    The fact that you're bending over backward to find a way around their nonsense is proof that its working. Your life will be just a little bit less free and they will be more powerful THAT is all they really want.

    This isn't true. I'm not trying to find a way around anything, especially that which does not yet exist.
    (Yes, I did try to get a bit "creative" with my title. Sorry ....)
    I was merely showing that the theory of "Gee, if there were only smaller capacity mags around, there would not have been as many victims in these mass shootings ." does not hold up.

    COFI pointed to the Mad Minute method for rifles. I looked up a few related videos and was impressed by how many rounds a BOLT action can put down range in such a short time...and with reasonable accuracy.

    Plus, for those that have never seen this video, the guy is ASTONISHINGLY fast.
    Mag ban or not, I think the video is worth spending the 0:23 sec it lasts for, to view it.

    some irony for the OP..

    Tomasie chose to work for and represent PARA USA because their high capacity pistols give him the expert choice he needs to defend his National and World Championships. His choice of pistol for USPSA and IPSC competition is a PARA 16-40 Limited.

    Thanks for pointing this out.

    Seeing how fast he reloads, at a practical level, I can't see it making a difference.
    He has the capability to put a LOT of lead down range quickly with small or large cap mags.

    However, at the competition level, every msec counts. He knows what combination is best for him.


    I still say he's "IMPRESSIVE"...
