This sound was used in the second episode of the Stories of Yore and Yours podcast - "The Most Dangerous Game," by Richard Connell. Thank you for uploading, and if you're so inclined, check out the show!

(My links keep getting flagged as spam, so I can't post a link, but you can find Stories of Yore and Yours anywhere podcasts are found, besides Spotify and iHeartRadio for now. Thanks again!)

Nice, it's obviously genuine, though I can't be sure it's not the decocker on a semi auto but what ever, it gives it versatility anyway.

The only two problems are this.
First, it has echo, so it can only be used in certain scenes, I suggest recording in a closet with a mattress against the door if possible, or any other area with carpet and thick fabric.
I know it sounds strange, but the clothes on one side and the mattress on the other massively reduces reverb.

Second is that you got a bit too close to the mike, try recording it three or four times and listening to it closely to find the best version.

I still gave it 3 out of 5 stars though.
