[@ponytailalogginalong6605]

I live on a gun range private club that my grandparents were founding members of & missed out on one on one instruction from them & my dad. I have returned as an adult & I can aim decent at 25 yards with action pistol. I have to shoot two handed-got carpal tunnel & probably a bit of nerve damage, & my fingers are short. I do best shooting my rounds without stopping vs 1 shot & resting. Sometimes I'm hitting target like a pro getting many 9 & 10 pointers, & sometimes my shots are outside the center I'm aiming for by two inches in all directions of the center. Where am I screwing it up? Am I holding gun too firmly or too loosely making in recoil or bounce away from my goal?

Ya, If she is not totally ruined for life, it's a miracle! That seems to be the point, I believe many cops/people don't think about in situations like this. When the shooter shot that hostage girl's father...he destroyed two lives!!!

The sniper did not destroy two lives the father did, Jackass

[@phyrr2]

​@@k1j2f30 Many of these kids end up in foster care, then as prostitutes and addicts and often dead to that or suicide. Nobody thinks of or cares about such consequences. Not like it's her fault her dad was a douche, but she has to bear the sin of the father if you will. Everyone just moves on and forgets and nobody tries to help the children. Often, these kids would prefer an abusive parent than being in foster. If you've ever known anyone who's been in that system, you'd understand. Even researchers are coming to that conclusion (at least in some cases). Kids can't support themselves, period.

[@k1j2f30]

@@phyrr2 I think you need to reread my reply, again. I was trying to explain how the cop that killed her father while she was restrained by her father using her as a shield, not only killed her father but basically (killed her) ruined her life too! The police/law enforcement, seldom seem to think of that aspect! Her life is ruined, likely something she will never be able to deal with, creating two casualties...from one gunshot!

I've always had that question about the bore vs the scope. I've never had it answered in my exploration of the subject on the net, but I had figured that it would be the reason why they have those graduations on the crosshairs.

[@rchi3906]

Very good description , had almost the same scenario on patrol 12 feet apart , knife to female throat , but I had much more of perp facial area to work with , factory sights glk 19 , gave me a flashback and the rest is history

This is a *FANTASTIC* account of how it is in high stress situations. If you stop thinking and rely solely on instincts, you actually make MORE mistakes. However, sometimes you don't actually have the kind of TIME this guy described. 😓 Sometimes, you only have 3 minutes to solve a problem that would take 99% of the most capable humans... six.

[@jenniturtleburger3708]

I don’t even think he should have been the shooter. Running to the head if the stack. Wrong scope, borrowing a teammates rifle where he didn’t know dude had his white light turned way up etc. Sounds like a glory hound to me.

Imagine actually telling your barber to give you that haircut.

[@CantTellYou]

This means at some point in history, some dude walked into a haircut holding a picture of a small island & said “I want that”. Fast forward years later, he becomes a cop. All the cops are so envious of his small island cut that they want the small island. They NEED the small island. And the rest is history...
