A style of wushu involving the manipulation of a gun, which is a bamboo staff about one arm's length taller than the user. The style involves manipulating the staff in broad motions, meaning it requires a large amount of space, keen spatial awareness, and an even greater control over the weapon, as opposed to a sword.

While anyone can approach this style, it is ideal for someone who is tall and with a lean build. Power and flexibility are integral to this style.

When doing gunshu in competition, low stances, high jumps, sharp timing, and clearly defined moves get the best scores.
Student: I've completed the elementary longfist form. Can I start studying a weapon now?

At first, gunships were naval vessels sporting guns, very simple. In more recent history, the term gunship has been aplied to aircraft. The role of a modern gunship is to get as much ordinance on the target as possible and blow the shit out of the enemy. Gunships come in the form of both fixed wing aircraft and helicopters. Gunships are usually based on a designasted gunship frame (the AH-64 Apache)or off cargo style craft that have been modified for the purpose (AC-47 Spooky).
The US military uses the gunship for close air support and shock and awe missions. The gunship is usually in support of other units. They circle or patrol a certain area and unleash hell as needed.
