Frequently Asked Questions

Why is the Ant-Man Glock scene in the MCU impossible?

Brandon Herrera explains that Glocks are striker-fired pistols and do not have external hammers. Therefore, ants blocking a hammer, as depicted in the scene, is physically impossible for this type of firearm.

Are AR-15s correctly identified in Captain America: Civil War?

No, Brandon Herrera points out that firearms in Civil War were misidentified. Rifles shown and referred to as AR-15s were actually different platforms, including Galils and SIG models.

Can Tony Stark's glasses stop a 9mm bullet in real life?

According to Brandon Herrera, it's highly unlikely. Real-world glasses would not stop a 9mm round, and even if they did, the kinetic energy transfer and potential for spalling would pose significant risks.

What caliber firearms are discussed regarding the Hulk's durability?

The discussion covers 20mm to 30mm aircraft cannons. Brandon Herrera questions their effectiveness against the Hulk, suggesting they would likely cause more damage than depicted in the movie.
