Line 85:
*** Which doesn't make much sense unless the Wraith use special materials in their locks, as the 5.7x28mm round used in the P90 is specially designed to defeat high-quality armor.
** An earlier SG-1 episode manages to avert this, when an NID agent uses a machine pistol on full auto to shoot ''around'' a lock, completely separating it from the rest of the door (and he actually reloads afterward, for bonus verisimilitude).
* Both subverted and used (almost) correctly in the ''[[Firefly (TV series)|Firefly]]'' episode "Ariel." Jayne attempts to shoot out a lock with a futuristic stun gun, resulting in total indifference on the part of the door (stun rifles aren't really designed to blow out locks anyway). However, {{spoiler|Mal's shotgun does a much better job at shooting out the lcok, doing substantial damage to the door itself}}.
* In the ''[[Chuck]]'' episode "Chuck Versus the Marlin," Casey shoots open the lock to free Sarah who had been locked in a freezer by an enemy spy.
* Kate successfully shoots a padlock in the ''[[Lost]]'' episode "Eggtown."
