Great post. What this officer did was truly heroic and took real guts.
Ask any combat vet - despite all the training, the reality of being there is something else again.

I must agree, when you are in contact, things are Ono the same as at the range. I have an old SW Model 29, 44 mag. I enjoy shooting this weapon, I have had it for 2o some years and have grow in confidence in my ability to shoot it at moving or still targets. Practice, practice makes you better. I feel comfortable with it up to 40 yards, like I said I have been using it for a while and shoot almost every week. I Feel the officer did his job and saved lives.
