Robert Patrick, of T1000 fame, practiced shooting guns without blinking or closing his eyes in any way for Terminator 2 because "Machines don't flinch."

Wow as if I couldn't love him any more.

Arnold was iconic in T2, but Robert Patrick was pretty freaking amazing as the T1000. I don't think the movie would be the same without him.

I believe he also practiced so much that he could operate the guns without looking because "why would a machine need to look?"

I saw somewhere that in order to seem more robotic in his scenes he did not turn his head to look, he just kind of shifted his eyes in that direction.
