In his day David, (prior to becomming King of Israel), sunk a 1.+ caliber hard ball slug just above and between the eyes of a famous soldier of the Philistine infantry. His tactics were: Head shot first, then take the enemies weapon from him and remove the head with his own sword. This so demoralized the Philistine troops and encouraged the Israeli army that the nation won a great victory that day.
Unfortunately, most of us aren't as skilled with our sidearm as David was.
Fortunately, we are not facing warfare and a heavily armoured enemy; therefore, different tactics are needed.
As for me, practice, practice, practice, train, train, train. If ever forced to defend life and limb. Center mass (slight heart side), and move to the head before emptying the magazine. That's my .02s . None of this double tap. Stop... Evaluate.... Engage again stuff. There are far better marksmen and there are combat experts far better than me that would disagree, but until they give me a very good reason to change tactics.............
I have high respect for those who teach the Mozambique drill, but why not say quadruple tap, then go for the head, when the gun is dry and you have found cover, then evaluate? There must be a GROSS PROBLEM with this tactic if its never mentioned by the trainers in the gun magazines. What am I missing?
By the way, I enjoyed the quotes, Rich.
