Former Bond hates guns

Roger Moore as James Bond.

James Bond star Roger Moore, known for his polished use of a Walther PPK and licence to kill, has admitted that he never liked guns.

Moore, who played Bond from 1973 to 1985 never wanted to glorify firearms. "I never liked guns, I hate them, I always blink before they go off."

About the character he said, "He's an action hero, a good man fighting evil ... I always looked upon Bond as a giant comic strip. Nothing about Bond is real. I mean the idea that a spy is known by everybody is ridiculous. Imagine, every barman in the world knew Bond and served him martinis."
