Any word on how far the shooter was from Davis? Apparently Davis was struck twice in the chest. A person using a pistol would have to be a pretty good shot, I would think.

Not hard at all to do, FRiend.

At my unit's last weapons qual, I was putting rounds in the heart ring with a 9mm at 25 meters - that's roughly 75 feet. I'm confident that the ranges involved here aren't near that great.

If this was a hit, by someone shaking hands with the target, we're talking point-blank.
