Because these guys are known for their airsoft / VFX wizardry, people wonder; can they actually shoot well with real guns?
The answer is yes… they all do very well at that distance. That range looks extremely short. I’m not the best at estimating distances in video, but the targets look like they are around 5 yards away. Even at that distance though, not too shabby.
Thoughts?

I think that is about 15 yards. They’ve zoomed in the camera so it’s a tad deceptive. I would prefer to see their accuracy during some double tap and rapid fire drills. Long aimed shots are very easy to do at that range.
Good shooting, good safety and handling.
Also to be totally racist (in a good way) I’ve taken a bunch of Asian co-workers to the range, dunno if its a cultural thing (tho most of them are US Born and look and sound more like Freddy and the lady in the video than say Jet Lee) but they are always scary good shots right out of the box. I’ve told many of the male friends “You shoot like a woman…..and I mean that in the best way!”
Women seem to shoot scary good out of the box. They get the concept of trigger control better than men who seem to as a whole want to dive right into rapid fire.
Broad brush, but we’re all friends here! :)
One of my pal’s Japanese wife turned out to be a crack shot when we rented a Beretta 92 at a range. Her grouping was quite tighter than either my friend or I who had years of shooting exp. Like you said, she had a very good grasp of trigger control.
Yea I know what you mean. I’ve got my girlfriends 1st target up in my office. All in the black at 50 yards with my eotech, I was very impressed.
-Screaming on the range
-Not breaking / clearing weapon when placing it on the mat (no one ever dose)
-Over shooting on a target
-etc…
Not cool man, not cool! But all fun and games, and nothing serious.
They were a little eccentric… but better than I would have guessed/expected.
I would pack my things and leave if people kept screaming like that.
Watch some of Freddies videos. I haven’t watched this one yet but I will. I think he’s really funny on alot of them but some I’m just a little to old to see the humor in. His video editing is top notch.
Ok, watched it. The yell was a little much but I also like that they took the time to get instruction before shooting. Not alot of young gun “experts” will do that. Alot of these kids think airsoft and other toys translate directly to real steel. Overall, good on you guys.
I expected more from a group of video assassins like Freddies crew. Their grip and stances were all F’ed up but they were having fun and that’s the main thing.
