* MurphysBullet: Two drug gangs squabble over territory. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W92U5hopg2o At first it seems laughable]], like the gang version of a WimpFight, as the two sides obviously have little to no experience with guns, and most don't even come close to hitting each other due to the fact that they're often firing without properly aiming or even looking at their target. [[MoodWhiplash The mood changes quickly]] when a mother in a nearby building finds her nine-year-old son dead in his room from a stray bullet.

not really artistic licence gun use, it is a very realistic portrayal of untrained hotheads shooting in a street altercation and fits much better under A Team Firing.


* ArtisticLicenseGunSafety: A street-corner shootout breaks out between Bodie's crew and a rival gang, with about five or so shooters on each side. Dozens of rounds are fired, none of them aimed carefully, almost all while on the run, and many are simply wild blind fire. It comes off as the precise opposite of the glamorous action gunfight. Both sides scatter as soon as sirens are heard, with the only casualties being some car windows and a young boy in a nearby building.
