Cop buddies tell me -- average firefight distance -- 21 FEET.....
Ever see the videos of 2 or 3 people in a firefight at close range and NOBODY gets shot.... Lots of lead flying around - close range... leads going somewhere!
My buddy asked me why the .45? I just said - because If I hit an intruder he IS going to be hurt regardless of where I hit him...That would be my intention. Separately - shoot a .45 at someone - THEY WILL BE SCARED... so even if I miss... they may stop what they're doing. Mission accomplished.
John and Meryl have been showing me lots of techniques for accuracy... THAT to me is the most important part of all of this -- be accurate under pressure - under duress.... Know your weapon. Practice practice practice.
