Try it again. But give the targets the opportunity to return fire with non-lethals or stuff like Airsoft, Simunition, or paintballs.
While undoubtedly a step above normal targets. It still falls short in the sense that actual human targets are very well likely shooting back.
My feeling was that the headline was a bit overstated too. You are correct.
Correct. They have nothing to be afraid of in that situation. it's still better than non moving target practice tho.
I took note of one of those shooters taken his time on the 2nd shot...NOT going to happen in actual situation....been there, done that!!!!!!!!
