3 hits of out 17 is better than many cops do in a 'real fight'.

If those TV tapes of cops getting into shoot outs are any indication most cops are too busy going all girly to shoot straight. They act like they have never considered that the shite might hit the fan one day. (I actually believe this is true).

I love watching the one where the State Trooper jinks away from a mutts murderous shot, pops up, one hands (no time for two) his semi-auto and fires like he is laser locked on the guy. THAT'S the way to respond!

Yep, it doesn't matter how good you are at the range. No one knows how they will react in that situation unless they've gone through it. I'd say this guy did quite well, and he definitely has a set of brass ones for going after the perp. This guy is no sheep.

I shoot USPSA and one of my favorite gags is to bring along one of my cop friends. Their tactics look good, but their shooting is atrocious. This must be said with the caveat that it was a police officer that got me into competition shooting and with a stock .45, his times rival some of the race gun guys. The cops don't practice nearly enough. Of course that applies to most ccw owners too.
