I'm watching the 90s heist movie "Heat". It has a running gun battle with automatic weapons in the streets of LA, and the gunshots in the movie echo about as much as I'd expect at an indoor range.

I know what lots of gunfire sounds like indoors, and out in a field, but I've never had the misfortune to hear gunfire in a downtown area with lots of concrete and buildings to echo gunshots.

Is "almost as much echoing as an i door range" an accurate representation of gunfire in a dense urban area, or did they screw up and record their gunshots indoors and hope their audience wouldnt know any better?

It depends where the microphone is in relation to the gunfire, and how close the concrete walls are to the mic as well. Sound levels drop off really fast with not much distance. Even a foot makes a huge difference.
