Semi-Automatic versus Single Action Speed Test

I found this after watching some videos recommended by Anymouse.

Rename the Single Action gun “The Swiss Cheese Maker Assault 3000” and politicians will be calling for its ban, saying no one is entitled to such a “killing machine.”

Anymouse sent this one- A 13 year-0ld with a lever competition rifle versus a fully automatic machine gun.

Bring this clip to Congress.

  1. It is not nor ever has been the “tool”…. it is always about the craftsman.

  2. Then why does every 13 y/o think that if he has a Stratocaster he’ll play like Jimi Hendrix and/or Eric Clapton? Or, if a Telecaster, like Danny Gatton?

    (I agree, just being contrary)

    izlamo delenda est …

  3. now that was a great example of common sense gun control measures !

    now they should lower the age to buy a gun to 13 since dylan’s gun control was so good, right ?

  4. Everything comes down to a reliable, accurate, well made firearm, training and practice, practice, practice where muscle memory and technique allows you to be unconsciously competent, fast and accurate.

  5. While it still has some hurdles in the senate and governor’s desk. Liberals in Illinois made me class 3 felon yesterday.

    I own 50+ “high capacity” (LOL!) feed devices. Oh the humanity! Legal one day, but not the next, this is how felons are born.

    If this shit passes, I’m gone, fuck family and friends. I will not be made a felon overnight! Well maybe a few months until I can sell.

  6. Okay, without posting other videos we have guys capable of dumping TEN ROUNDS out of a lever gun on target in less than TWO SECONDS, loading and firing on target Four Rounds from a pump shotgun in under 2 1/2 seconds and (without fanning) drawing and firing on target again under 2 1/2 seconds ten rounds two single action pistols.

    Imagine on that last one; you draw the first pistol and dump five rounds on a target and re-holster that first pistol, then draw the second and dump five more rounds on target AGAIN, under 2 1/2 seconds. Takes a whole lot more time to read this last paragraph than it takes him to do it.

    Probably only about 800 FPS on the pistol (38) so as the MS Media has already explained it would be useless against an “assault rifle.”

  7. We have ARs, but if my life depended on me dealing out a lot of death at relatively close quarters I would be using one of our slamfire Ithaca 37s. If they were good enough for tunnel rats in Vietnam, tey are good enough for me.

  8. Watched Jerry Miculek fire 12 rounds out of a 6 shot revolver on target in under 3 seconds. He had to reload in that time. He wasn’t young in that video either. Sounded like a burst from an automatic weapon, had to watch it twice to even count the shots. Practice makes perfect.
