I used to shoot a little bit with a state trooper - I worked with his wife

One day I shot the hostage on the target instead of the bad guy

Took my earmuffs off and I said “oops I shot the hostage!”

He said “that’s OK. Now he’s got nothing to negotiate with!”

He shot my Ruger .45 - one magazine - next magazine he grouped them all at 75 feet - about 1-1/4 inches.

He said wow! I said yeah that’s what it’s supposed to do.

I couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn with it - I tried 185 grain - 195 - 230

9mm I can put 3 in the head at 21 feet without practice

With that ,45 not so much

It wasn’t the gun - sadly it’s gone now but I have two new Springfield.45 pistols
