Fast thinking, or just lucky?

[TFOGGER]

Either way, I'm glad the cop is ok.

I saw that this morning..

I don't know whether he is just damn lucky or eff'n smart..

Mixture of both?

Repeatedly pulled the trigger enough to snap his finger..

When I broke a finger my first reaction was to jerk my hand back..

Fight or flight is a strange thing indeed.. [Beer]

Wow...I bet that cop won't have a clean pair of pants for weeks. But hell, that would be totally fine with me...

[Lex_Luthor]

I bet it was fast thinking my uncle used to try to teach me that on a 1911 when I was a kid. The funny thing is I was just thinking about that the other day when I had my Rossi 357 out, I was thinking about how much it would hurt if you had your finger in there when the hammer dropped.
