And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
That's SOP for Cowboy Action Shooting. Anybody in the top 10% can whip through shells in that thing like it was an 1100 with a 20-round extension tube.
We had some old phart at a match shooting a single-action, and some 30-something local PD SWAT-type all geared and tacced up, waiting for us to finish our match so they could have the ranges, and po-po dude thought the guy was shooting a 1911 instead of a SAA, given how he was ringing steel like a machinegunner. "I thought you guys weren't allowed to use semi autos?"
When we pointed out his error, after he took a closer look, his only comment was "I'm glad you folks are the good guys!"
Some local police officers showed up at a Cowboy Action match to watch the fun. We invited them to shoot with us, and offered to supply guns and ammo so they wouldn't have to account for the rounds shot at the match. They agreed, watched one of the young kids rip through a stage, simply said "Nope", watched for a while longer, and left.
Skills. She has them.

DeleteOverhead loading lets you keep your dominant hand on the trigger, the bad guy down range doesn't know you're empty.
ReplyDeleteShe'd be hell in a Wood duck blind with 15/20 woodies coming in.
ReplyDeleteWonder what a game warden would do...watching something like that... dumping ducks in a pond....and the gun has the proper plug in the magazine?!
DeleteDown-range of her, I'm not sure you'd care about technique...
