Vic Mackey being a BAMF

Vic Mackey walking into the lion's den...

[@SugarRayCharles.]

"Either you & I are gonna leave this basement together, or we're gonna leave this life together." -Vic Mackey. The most badass tv-scene there is.

dude i would love to see Vic Mackey vs Tuco. Vic would eat Tuco for breakfast

[@cishansen4162]

One of my favourite scenes. Always loved when he says 'I got one in the chamber dickhead, your homies were too stoned to realise.' absolute badass.

The Shield was probably the best tv show in history

[@ExcessCongruence]

nah, not by a longshot..and that's ok! the more shows we get contending for the title, the better we'll be!

[@thomasdemay9805]

@@ExcessCongruence nah it's definitely in contention. Right there with Wire, Breaking Bad and Sopranos. So many just underrate this show but in reality it's right there with the top shows.

[@sirbuffalo]

@@thomasdemay9805 Absolutely. It was raw, intense and realistic. No show had me at the edge of my seat during every episode, not even the Wire or Breaking Bad. I guess some people just have different tastes.

[@TheFailedmessiah]

It was very realistic that today’s shows aren’t willing to show these days due to political correctness bullshit.

[@sirbuffalo]

@@TheFailedmessiah I know. It's nothing but censorship based on emotions. I'd be embarrassed to even admit that a bloody TV show hurts my feelings. There's nothing more pathetic and weak, than getting offended by insignificant things. They're all so desperate to be victims, but they wouldn't last a day as an actual victim of anything. It's all fair and well, if they want to act like idiots, but why ruin everything for the rest of us? Pathetic attention seekers. As you can tell, I find these SJWs extremely obnoxious. Mostly because they are very responsible for the degradation of society today.

Lucas Hood is probably the closest we've gotten since

[@charlierunkle19]

Hood was such a good character. Banshee was beyond great​@@gin.gefilms

[@gin.gefilms]

@@charlierunkle19 Vic Mackey, Lucas Hood, Raylan Givens my 3 favorite TV action stars

[@charlierunkle19]

@@gin.gefilms hell yeah man I was thinking about Raylan as well, but agreed that Hood is closer to Mackey. If you liked Banshee check out Strike Back seasons 2-5, Scott and Stonebridge are great characters and it has some great shooting action. The hand to hand sucks though, thankfully there's not too much of it. The first season was a British production exclusively and was a much different show.

[@gin.gefilms]

@@charlierunkle19 I've never heard of it! Thank you for the recommendation I'm definitely gonna check it out

[@Ship-security]

Fun fact, the Smith and Wesson third generation of semi automatic pistols, has a magazine disconnect. This means that when there is a magazine, not inserted into the gun the trigger mechanism is disengaged and the weapon will not fire. 😂

[@kcamroccamian]

Haha first thing I thought too. I just told myself that Vic knew enough to deactivate that, or he just does a good bluff.

[@RichiesHouse]

This is true but many police agencies had this option removed by their armorer or right from the factory . It’s an option that can be removed .

[@osiris8637]

Not that I’m disputing this, I’m no expert on firearms, especially mechanisms but does that also work dependent on the weapons condition. Slide already racked with one in the chamber- with no magazine would the trigger still operate or not?

[@brandonbullock9436]

​@osiris8637 Yes, some guns are made so that even with a round chambered the gun will not fire. Theory being if someone is trying to take your gun from you, dump the mag and it won't fire

[@BigBWolf90]

​@kcamroccamian I'd say it's on the bluff side. Not to say criminals can't be smart but Vick probably assumed that the crew didn't know much about firearms so they wouldn't know he was bluffing

[@rajendranadarajan8931]

I'm offering you an olive branch. You want shock and awe, we can arrange that too 💪 I'm gonna start using that in real life 🤣

[@goodbyeseeyalater]

Vic could've drew his backup revolver. The revolver we never seen him fire.

[@napalmstickylikeglue]

Think he quit carrying it after IAD screwed up the sting with the Russians. Don't believe I've ever saw him have it after that.

[@goodbyeseeyalater]

@@napalmstickylikeglue Smith and Wesson model 640 .38 pre lock model. To be honest,I would probably carry a Walther PPK .380 or a Glock 26 as my backup gun

[@napalmstickylikeglue]

@@goodbyeseeyalater yeah, G26 for me, as I carry a G17. Simply because I can use my back up mag in my 26 if I have a catastrophic failure in my 17.

[@MichaelChiklisCares]

Yeah Shield remains my all time favorite, I had more issues with Breaking Bad sideplots.

[@andrewlockett4569]

The Shield did have a little bit of episodic " fat " that could have been cut without impinging on the shows arc, but BB had a few whole episodes that really didn't add anything to the series narrative.

[@VivaLaDnDLogs]

I think you're missing the point of the character. He is extremism. Ends justify means. Someone does this shit on you, your life goes straight to shit and you don't get a way out. And he laughs while he does it.
