    • Trivia
      He is one of the top marksmen of the United States. He already won several prestigious titles in shooting competitions. He is considered as one of the most qualified specialists of the .45 ACP Pistol. His abilities impressed so much the writer & director Michael Mann, that he decided to give him his first break as an actor in Miami Vice (in which Zubiena played an Argentinian hitman in the espisode Hit List) and in Manhunter (in which he also served as weapon handler).
