Real bad guys, as opposed to paper targets, seldom stand still when you point a gun at them if they are not surrendering.
4 out of 4 hits on target sounds like good numbers to me.

I don't know that I could do as much under stress.

I'm sure the fact that they had knives and he had a gun helped his stress level somewhat.1TallTXn wrote:sound like the shooter needs to work on his aim.
most bedrooms aren't that big to be more then ~15ft away at any time. I would think you could put the rds into CoM very easily at that distance!
I'm not that great of a shot, but at 15ft I can put them all in a quite small target.
now taking into account the stress of the situation will have a factor in the accuracy, but it sounds like the guy had his head on pretty straight. telling the BG to drop it before firing.
What's that old saw about bringing a gun to a knife fight? I don't think the BGs were aware of the statistics on gun-owning households.
