Maybe we should incorporate this into our next class?
I want to see the actual conditions before I start basing training on reports in the news. Hats off to the guy on a job well done, regardless of the actual times, distances, movement to cover, throwing the girlfriend on the floor, whatever.
"Supposed"?how about (supposedly) an actual pic from the food court where it happened?
red X is your target…

Pic is circulating the internet. Of course gun and hand is superimposed over the food court. But some on other forums have said they are familiar with the mall and food court and that is it."Supposed"?

Of course it is. This was after everybody left. 🤪Supposed food court is empty.
A member on the Sig forum says he knows a leo involved and our GG had a GL19 with WML. Nothing else. Scored 8 hits out of 10 shots. He did better than most trained police or military could do and he’s neither with zero training.40 yrds on a man sized threat isn't all that difficult, but under stress it's quite difficult even for the best pistolero's.
Did the shooter have a dot on his glock or open sights, makes a LOT of difference in longer shots.
That's good shooting with irons under stress in anyone's book.A member on the Sig forum says he knows a leo involved and our GG had a GL19 with WML. Nothing else. Scored 8 hits out of 10 shots. He did better than most trained police or military could do and he’s neither with zero training.
For sure. 22yr old ‘kid’?That's good shooting with irons under stress in anyone's book.![]()
Nope. According to the police chief, he was not formally trained in any way. He told the police his grandfather taught him to shoot. That's it..i'm guessing he has participated in some sort of shooting games or has a real knack for video gaming/quick target acquisition and a steady hand...
i salute his grandfather...but i wasnt referring to formal training...we had a youngster show up at idpa one week with no experience whatsoever...he was a bit cocky and mentioned that he played splatball games with his friends...kid nailed every scenario with honors...fast on his feet...quick aquisition and deadly accuracy...practice of any kind can be valuable...Nope.

A truly remarkable performance.

If his Grandfather is still available he may be as popular a trainer as Jack Wilson!Nope. According to the police chief, he was not formally trained in any way. He told the police his grandfather taught him to shoot. That's it.
