We need guns. Lots of guns.

That's right, it’s time to see how deep the rabbit hole goes, as Dave and Jonathan take a look at the guns of The Matrix, including Neo’s dual MP5Ks, Agent Smith’s iconic Desert Eagle and one of the best Mingun scenes in cinematic history.

Don't forget, as an Extended Episode patron you get an extra long episode with a bunch of extra content, a week earlier than the main feed, and it's ad-free.

In this episode of Expert Reacts on EXP, Jonathan Ferguson--an expert in firearms history and the Keeper of Firearms & Artillery at the Royal Armouries Museum in the UK--breaks down the guns from The Matrix, and compares them to their real-life counterparts with artefacts from the Royal Armouries archive.

The shotguns (from what I can recall) were 12 gauge automatic shotguns, with 24 shell cylinders custom made by the movies armourer John Bowring, nicknamed Andy and Larry after the filmmakers

Quick side note - one of my friends worked as an airsoft "armourer" on Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare.
