* Addresses their gun by [[I Call It "Vera"|an affectionate name]].
* Fond of stroking or licking the gun barrel in a [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|suggestive manner]].
* Greets people via [[Click. "Hello."]].
* Will shoot at the [[Disproportionate Retribution|slightest]] [[Murder Is the Best Solution|provocation]]—this is what "trigger happy" ''[[Trope Namer|means]]'', colloquially.
* Can often be seen or heard laughing or [[Shouting Shooter|shouting]] while firing.
Line 77:
* Jayne on ''[[Firefly]]''. There aren't many scenes where he ''isn't'' carrying some sort of weapon.
** He's shown to be [[Crazy Prepared]] as far as weapons go. His whole room is filled to the brim with them and in the Big Damn Movie, the one time he wants to bring grenades but gets overruled by Mal, the team ends up needing them.
{{quote|'''Jayne:''' [''as the crew is being pursued by Reavers''] [[Sarcasm Mode|Boy, sure would be nice if we had some]] ''[[Sarcasm Mode|GRENADES]]'', [[Sarcasm Mode|don't you think?!]]

* 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.
Line 94:
== [[Tabletop Games]] ==
* The Orks of [[Warhammer
* In ''[[Warhammer Fantasy Battle]]'' the Skaven Doomwheel must be fired at someone every turn. If there are enemies within range, all the better.
