There have been numerous cases, where both participants, armed with revolvers, have emptied their guns at a range of feet, with all shots missing their intended targets.

reminds me of Get smart episode- where Smart and KAOS agent are shooting across alley- neither hitting anything of consequence

Jules: This was Divine Intervention! You know what “divine intervention” is?
Vincent: Yeah, I think so. That means God came down from Heaven and stopped the bullets.
Jules: Yeah, man, that’s what it means. That’s exactly what it means! God came down from Heaven and stopped the bullets.
Vincent: I think we should be going now.
Jules: Don’t do that! Don’t you * do that! Don’t blow this * off! What just happened was a * miracle!
Vincent: Chill the * out, Jules, this * happens.
Jules: Wrong! Wrong, this * doesn’t just happen.
Vincent: Do you wanna continue this theological discussion in the car, or at the jailhouse with the cops?
Jules: We should be * dead now, my friend! We just witnessed a miracle, and I want you to * acknowledge it!
Vincent: Okay man, it was a miracle, can we leave now?

I know better. With practice, in a gunfight, you can shoot the guns out of six or eight people’s hands before they can get even one shot off. No misses. I saw it on Blazing Saddles, so it must be true.

The assailant who was shot at, was driven from the scene by a person most assume was a confederate.

What year was this article written?

Clearly better gun control is in order. The VICTIM should be sentenced to twenty sessions at the range.

But did he get his wallet back?

Yep. I once witnessed the other extreme as a juror in a murder trial. It was a New Orleans crack house shootout (definitely close quarters) where the deceased and the man on trial shot each other five times with .38 revolvers - and both were trying to reload when they collapsed. One died, we sent the other to Angola.

Seeing those forensic photos made me go buy a .45.

Six Shots?

Due to the increased cost of ammo, there will be no warning shots.

**the victim pulled out his own gun and both men pointed the firearms at each other.**

I see this a lot in modern movies and TV shows. Two people pull guns and hesitate, as if waiting till the other person pulls the trigger or not. If you realize he IS pulling the trigger can you are dead.

"How could you miss?"

"He moved."

"Shut up! Go and practice!"
