I don't think our local leaders are cynical - they just don't trust the law-abiding citizen...they think govt is THE answer to everything and most people here in HI agree. The one thing I point out to people like this is the concrete boondoggle called the rail....govt isn't made up of the brightest people. Even if they proclaim that they are a medical doctor.
On average, who are the most crooked?

If you're focusing on the front sight, everything past 7 yards is going to be a blur anyway.

Is this regarding CWP or something with the shooter?

Forget handguns. Gotta start carrying one AR15 with a 100 rd clip that can fire 30 bullets in 1 second.

Amazing.  And under stress with people running around for cover.  Guy must've been training regularly and a lot.

I wonder how he is handling all the attention.  If it was me I'd be pissed and telling everyone to leave me alone.  Those f**kn anti-gun nuts would probably start protesting at my house. :grrr:

One thing we tend to ignore is natural ability.  Some people are just naturals at some skills when it might take the average person years to come close to duplicating that level of performance.

Getting 8 of 10 rounds (80%) on target from that distance under pressure and likely feeling the effects of adrenaline takes more than just range time.  Even Cops can't do half that well on average.  And this guy is only 22.

If all it took was hours of practice, anyone with enough motivation could have been Tiger Woods.   :geekdanc: :shaka:

Yes, agree that some individuals are just plain naturals.  I'm kinda jealous, lol!
