It shot just fine, that one. I remember being quite surprised at it's accuracy. Shot placement with that one would be easy enough. I, too, am a believer in the 'one shot, one kill' mind-set. It was trained into me many years ago in the army as a rifleman. I took the same mentality with me to the pistol shooting range, when I held my licence for that, using only, what is PC termed, 'Keyhole' targets. Normal people would call them man shaped targets.
Those days are gone now, sadly. It became too difficult, with this countries firearms laws, and the requirements put on pistol shooters, for me to maintain the sport. I sold my pistols and gave up my licence. I still pine for the loss of some of my firearms...Bloody stupid politicians!

Very sorry to hear that, Mick. Maybe some things will change over there and the gun rights will be allowed to return someday.

Guns are like condoms. I'd rather have it and not need it then need it and not have it!!!

MY TEN RULES OF A GUNFIGHT

1. Bring a gun. Hell, bring at least two.(Bring all your friends with guns also)

2. Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice.

3. Only hits count. You can't miss fast enough.

4. If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough or using cover correctly.

5. Keep shooting until the threat no longer exists.

6. If you can choose what to bring to a gun fight, bring a long gun and a friend.

7. In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.

8. If you are not shooting, you should be reloading or running.

9. Accuracy is relative: most hits will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than on the skill of the shooter or the inherent accuracy of the gun.

10. Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it's empty.
