Severe allergies to foregrips?

[gunguy001]

Just finished "Red", look for the belt feed machine gun and guess what it is.
Finished RE4 afterlife in 3D end of last year, working on a few more right now.

Actors are like everybody else, they put pants on the same way we do.

Just so everyone knows, Al has worked on "Flashpoint" (since that's one of the examples of "foregrip allergy" that has been cited in this topic). His IMDB credits are here:

IMDB says you got to work on something w/ Spielberg, too. How did that go?

I'm just so envious that you got to work on "Boondock Saints II" (dunno if you're a fan of the first one or not).

Think you can tell us some of the guns you got for Resident Evil Afterlife?

I still can't believe they are continuously making these bad RE movies.

I'm wondering, how did you get the jennings to cycle in boondock saints 2? Those guns choke on real ammo let alone blanks.

That's what that gun was? It was starting to bother me since I can't ID it

I would just politely tell the actors to hold the foregrip when you run because it'll feel better or just remove the foregrips all together

Would it bother people to say that i have seen several images out of Iraq and Afganistan of US soldiers using the VFG of their rifle as a handstop and not a grip. Really people you are makeing a big deal out of nothing and I'll admit that I am a diagnosed Aspie.

With what time? It's literally seconds between you telling them and them doing 'the takes'. Are you going yell 'CUT", to run into the shot and stop the filming and remove the foregrips because the actor didn't grab them the first time? Guys, get real. It takes TIME to remove grips, also you have to store the grips, plus the gun was checked out of inventory with the grips ON, so you have to monitor that the grips were removed and where they were stored. Unless the director stops the shot himself and ASKS for the grips to be removed, no one will do it. It's a pain in the ass.
