Think you can shoot fast?

I thought some of you might like this. It's a video of Jerry Miculek, the fastest revolver shooter in the world. I've been after some footage of this for years and I just found it....

It's only 740k :)

 

The start is impressive enough (if you've ever fired a revolver doubly so!) but the last bit with the reload simply flabbers my ghast :eek: I've watched it many times and I simply cannot comprehend the speed of that reload!! Reloading revolvers is a fiddly bastard job even with a speedloader or (in Jerry's case) moon clips. Bearing in mind every shot he fires is in the 'A' zone of the target...

 

:notworthy

How far off that are you Ian?

 

Realistically, with a good speedloader and a clean gun so it dumps the casings easily, and a speedloader, probably just under 6 seconds with some practice.

 

And yes, he hit the A zone of every target, usually his groups are playing-card sized...

Haha I'm bagging that now, that's class, good old raceguns. That's like $4000 of gun, mega mega custom. I was never into those - bit like drag cars, I can appreciate them but I prefer multirole capable stuff. That gun would be hopeless in "real life" but it's impressive to watch. The rules for Jerry was that the gun was bone stock out-of-the-box :eek:
