Acceptable gun control

| March 9, 2011

Tman sends us a link to an article about Battle of the Bulge sniper veteran Ted Gundy who was given the opportunity to fire a modern tool of the sniper at 1000 meter target;

‘I hope that I can hit the target but if I was betting money I’d bet nine to one that I don’t. That’s a long, long way.’

But his modesty was greater than his skills and he managed with ease to pick off the target, with three impressive head shots all within five inches of each other.

He said afterwards: ‘I couldn’t believe I could have hit anything that far away.’

I love stuff like this. That man has forgotten more about shooting than I’ll ever know. Very, very nice!

Thank you, Tman!

The bad guys might be wearing a vest so forget center mass. Paint a headshot smile instead!

I have to say this brought a tear to my eye and a twinkle. To hear his voice crack and then to watch his focus, clarity, determination, steadiness and patience… absolutely amazing.

Holy crap! I read about his shot, but this is the first time I have seen video of it. 5″ group at 1000 yards and all head shots? Damn.
