Considering that I am an avid hunter and own many of the accoutrements necessary to pursue that pastime ... bring it. Once out of the ghetto, the thought patterns might change when confronted my hunters and gun owners that acutely know how to shoot. And no, I have never shot a pistol holding on the horizontal ... hard to anticipate the kick in that position.
We shoot woodchucks at 400 yards,larger varmints at that distance would be so easy..
One interesting fact I picked up way back. An LE organization (I can't remember which one, but FBI feels right) surveyed crooks who shot cops. Turns out many of them, when they get a gun, want to shoot it, and will procure ammo and find an isolated area to shoot.
Many turned out to be better shots than the average LE officer was back then. Not that a practiced law abiding shooter wouldn't have an advantage, but the crook could be more formidable than you'd think such a moron would be.

It is as though you pulled that very thought out of one of the articles to which I linked.
