Have you guys watched the movie "equilibrium" starry Christian Bale, where they use a form of martial arts called GUN KATA? I was wondering, does it really exist? Maybe practiced by some secret society or something? If it does exist, this world would be a really dangerous place to live. Bale shot down about 25 men around him with two 9 mm pistols using GUN KATA..amazing

the important thing to remember is that this was in a film and therefore most likely isnt accurate. Im sure thee are methods taught to the secret service etc.. that involve ways to use a gun that could be called "Gun katas" Im not sure what the word "kata" means in japanese or chinese but i know that in many martial arts its a series of moves including attacks and defences that are done in a specific order so perhaps if the SS do learn these katas it would be based on a series of movements intended to block enemy knife attacks etc.. while getting the gun into an appropriate position to be able to fire shots at fatal areas of the attack as in a fist fight even if you have a gun you still need to get it in the right position to hit the intended target

ha! i loved that movie! well, gun kata is supposed to put a person in a special position using statistics and probability, the moves put the user in a position where they are least likely to get hit by enemy fire and to allow them a lot more room for fire. If practiced properly by an experienced person, theoretically they could take down entire armies with just two 90mm heckler & Koch pistols (with infinite ammunition of course) because no bullet would hit them, and basically all the bullets fired would hit the enemy.
I doubt that this is real, because there is no 'most likely hit position' everyone fires their gun differently, and also doing this would require inhumanly fast reflexes, and one wrong move could split a tendon, dislocate a shoulder etc.

I totally agree. The movie was good if you keep in mind that such type of martial arts don't exist. Say, like, the matrix, where everything was based on fantasy. If you keep on comparing these types of movies with real life, it's just not fun to watch. Talking about the Matrix, don't you think the makers of Equilibrium stole a bit form that movie?

Yes that gun kata was really good...And i don't know that the gun kata exits or not but polter you are righ tthat if it exists somewhere in the world then the world would be a dangerous place to live in.I don't want that gun to exist because i don't want the terrorists to use these guns......Its existence could cause more deaths during terrorists attacks then it is caused now...
