I just checked, RJ. Now I know why I thought what I did. That's because many guns shoot at greater than 2x the speed of the sound, just like I was saying.
An 8mm round travels at 1636 MPH, on average. That's more than double mach 2.
An M16 rifle's bullets (the NATO round) all travel faster than that.
HOWEVER!
The guns Impediment gave Batman are the HK94 and Berreta. I have no idea what kind of gun the HK-94 is. If it's the MP5, you're right, the bullets travel at the speed of sound. If he meant the more logical choice of the M4, they use those NATO rounds, which are more than double the speed of sound.
If Mclane gets another gun like an AK-47 or any other type of common automatic, then the rounds are still about double the speed of sound.
See, I wasn't crazy.
lol
Now, onto his pistol. It shoots slow bullets. The Beretta has some large ass, slow ass, rounds.
