Caliber debates about pistols are worthless

Haha, this is funny.


Serious question. Why did he go prone behind the tree? I don't have a ton of experience, but I know I can't shoot for crap laying down. I realize it worked to his advantage in the end, but if you shoot someone 14 times and they are still up running around, I doubt that laying down would cross my mind.

It's called shooting from cover. Laying prone, in his case enabled steadier shots. Also forcing the perp to offer potential head shot by looking under car, which did happen.
