I've said it before, but I'll say it again.

Restaurant kitchen scene where Nikita must carry out a hit in order to pass her final test proving to her mentor she is ready for active duty.

Not the best choice for a slight build, but she has a DE with a spare mag.

Judging by the recoil there is a tinsy winsy possibility that the film's armourer had modifications made to shoot something a tad smaller than .50cal ...

Still one of my favourites!!
Youtube clip:
Nikita's baptism of fire!
