Gun shot sound effect without computers
Hey I was wondering how I could get the realistic sound of me firing a gun on film. Due to my equipment (or lack there of) I cannot dub it in later or use a program to put it in. It would need to be as I "shot" the gun. What technique for aquiring the sound do you suggest?:(

YAY! An Old School answer opportunity!
If you use an improvised cap gun, that'll usually do the job for giving a gun sound - Use the ring caps, as the paper strip ones aren't very good.
Right, that's the gun sound bit answered.
Want to go a bit more high-tech, wire the gun up to a switch, you can then remotely detonate something like a fire-cracker that'll give that loud gun bang sound!
Using a blank-firing gun would be the best bet, but not everyone has access to those, and they are not cheap!
Oh, one other thing - Your avatar points to a file on your own hard-drive. You need to have a file uploaded onto the Internet for the picture to show, because all we can see is a while box with a red X in it!

thank you very much. the smacking of the planks of wood might actually work pretty well.
now that's what i call low-budget filmmaking.
HELL YEAH!
