Train!

Hell this guy is good

If nothing else we should practice at some extreme distance with our carry pieces because it looks like fun.




Again, I don't blame the guy for not taking the shot (Especially at 65 yards) but my earlier point is that you don't have to pulleing off a 1-shot-kill headshot from that range, you just need to convince the guy to stop shooting at innocent/unarmed people. If that means he turns his gun in your direction, that will suck but its going to be harder for him to hit you than the people 5 feet away from him.

I understand it can be done I just hit a milk jug on a hill 200 yards out with my 7.62x25 TTC but I was not shooting at a guy holding an AK47, just for a second put yourself in that guys shoes he is stairing at a guy moving with an AK47 65 yards away, at most this guy probably has your average ccw training were you are shooting at targets 4 to 7 feet away and probably had a 380 or something along those lines, now obviously the guy with the AK is a KILLER the BBQ guy probably not. The closest this guy has probably come to seeing much less being up against an AK47 is in a video game. So with the Human moving target holding a very large Rifle with a very powerful nasty 7.62x39 which will zip right through a car and or building I can understand the guy not taking the shot, now what he should not have done was gone to the press and talked about it, I may have got it wrong but I do believe he went on and said he had a clear shot but did not take it.

I've done the inaction in the face of an armed criminal once ... was two decades ago and still bothers me to this day. YMMV but I'd rather get shot than live through that kind of guilt/shame/regret again.

not to mention the gong is stationary, winds are calm and the area is shrouded in trees. Familiar area and in this scenario, Missing has no repercussions.

The last thing you wants is an errant round bouncing through a parking lot at a crowded restaurant.

I would rather NOT take the shot at range, quickly move closer if I felt that I Must act(Family Member in IHOP), take a shot within my comfort range (<30 yards)

Thank you finally someone that knows, I got into a knife fight when I was 17 stabbed him 2 times, it was self defense but I will never forget it.

I would Die for my wife and Kids so at that point I am with you I would have closed the distance and taken the shot, because without them I would have nothing to live for. But still that was a pretty good shot with that little glock.

Anyone that's met me and looked at my face can probably tell you.
