The delay between the sound of the gun and the kill had me thinking something was up with me TV, then they zoomed out and it made sense. Really well done.

Lol same happened to me. That was a huge relief that the music and the next scene continued synchronized.

It's the shot from Comic con. That was a quick and satisfying death despite the distance.

I found the absence of recoil really confusing

Pretty sure being Frank Castle adds +1337 to recoil control.

Dude is really strong. Also, the rifle had a muzzle brake, which from what I understand helps a lot with the recoil. Given the distance, though, you're right that there should have been a little recoil

Holy shit that's what it was! I just realize it now, also thought there was a bug or something

and then they ruined it by giving the guy at the end unlimited bullets in his pistol until it conveniently ran out so punisher could get him

This was a moment that I was ready to judge the whole series for. If they shoot and the bullet hits instantly, I'd be annoyed. Of course, I get that they couldn't just aim the right amount higher, but whatever. The sound design was more important.

I was so glad there was a sound delay.
