Noisy Guns | comment |
In real life, guns are carefully designed, well-constructed tools that — provided they are well maintained — can last a lifetime. Or somebody's lifetime, anyway. On TV, they're apparently filled with rusty nails and loose change, and held together with masking tape. As a result, whenever someone hefts a weapon — particularly if it's a machine gun or submachine gun — it will make a whole load of clicking, clacking and clonking even though all they're doing is rotating it through 90 degrees. This trope is partly the result of the fact that a noisy gun adds drama to the scene (see Dramatic Gun Cock and *Click* Hello), and partly because without all those familiar clicks, the audience would probably mistake even a real firearm for a rubber prop. Media also routinely depicts guns being dry fired more than once when they run out of ammo. The "Click Click Click" sound lets the audience know it's empty. Unfortunately, not all guns in the real world can do this. Pump-action shotguns, single fire rifles, bolt-action rifles, lever-action carbines, and even single-action pistols and revolvers — none of these will repeatedly dry fire without a re-cock. Double-action pistols and revolvers will fire on every trigger pull, of course. The name refers to the "double action" of the trigger — every pull both cocks the hammer (advancing the cylinder in the process) and then releases it to fire the weapon. You can dry fire a double action weapon all day without ever touching the hammer. Of course, you still can't get the empty click-click-click from a double-action semi-automatic just by continuing to pull the trigger, since on the vast majority of designs (and on a great many semi-auto and full-auto rifles as well, but this trope is far more common with pistols anyway) the slide will lock back on an empty magazine — but that's neither here nor there, and TV gets around this by simply never having the slide lock back. This trope probably originated from the time when double-action revolvers were the most popular handguns in the United States, and a great many movie directors are either unaware or don't care that other more modern guns don't work the same way. Electrically powered firearms, like gatling-style cannons used on aircraft, will dry fire as long as you hold down the trigger. A sub-trope of the The Coconut Effect. May or may not be a side effect of Reliably Unreliable Guns. Related to Bang, Bang, BANG, where the sound of guns firing is exaggerated so as to make them distinct. Do not confuse with More Dakka, which is where a high volume of fire is applied where it might not be necessary (but probably will be cool). Subtrope of Kinetic Clicking. If you're thinking of intentionally making a noise to announce an entrance or punctuate a phrase, see Dramatic Gun Cock, and please don't add examples of it here. For the Sword Counterpart of this, see Audible Sharpness. Finally, note that guns in real life are very, very noisy when fired, so much so that hearing protection needs to be worn — this trope is about the noises a gun makes when it isn't being fired. |

In Monster Hunter almost every weapon falls into this category or, less frequently, Audible Sharpness (Most weapons are too big to have a sheath). In particular, in Monster Hunter 3 (Tri) the Bowgun, Switch Axe, and Lance make lots of noise when drawn and are justified due to being folded or otherwise mechanized for portability. | |

Inverted in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly when Tuco is displeased with the loud clicks that a revolver makes as its cylinder is turned, indicating its poor quality. He dismantles several pistols to construct his own from the parts and then demonstrates to the clerk that the new gun clicks very softly when its cylinder is rotated. | |

Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. Every time Raiden lifts his pistol, it sounds like he's cocked it. Similar to both this and the Unreal Tournament example above, if you ever play a game of Metal Gear Online, turn the background music off and you can hear everything from the realistic sound of your opponents footsteps and equipment rustling to the unfortunately unrealistic click of his gun being brought to an 'aimed' position. |

The Matrix has a guard draw a Glock, a polymer-framed striker-fired pistol, which immediately produces a chorus of clicks. Being striker-fired, Glock pistols only make that much noise when you move the slide back to chamber a round, a big motion best done with your other hand. He'd have to do that if he wanted to fire it, but you can't do that just by drawing the gun. | |

Lyrical Nanoha uses this trope on magitek weapons, but once the Belkan-Cartridge system comes into play, suddenly *Ka-chunk* or a series of clicks/steam expulsion systems get upgraded... the Anime pretty much codifies this trope among the magical girl genre. | |

The various guns available in the Dark Forces Saga all have very pronounced arming sounds when being brought up into view. This includes the numerous blasters and other energy weapons available, all of which make sounds suspiciously similar to a revolver being cocked or a charging lever being drawn back. It's possible these are due to the guns being taken off safe as they're brought up into line, but if that's the case, some of these guns must have had some of the most ludicrous safeties known to fiction to produce the variety of the sounds heard in the games. | |

Parodied in Hot Fuzz, when Nick and his mates charge the grocery store with a makeshift battering ram consisting of a large number of trolleys. The scene is accompanied by overly loud gun clacking despite the fact that none of the present characters have their guns out. As the whole movie is an Affectionate Parody of action movies, it's obviously intentional. | |

Common in Human Target, for example, about 15 minutes into "Salvage and Reclamation", when essentially everyone in Maria's bar pulls a gun on Chance, with a range of guns all the way from what appears to be an old Colt revolver to an AK represented. Seems to verge into that particular homage/lampshading/Affectionate Parody realm the show is known for when they sort of re-emphasized the brandishing of their guns a few moments later and the exact same sounds are heard. | |

Many of the human weapons in the early Halo games fit this trope. Every time a weapon is drawn, Master Chief will either: rack the slide on a pistol, pump a shotgun, or clear the bolt-action on a sniper rifle, despite that most of them are fully loaded at the time and doing so would waste a cartridge. The poor bastard will sometimes (depending on the game) do these actions upon drawing an empty weapon. In particular, Halo: Combat Evolved's assault rifle has the loudest safety ever. By later games, this was remedied, so that when the player character picks up a weapon for the first time, they will (for example) rack the slide on the pistol, but every time they switch weapons after that the player merely clicks the safety off with their thumb. | |

This accompanies almost every episode of Lost. Pistols make mechanical clinking noises whenever they're waved around and a cocking noise whenever pointed at someone. Most annoyingly, shotgun cocking sounds routinely accompany the raising of any bolt action rifle (it's essentially a 'this weapon gesture is threatening!' code for the viewer). Anyone who's ever used a bolt action rifle will find this infuriating. | |

Team Fortress 2 also has every gun (And some non-guns, such as the Spy's knife) make distinct noises when you switch weapons. The noisy knife actually makes sense, since it's a butterfly knife. The guns...not so much. It's worth noting that (excluding miniguns) the guns themselves have practically no rattle. Most of the noise from weapon switching and inspecting is from a class's clothing. |

Doctor Who: Not so much a weapon as a tool (even though many of its uses could be weaponised and it has been used as one), but the Doctor's super-advanced alien tech sonic screwdriver frequently rattles like an old butterfly corkscrew. This only ever seems to happen when the screwdriver is on-screen. Of course, the sounds the sonic makes when being moved are dubbed by duplicating the motions the actor makes... with an old butterfly corkscrew. No kidding. In "The End of Time", every time the Doctor switches between aiming at the Master and aiming at Rassilon, he seems to recock the gun. The Doctor Who universe is one where simply pointing a gun at a person cocks it, sometimes multiple times. |

Averted in City Hunter. Ryo knows when his weapon is empty or not and will not try to use it when it's empty. He religiously takes care of his weapon at home, oils the rusty parts or changes them to prevent this kind of thing.
