I know nothing about a chronograph, except generaly how they work. So, why would lighting affect readings? Is it like trying to tead your phone screen on dorect broght sunlight, or does light affect the screens sensing as the bullet passes thru the screens?

The Blaster from Bladerunner (1982).

I believe those where combination of a Mini-14 and Ithical Model 37 hidden under all that plastic. The movie consumed the most round of blank ammo ever in a move up to the time of its filming. Not sure if its been exceed yet or not. It was somewhere north of 300,000 rds of blank ammo in training and filming.

Sadly I find hard to believe that they will ever make any more large scale Blank Firing prop guns movies in the future.. CGI can do it so cheaply and then you have the extra expense of people watching and feeding the guns..

If you have the chance to pop this classic movie in your DVD player, slow mo the guns when they are shooting.. They have fully automatic mini-14s (ac556) in those shells. Now count the shells coming out of the gun compared to the flashes.. They CGI like 3 or 4 flashes on the barrel for every blank that is actually fired. Movie magic.. Or if we want to explain the future each shell hold 4 caseless rounds... Hey I like that.

John Wayne's SAA with the yellowed grips with finger grooves on one side, Winchester 92's, Quigley's Sharps, Clint Eastwood pistols and that rifle he shot the ferry rope into with in The Outlaw Josey Wales, William Holden's 1911 in the Wild Bunch plus that Browning machine gun at the end, Jimmy Stewart's Winchester '73, and John Wayne's Greeners of course. Everyone should be able to tell I'm a fan of westerns from my choices.
 
I liked all of the guns used in the movie "Legends of the Fall" Everything from the 1870's through WW-1 into the 1920's. Check out the ammo on Brad Pitt's shoulder while hunting Africa post WW-1. Guessing that is either 2 or 4 bore black powder rounds for the double rifle he is carrying.
