tsk tsk.

It just proves that the cops need to improve their shot placement :mrgreen:
All kidding aside, under the circumstances, I would have to say that all in the torso of the bad guy with no police rounds in a good guy is extraordinary marksmanship. Few could do as well in the same situation.

Oh, more of an annoyance than a bother. I just think the .45 thing is overcooked. I mean, I know that you can blow up a tanker truck with a 1911 shooting .45 ACP because I saw it happen in Thelma & Louise, but you don't have to always rub it in. :cool:
