Watching an old rerun of NCIS...

...while doing some paperwork, and there is a scene where the good guys are being chased by a bad guy in a helicopter...

Main good guy is told to "go get the Henry, but it pulls to the right!"

Good guy gallops off, picks up the Henry, which turns out to be a 1873 Carbine with a Creedmoor rear tang sight, (and of course, the good guy takes out the helicopter pilot, in flight, while standing rock steady, upright, out in the open while automatic gunfire comes stitching towards him, and saves the day!)... Heck of a Henry. ^_^

Gotta Love them Magic Guns.

I like how he stands there adjusting the elevation on the sight and manages to dial it in perfectly for a hit on an uphill moving target.

 

But,heck, he was a Marine Sniper, so he can do anything.

This should surprise no one. :lol:

Ya gotta remember that the good guy was a Marine sniper. That makes the whole scene believeable.
