP45 in the gun racks, and Mouse died shooting a DAO-12 40mm grenade launcher

If I got to watch it again I guarantee I could name em all, lol

The TT was developed in the 1920s and didn't exist yet.

Ah you're right, that's not the one I meant, maybe I was thinking of the Colt 1903 that looks like the TT-33?

If you want hand to hand combat a neat trick to use is one used by robbers in the USSR to steal peoples money. You take a large nut or a steel ball that you can attach a string to(the other end goes around a finger). You throw it from inside your palm from concealed position between the other persons eyes with force. It will hurt and it will distract the other person sufficiently enough to either punch their lights out or stab them.

I watch Matrix anytime it's on TV. Which is pretty often believe it or not. I played the video games, and since I couldn't shoot worth a darn I used Kung Fu and blades. Always wished I could have played as Trin who doesn't want to levitate?

No I have to use guns in the Novel, I'm trying to be semi historically accurate.

Still I prefer blades, and hand to hand. Maybe it's the Jedi in me, maybe I just like sharp objects. Maybe I'm too enamored of Klingon blades I honestly have no clue... No I do I just think it's a more intense skill set.
