It's the same thing with fighting, punch, step... shoot step... also it's easy to do with a target, not so easy with someone shooting back... untrained or not, they are bound to hit someone.

Should be instinctive, reaction to contact counter ambush, turn towards target and close agressively, shoot move and communicate, two cops, two sidearms, 90 feet; team skirmish fire and movement, can't get any easier than that, it's not as if they had to plan and execute a company attack.

With the adrenal dump vs. five-five-six, you're probably not even going to notice that you got hit until after he's dead.

People who can't shoot straight are incompatible with western culture. We should send them back to where they came from.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

Wot, Greece? Pretty sure they'd kick you out of Greece for shooting like that, they have universal conscription.

Wouldn't be allowed in Sparta (if Spartans had rifles). They killed you if you couldn't fight.

You and I may be made that way, but most Americans I know outside of my friends who are military or trained, duck and then run...

My wife is a gun rejecting Canadian who works in IT and even she's been trained to close with and destroy with maximum speed violence and agression. After much complaining mind you, none the less, she's met the minimum standard.
