Line 52:
* Kaito Wanijima from ''[[Air Gear]]'' has a gun as his weapon of choice. He uses it a LOT.
* Hibari Ginza from ''[[Speed Grapher]]'' seems to have a permanently itchy trigger finger. When she's not shooting someone([[Catch Phrase|Self Defense!]]) she threatening to shoot someone. Even if that someone is ''a fellow cop.''
* Ladd Russo from ''[[Baccano!]]'', who gets excited at the sound of gunfire. Mind you, he also likes [[Knife Nut|knives]], [[Good Old Fisticuffs]], [[Improvised Weapon|tire irons, lead pipes, knuckledusters,]] [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|rubber chickens with a pulley in the middle]], or just about ''anything'' [[Ax Crazy|that helps in killing people]], but he seems to have a special fondness for guns.
* Officer Volvo Saigo in ''[[Kochikame]]'' is very trigger happy with his weapons at the slightest disturbance around him causing threat to Ryotsu and the others.

Line 65:
* Eugene Tackleberry from ''[[Police Academy]]''.
* Baby Face Nelson in ''[[Public Enemies]]''. [[Truth in Television]], because in real life, Baby Face used to work for Al Capone, but was [[Even Evil Has Standards|kicked out for his itchy trigger finger]] and even John Dillinger was nervous about having him around. Paradoxically, he was a [[Pet the Dog|devoted husband and father who often had his wife and children with him while he was on the run.]]
** In ''[[O Brother, Where Art Thou?]]'' Nelson is portrayed as manic-depressive, and he's very trigger-happy when he's feeling good.
{{quote|'''Nelson:''' * while hanging out the door of a moving vehicle* Han' me dat choppah!
'''Delmar:''' Say, what line o' work ya in, George?
Line 85:
* Aeryn Sun on ''[[Farscape]]'' spends a lot of time shooting people with evident pleasure. [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|Even while giving birth.]]
* ''[[Chuck]]'': John Casey loves guns.
* In what might be the only nonlethal variation, Parker on [[Leverage]] is trigger happy with various [[Stun Guns]] and tasers.
* ''[[Flashpoint]]'': A wanna-be SRU member doesn't pass the exam when he's a little to eager to shoot a perp, or possibly a guy who happens to be in the wrong place in the wrong time.
* ''[[Deadliest Catch]]'': The Hillstrands mark special occasions with automatic rifle fire (plus fireworks and flare guns).
Line 113:
* In ''[[Dead Rising]]'', Cletus Samson and both Roger Hall and his son Jack have a policy of shoot first ask questions later in dealing with humans that they seem to enjoy. Perhaps somewhat understandable as the zombie outbreak did turn a number of human survivors homicidally insane. Then again, that they take it to an extreme that makes them obviously [[Trigger Happy]] is what makes them among those humans themselves.
* Axl of [[Mega Man X]], especially compared to [[Technical Pacifist]] X and [[Shell Shocked Senior]] Zero.
* [[Final Fantasy VII]]: The typical response of [[Scary Black Man|Barret Wallace]] to any problem he faces is to let loose with the drill/[[Chainsaw/BFG|BFG]] he's got hooked up to the end of his arm. It's [[Justified]] later in the game when you find out just why Barret's so [[Trigger Happy]] to begin with.
* In ''[[Jagged Alliance 2]]'', any mercenary with the "Psycho" trait can and will, when armed with a weapon capable of automatic fire, fire it on automatic. Even if you told them to fire a single shot or a burst.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin|Trigger Happy]] from ''[[Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure]]''. He's a crazy gremlin [[Gun Slinger|goldslinger]] whose main weapons are [[Guns Akimbo|a pair of]] [[Bling Bling Bang|golden guns]] that [[Abnormal Ammo|shoot golden coins.]] His personality is described as gunplay being his [[Your Answer to Everything|solution to every problem]] and he "will take down any bad guy... usually without bothering to aim."
Line 120:
== [[Web Comics]] ==
* [[Meaningful Name|Craze]] from ''[[Building 12]]''.
* Freckle of Lack a daisy fame is this- though he generally only becomes so when he has a gun in hand.
* Vaarsuvius of [[The Order of the Stick]] would be this if s/he had a gun. As it is, s/he just uses spell spam.
