Maybe “gunnut” could post a video of himself (I’m quite certain this person is male) shooting, say, the F.A.S.T.

Once we see how effortlessly he cleans it in under five seconds, we’ll understand what he means.

Fast X,

Boards tend to be dominated by those with not much broad experience and almost no teaching experience. This means they have opinions that are not as useful as they might be–and frequently are not accurate. Todd is more experienced than me; there are others more experienced than Todd. Of course. Experience is not the whole story though. The ability to see what others experience and need is key also. Here is where Todd who has a lot of teaching experience is better than someone with no teaching experience but a lot of trigger time and even quite a few classes. But even being a teacher does not guarantee a good opinion because many teachers think they have arrived and must indoctrinate the troops either figuratively or literally. There are many older shooters who were army taught decades ago and think that was the be all and end all (and in fact they dont know that much in todays world and reality–the caliber wars are great examples).

That said reset IS critical for maximum speed and maximum accuracy for most shooters of average skill. The elite mil/le units may be able to shoot a dime at 10 yards with speed and accuracy with anything in their hands. But there will be a difference in speed and accuracy between action even among those types. (Of course then there are the types who insist the a lousy speed/accuracy action is ok because it only has to have “combat” accuracy [this is never defined though]; this in my option is one of the more silly things I have ever heard: Who knows when the range might be 100 feet with margin of 6 inches or less.)

Stephen — To be honest, my stance on situational ethics depends on a lot of factors, but I am 100% opposed to absolutism.

Rob E — That’s a negative, Ghost Rider.

So, basically what you’re saying here is you hate politicians, situational ethics, and anti-absolutism. I couldn’t agree more. Wish those three came with a reset of any distance.
Good Rant!

You know what they say about getting advice on the internet … it’s worth what you paid.
